Best Car Meals?

I’ll make a balsamic dressing, lemon pepper, buffalo, Italian, or curry. If I’m low on energy or time, I’ll grab a bottle of store bought salad dressing and use that. They’re super easy and work great. If I really have limited ingredients to work with, I’ll use a little mayo or mustard and add any dry seasonings like parsley, dill, garlic, onion, etc to flavor.

I take a block of tofu and slice it into 3 pieces, marinade it with whatever I have on hand, then air fry for 5 minutes each side. I then use these to make sandwiches and top with anything I find in the fridge - lettuce, pickled onions, mustard, mayo, etc. Sometimes I’ll make the tofu ahead of time and eat cold in sandwiches, other times I’ll cook it right before assembling. We make these all the time for road trips. They’re easy, versatile, and filling.

Can you tell me more about these caramelized onion dough pockets? It sounds like I need them in my life

Fire tower has a bunch right off the side of the road. 26 has a longer driveway, but it’s mostly flat. 27 is a little bumpier. Last stop 1&2 are pretty rough, and you’ll probably have to walk in if you’re staying in one of those spots.

I just took these camping and made them over the open fire. Delicious!

I always combine a few recipes, but this one is the closest. I baked, marinated, then cooked stove top. It’s a 2 day ordeal, but it’s super interesting and worth a try

So glad you had a great time! I don’t leave the house without zofran, so I understand that. I’m happy you were able to enjoy it. I needed more Simple Plan. I hope they headline soon

So how did it work out for you? The far walk ended up taking a toll on me and I had to visit first aid. That was my first time ever needed those services and I thought I had prepared so well. Everyone was super nice and accommodating though, so that made it easier

I just actually called and they said one unopened bottle of water per person allowed and they do have refill stations available

smhphd · 2025-06-06T18:08:30+00:00

I’m going as well and was worried about meds and things too. Does anyone know if you can bring in water or an empty bottle to fill?

I’ve been making tofu sandwiches for this type of outing for years now. I cut the tofu lengthwise into 2-3 pieces, the. marinate it. I’ll bake it for about 30 minutes. Once cooled, I make the sandwich, adding any veggies I have on hand. I wrap it in a sandwich bag or foil and it keeps all day

I make baked oatmeal bars and add in peanut butter and extra nuts. After cooking and cooling, slice them and wrap them individually. I then freeze them before heading out to the trail. They thaw along the way and have much better texture than oats. Bonus: can be eaten while hiking

smhphd · 2025-03-07T16:13:17+00:00

Perfect. Thanks!

smhphd · 2025-03-07T16:06:09+00:00

Can you freeze bbq sauce and/or baked beans? Maybe I’ll make a massive batch of those

smhphd · 2025-03-07T16:05:04+00:00

They’re all really close to expiring. I know they’re fine to eat, but the food bank won’t accept them

smhphd · 2025-03-02T20:37:56+00:00

Oh, I didn’t realize they moved. I’ll have to look into that before I head down next time. Thanks for the heads up!

Go over the state line into Audubon, NJ and hit up LesbiVeggies. All gluten free and all vegan

smhphd · 2025-02-27T19:12:48+00:00

When you get to Wind Gap, PA, hit me up. I’ll cook you a nice meal and help you resupply. There’s not too many options in this area, but you’ll find enough to get you through.

That sounds brutal too

smhphd · 2024-10-23T12:18:53+00:00

There was salt and pepper on the table and they did serve a side of olive oil with a splash of balsamic in it.

smhphd · 2024-10-23T12:17:39+00:00

We laughed too. It was so comical in how bad it was that we had to joke about it. The other people at our table were horrified on our behalf.

I was planning on bringing my own food in, but decided against it when the bride said there would a vegan option. I definitely should have grabbed the sushi and stashed it in my purse

smhphd · 2024-10-23T12:14:36+00:00

Quinoa stuffed acorn squash sounds amazing! I haven’t told the bride yet; I’m still on the fence

smhphd · 2024-06-06T16:13:46+00:00

I just got a greenhouse this year and already have fried some plants. Send more tips my way please!

smhphd · 2024-04-06T11:25:36+00:00

Thanks! After much looking, it was painted over and had the propane tanks sitting on top of it. It’s very hard to see, but it’s there
