Meal Prep for your next trip

If you want to save money on your vacations, start HERE. Meal prepping at home will save you loads of money, and keep you eating healthier🙌🏼 Here’s how we do it.
📌SAVE FOR MENU BELOW
1. Write out EVERYTHING you will need to buy, pack, or make on your menu for the trip.
2. Shop at your house first, see what you already have, then write your shopping list from there.
3. I plan meals that require simple prep work on the trip or just re-heating. My vacation time is too valuable to be spending hours cooking rather than playing.
4. Start 2 days before your trip, buy everything you need at the store, then the day before is meal prep day. Reserve a few hours in the kitchen.
5. You’ll be amazed what you can make in a short amount of time when you are solely focused on meal prepping.
6. Go through your list and lay everything you need to pack on the counter, this way you see exactly what you have and if you’re missing anything.
7. Packing time! Dry food in a bin, cold food in your cooler. Snacks in a small bin up close!
8. I choose to make a lot of our meals, breads or treats from scratch because I love baking, but even if you buy from the store, it will still be cheaper than eating out every meal!
9. Even before we had a van, we still prepped and ate like this on trips. We would eat in our hotel room, heat up food in the hotel microwave and eat dinner in the lobby. No excuses😂

Is this for camping or like a road trip to a destination? Camping thats smart asf. If its a road trip, do you still allow eating out once you reach the destination or? Looks great!

Trying to figure this out too!

Thank you! so we primarily camp out of our van so this is the way we eat 95% of the time. You can definitely still eat out if you like to, we just don't in order to save more money, and we like my cooking better than most places haha. We pack food for along our drive and have even busted out our little one burner stove and heated up food in a gas station parking lot along our drives as well lol. But overall it saves so much time during trips! If we were going to be staying at Airbnb's I most likely wouldn't prep as intensively, but for when we are out camping, its so amazing to be able to just warm up/cook food I've already prepped and have it be ready in 15-20 minutes tops!
