Dining on the Road

My cousin responded to one of my blogs by asking questions on “the what, when, where, whys” of living on the road! I will answer these questions in a series of blogs! First questions: what do you eat? How do you get you food? How do you keep your food fresh?

Soda Springs, Idaho

I eat a variety of foods. Breakfast is usually oatmeal cooked over my inside propane stove. A traditional breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast and fruit ? is a good way to start the day. I am more likely to eat cereal in the evening. Also humus and naam bread is one of my favorite meals- am or pm.

Cub River RV Park

Cooking can be done inside over my two burner stove. I can use a campfire for cooking and many RVers have a portable grill. I also carry a portable Camping propane stove for creating an outdoor kitchen.
Most RVs have a refrigerator- usually problematic with issues of freezing food or not being cold enough. Regulating the temperature is a constant. Still very convenient to have!
I also have a sink with running hot & cold water. All in all most RVs/ vans/ trailers have a fully functional kitchen.

Connies kitchen!

I drink a lot of herbal teas so my teapot is used several times each day.
Lunch is usually left overs and / or sandwiches. Easy peasy!
The kitchen contains pots, pans, eating utensils, cooking utensils, containers for leftovers, knives. I have dining settings for two and lots of kitchen towels.

Uncompahgre National Forest

Dinner is usually a salad with pasta, rice, grains, veggies.
I try to keep a two week supply of food that keeps. I have food storage above my sink and two other areas for storage. I have a small pull out pantry. For perishable food a visit to a city with a food store happens 1-2 times a week. While it may seem I am out in the boonies- I am never far from a grocery store!

Cooking outside!

I have vitamins, minerals , probiotics and supplements to help keep me healthy!
