Traveling across a state or across the country can be a daunting trip, or it can be fun. But, what to do if you have food allergies? No one wants frequent rest stop visits and snacking in the car helps accumulate more miles between meal stops. Especially when you are traveling with one who wants to drive as many miles as possible before stopping for the night. I know some of my family members like to drive straight through, without putting up for the night, when driving from Michigan to Florida. I have found some great products to keep on hand for such trips.
Glutino pretzels are especially good by themselves or with a combination of peanuts,
Chocolate or Cinnamon Chex, and M&M's. You can make your own mix or simply look for one of the recipes listed on the Chex site. Glutino also makes great wafer cookies that satisfy even the biggest sweet graver. Make sure to pack lots of cold water, lemonade or iced coffee to cool your thirst. And don't forget those great tasting goodies you can make to have your own continental breakfast!
Betty Crocker can help with a quick mix to make your own cookies or muffins to load into your snack box. I know I can hardly wait to make the trip now that I know what I will bring! Oh! One more trick to survive those restaurant stops when everyone is ordering breakfast and you don't want to just settle for an omelet and want some toast. Bring your own bagel or bread with you!
Udi's makes the greatest bread and bagels!!! Just wrap one up and bring it in with you. One more thing to remember, many restaurants have gluten free menus now, just remember to ask. Enjoy! and I hope your summer travels are as safe, happy and as fun as mine are going to be this year.
