In a few weeks I am flying out to Phoenix to pick up an RV and then drive it back to the East Coast. I will only be bringing a small suitcase with me and the RV will be empty (no plates, cookware, or utensils). I am about 4 months post-op and was looking for some meal suggestions for this week long trip. The RV does have a refrigerator, hot Water, stove, and microwave. My plan at this point is to stop at a Walmart after picking up the RV to pick up supplies for the trip. Here is my partial list at this point:

- Ready made Protein drink (Premier Protein)

- Small frying pan

- Paper plates

- eggs

- Cooked grilled chicken

- Yogurt

- Lunchmeat (turkey)

- Bottled water

Any suggestions for easy to prepare meals for this trip would be appreciated.

Some kind of container you can use to cook in the microwave with would be good. Even disposable coffee cups will do to heat things in there as well as make coffee or tea. Cottage cheese goes with everything when you want protein. Rotisserie chicken, good for meals or to pull apart and snack on. Protein bars, low fat string cheese,nuts,canned tuna or salmon with pull open tops or in foil packs. protein powder can be sprinkled on or stirred into anything, powdered milk. Those are pretty much my must have when camping. Enjoy your trip.

Almonds and string cheese are great suggestions for a road trip. The good news is that I can bring home anything I buy along the way.

I am trying to avoid truck stops and greasy food joints on my trip.

I would get some jerkey. I think it's required to have some Jerky on a road trip LOL

if you have hot Water some single serve meal options would probably be convenient. They have oatmeal, macaroni, mashed potatoes, Soups....

I agree that a road trip across Texas requires jerky.

I might visit my local Walmart to see what single serve options they carry. Oatmeal sounds good. I don't usually buy single serve containers, but they make sense for this trip.

Don't forget a knife, fork ,and spoon to pull apart the chickens and to eat with plus some zip lock baggies as you will have lots of left over food to package up to place in the refrigerator. Good luck on your trip and I hope all goes well.
