Let’s face it: aside from singing along to great music, the best thing about road trips is having delicious snacks to munch on.
Nothing dampens the fun quite like food we don’t enjoy! But, food that’s good for us isn’t usually tasty. So, you have to know which snacks to pack to have fun (while staying healthy) on the road!
Muffins
They’re tasty and filling and they don’t make (that much of) a mess! Try this great Apple Banana Muffin recipe.
Yogurt
Squeezable and drinkable forms of tasty yogurt are sure to be a hit with the kids!
Fresh Fruit
A good idea would be to buy whatever’s in season as long as they’re easy to peel and eat!

Nuts
Honey roasted peanuts, almonds, or mixed nuts make for excellent snacks on the road.
Seeds
Sunflower seeds take a bit of effort and you’ll need a bag to discard the empty ones into but they’re really fun to eat when on a long trip.
Veggie sticks
Why not cut up vegetable sticks like carrot and celery and pair with a homemade dip like thousand island?
Baked Potato Chips
For your road trip savory cravings, make sure you have a bunch of baked potato chips.

BLT Sandwiches
There’s nothing like a classic Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato sandwich to chase your worries away. Choose soft, wheat bread and you can even try adding avocado spread to give it a creamy, buttery flavor. Learn how to make your own avocado spread here.
Smoothies
Blend them at home and pour into spill-proof tumblers! Try whipping up this Easy Strawberry Smoothie and sip your cares away.
Fruit juice
Make sure that it’s either freshly squeezed or unsweetened. Pack it in a cooler along with the smoothies for maximum enjoyment!
