Food is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of a road trip.

It seems like my brain thinks that the car is calorie free and it is not.

So preparation is the key to staying on track.

It needs to be easy, healthy and portable.

You never know what you will end up doing on a BOWEN FAMILY ROAD TRIP so you must be prepared for anything.

 

 

Here are some favorites that always go on a road trip:

almond crackers roasted red pepppers

pesto from our CSA share, gotta love a CSA share

macaroons these are a little to sweet but we still like them

brazil nuts

cheese sticks

amano chocolate water bottles…. glass of course always glass.

energy squares,  actually this is a new addition I found on twitter. I will see how they are.

apples, grapes and strawberries are a must have.

homemade granola bars

and our favorite jerky maple walnuts are a must have

and a bag of peanut M&M’s. Here is the dumb thing. No one eats them.

We burned our kids out on them. But it is tradition and traditions die hard.

So that is all sounding pretty boring to me.

What do you pack on a road trip?

Give me some ideas………

I take a break from supplements while we trip. I figure it is nice to give my body a break every now and again.

This trip we are headed to Colorado to tour some green building sites and take a herb class.

We will be staying in a straw-bale bed and breakfast. How cool is that?
