Healthy Menu For Road Trip and Camping Meal Ideas
Traveling with food allergies can be difficult. And parents traveling with a child, or children with severe food allergies, should plan ahead to make sure they are filled with healthy food to feed the family when not at home.
Here is a list of some of our favorite dishes that you can eat on long journeys by car and at the campsite. We prepare some of the food in advance and freeze it so that it is heated in our 12 V cook top on the go. Since we cannot take the opportunity to eat in a restaurant or hope to find a health food store on our long journeys through the back streets, this system has helped us leave the house and be miles away.
Other great food options are now available in boxes and packaging at local health food stores, which is very convenient. I make all our bread from scratch, including waffles, donuts, crackers, scones, pie crusts, etc. However, many of these items are also milk and preservative-free and available at your health food store.
