You know, sometimes road trips are full of the worst kind of food. Truck stop hot dogs, soggy food van chips, convenience store sandwiches. Yick. Not good.

And sometimes road trips lead to expensive meals at cafes or pubs you have never been to, money thrown away on things you’d never want again. Has that ever happened to you?

Well. I’m here to tell you that your trip doesn’t need to be like that. Nope. You can get super organised and make yourself some extra delicious snacks which will comfort and fortify you on your travels.  No more do you need to court that soggy lettuce.  Never again will a packet of salt and vinegar chips constitute afternoon tea.  Not once, will you mop up gristle-y gravy with stale French stick and wonder where you’ve gone wrong.

We can do MUCH better than that.  We can make delicious road trip snacks. Yep. These are the kind of snacks which will keep you snack happy.  These are the kind of snacks that laugh in the face of limp lettuce.  Let’s take a peek…

What do you like to eat on your road trip?  Do you fancy a bit of a crunchy granola bar? Do you want to make like Neil Diamond?

    Spanish style tortilla for dinner tmo even though we are not going on a road trip! The granola bars on the weekend for school lunches (love the sneaky pumpkin in it!) and planning to make that amazing Pan Bagnet Nicoise for a day trip on the Cup Long Weekend coming up.
    Thank you for the inspiration.
