<p style="text-align: center;">Lunchtime on a road trip will find you in 1 of 2 places. That&#8217;s right. You&#8217;re either at camp, or&#8230;somewhere else. If that &#8216;somewhere else&#8217; ends up being on the road between stops, then this is the place to start for deciding on menus that work in your vehicle, on your tailgate or while picnicking &#8216;somewhere else&#8217;.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">While we all have different ideas about how we like to picnic, one thing I have learned is that it&#8217;s best not to try and prepare lunch while driving. Eddie doesn&#8217;t like to talk about it, but I have the mustard stains to prove it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Eddie and I often eat on the road (having stopped of course), and one thing that comes in very handy is our small cooler that plugs into the truck&#8217;s cigarette lighter. I pack what we&#8217;ll need for our lunch in the morning, and keep it plugged in until we stop. I make sure to include disposable plates, silverware, napkins and a drink to share. We keep our water bottles handy in the front seat, so sometimes we&#8217;ll share a soda or a tea for a little variety.</p>

<h5 style="text-align: center;">One other thing that has really been handy is to pre-plan your meals a day or 2 ahead. That way you can utilize supper leftovers for a picnic lunch the next day.</h5>
<h5 style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Okay! To get started with ideas for picnic lunches on the road, we&#8217;ll look at 7 different meal options </strong></em></h5>
<p style="text-align: left;">1). Meat (any cooked variety or Tuna) &; Cheese Sandwiches, Chips (I like the small individual bags), Fruit &; Drink</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">2). Peanut Butter &; Jelly / Honey Sandwiches, Chips, Fruit &; Drink<img data-attachment-id="4478" data-permalink="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/2019/08/04/picnic-lunches-on-the-road/buygroceries/" data-orig-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/buygroceries.jpg" data-orig-size="656,436" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{";aperture";:";0";,";credit";:";";,";camera";:";";,";caption";:";";,";created_timestamp";:";0";,";copyright";:";";,";focal_length";:";0";,";iso";:";0";,";shutter_speed";:";0";,";title";:";";,";orientation";:";0";}" data-image-title="buygroceries" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/buygroceries.jpg" data-large-file="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/buygroceries.jpg" class=" wp-image-4478 alignright" src="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/buygroceries.jpg" alt="Lunch on the road" width="342" height="227" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">3). Taco Salad (I use leftover meat from tacos), Fritos or Corn Chips, Fruit &; Drink</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">4). Ham &; Cheese Roll ups (I save some ham steak pieces from dinner and use them in the tortilla), Fruit &; Drink</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">5). <a href="https://roadtripsandtinytrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/JANELLES-ASIAN-NOODLE-JARS.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">ASIAN NOODLE JARS</span></strong></a>, Pita Chips, Fruit &; Drink</p>
