Vegan to go - with kids
Posted by off_grid_momma on Jan 19, 2013 · Member since Jan 2013 · 3 posts
I am a momma of a 5 and 7 year old. We live in a rural area and have to travel a minimum of 35 miles to go to a store. nearest health food store is 85 miles from our home. Trips to the city are difficult at times. It is really hard to find any vegan food options along the way between home and the city.
Recently, I found on Pinterest an idea of placing nut butter in the bottom of a recycled jar or container, then add celery sticks. While I love this, it doesn't always go over well with the kids. We don't use packaged foods due to my own health issues. I am wondering if anyone has tried and true ideas for portable foods that we can pack up and carry with us when away from home.
Thanks!
Instead of the celery, you can use apples. Cut them in sticks. Or carrotts (my kids love them!). Grapes would probably be good, they're not messy. But if they fall, you might never find it! Lol
I'll try to think of more. I need to start figuring out what are some travel friendly foods as well. :)
