Road Trip Snacks

I love to travel.  My husband’s family lives 15 hours away and we usually make at least 1 trip a year back there.  In the car. Which makes for a long day of sitting. By the time we get there, it feels like I am really tired (which seems odd considering I can sleep literally the whole way there) and my belly isn’t usually feeling the best.

I always make sure to pack healthy snacks and a few other essentials along for the ride! Posted below is what I took with me on a recent trip.

Fresh Cut Vegetables: Always a good option. You can make guacamole to dip them in or if your body can handle dairy, get some organic sour cream and add in spices (onion, garlic, parsley, dill, pink salt) to make your own dip!

Larabars: I love these bars! Although high in sugar, the sugar comes from dates which I personally love. There are usually very few ingredients in these bars and they are always WHOLE foods! You can also get a variety of flavors! Score! (photo from Vitacost.com)

Dark Chocolate: One of my favorites.

Water: lots and lots! 🙂 Fill up a (stainless steel or glass) bottle and bring an extra gallon to fill it up with later!

Last but not least is my DigestZen oil from doTERRA. My stomach usually feels a little bloated after a long day in the car and this oil offers some relief.
