Eating healthy when on-the-go can be tough at times – that is unless you plan ahead. Here are a few tips Bob and I follow whether we are driving across the states or flying around the world!

IN THE AIR…

• Take advantage of the special meals. I usually order the fruit platter and Bob orders the vegetarian.
• Bring a stash of green bars (which I divide between Bob and I or he will eat mine too!)
• Load up on the raw nuts & seeds such as almonds, cashews, macs, sunflower and pumpkin.
• and I almost always bring a few baggies of dried mango, apple, apricots and other dried fruits!

***warning***
Some countries do not allow raw nuts to enter (no pun intended)!
Out of 19 countries we have only had problems with one! Can you guess which one?

ON THE ROAD…

• Pack a mixture of raw nuts, dried fruit, fresh fruit, granola and lots of bottled water.
• Bring fresh salad, cut up veggies and humus for a road-side
  picnic. Oh and don’t forget to pack paper plates, forks and napkins. Believe it or not.. I’ve done just that.
• or just GPS for the closest Panera’s!

…OR NO TIME TO PREPARE!

We just returned from Asia and are headed to Texas, so no time to plan for this road trip!

Thank goodness for Whole Foods! We grabbed a bag of greens, cut up veggies, bottle of Cindy’s Kitchen Wild Main Blueberry dressing, raw nuts and seeds, some veggie spring rolls, my favorite jar of fermented Zing Salad, a few bottles of Kombucha, Coconut water and Bragg’s Apple Cinnamon Vinegar drinks. Threw in a few plates, forks and napkins and we are off!

Sometimes though I find myself grabbing for the same old thing over and over and would love to hear new ideas. Drop us a comment below on your on-the-go healthy eating tips!  

Happy healthy traveling!

PS!
Oh and while we were at Whole Foods, we found the most delicious ALL RAW dessert ever - Merry’s Miracle Tarts! Couldn’t decide between the Meyer Lemon, Chocolate Mint or Chocolate Almond Butter - so we bought all three!

Here’s a peek at the Chocolate Almond Butter.. Mmmm!
