RAW Road Trip.....HELP!

[JennyPat]

I am new to RAW, I have been only since June 23rd.

In one week I will be leaving on a road trip, we will be driving, 2 days each way. To a convention, while at the convention I will be working from 9am to 7pm 5 days in a row. Then driving home again. I will not have access to a refrigerator, although I will have a small cooler with me.

My DH is not RAW, we will be eating most of our meals in restaurants. While I know I can do salads, I expect that after a couple days I will be tired of them! Especially when driving, as the only choices will be from mostly fast food places. I know my DH will want to go to someplace like Bob Evans or Denny's for breakfast every day.

What I need are suggestions (and recipes) as to what I can make ahead of time to bring with me. I know I can usually do fruit for breakfast, but I need something that I can bring with me to the convention. Something easy to snack on in between customers that won't spoil. I also need suggestions as to what to order at the restaurants in the evening. I am usually FAMISHED by the end of the day, and know that this is going to be a real struggle. We usually go to awesome (not Raw) restaurants at this convention. And I am sure my DH will want to go to them again.

I do have Alissa's book, and see a few things that might work. But I have no experience as to how they will keep, unrefrigerated.

Thanks
Jenny P

Do you have a dehydrator? If so, I suggest making a batch of crakers and/ or fruit leathers before hand.
and pack that in the cooler and beef up your restaurant salads and spread on your crackers.

Why not invest in a handheld travel blender, they are like 20-30$ at Target, and then you can make smoothies for breakfast and/or blended soups.

Make Alissa's Fudge Balls or an equivalent munchie and pack those in the cooler.

Bring avocadoes to beef up your restaurant salads.

Make a raw salad dressing and keep in the cooler.

buy fruits and veggies to snack on from local health food or grocery stores where you are stay.

- Im about to go on a road trip to, so my mind is on this subject :) good luck
