Snacks and Food to Bring on Your Next Trip
Road trips are so much fun, right? However, there is a lot of work involved in planning and implementing them. From deciding where to go, how to get there, and what to do at each point, these are just a few of the things that go into planning a successful road trip. The main part of this is, of course, food. You can’t have a good trip without the best snacks possible. No matter what kind of food you want, there are many different ways to prepare for a trip. Let’s talk about how you can prepare yourself for a successful trip – without stopping for snacks every hour (although that’s nice too). Grab a large Tupperware or a few smaller ones and get started. If you don’t want to treat yourself, you don’t want to think about food when you’re away. To achieve this goal, preparation ahead of time is essential. Otherwise, you’ll be stuck thinking about what to eat next, where to buy it, and how much it will cost you. Preparing everything in advance will save you headaches (and extra money) while also getting you to your destination faster! So the next time you’re out on the road, take a look at this list for inspiration.
Breakfast
Of course, if you’re someone who doesn’t usually eat breakfast, you should skip this one. But if you’re a regular breakfast eater, try to make it easier on yourself when you’re on the go. You’ll probably be leaving early in the morning, so you won’t want to spend a lot of time and effort preparing breakfast. There are plenty of options for breakfast on the go. You can:
- Overnight oats
- Muffins
- Bagel sandwich
- Breakfast
- Protein smoothie
- Hard boiled egg
- Banana bread
- Mini cereal boxes
Lunch And Dinner
Now that we’ve covered breakfast, let’s talk about lunch and dinner options. In the afternoon, you will probably start to feel more hungry. Instead of stopping for fast food, make sure you are prepared and plan your lunch. Here are some ideas for a good lunch or dinner:
- Crazy meat sandwiches with chips and vegetables
- Salad with chicken or tofu
- Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
- Burrito
- Pizza
- Tuna sandwich
- Crackers with meat and cheese
- Ham and cheese rolls
Snacks
We’ve come to the most important part of any trip: snacks! Who doesn’t love to lie back in the passenger seat and eat something delicious while singing along to great music? After all, this is what everyone adores. So to give you some ideas, here are some snack options you can take with you on your next trip:
- Trail mix
- Popcorn, pretzels and chips
- Dry fruit
- Fresh fruit (tip: separate bananas from other foods – sometimes they can make your entire meal smell and taste like bananas)

- Raisins
- Granola/protein bars
