insulated lunch bags walmart image
phammy
My Science club is going on a hiking trip soon. I've never been hiking before so I am wondering what kind of food I should pack for lunch and dinner and I do not want to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches the whole time.
Thanks.
Answer
Check with other members from your club. They probably have great ideas about what you can pack and where you can get it from. You have not give alot of info about the accommodations so it is hard to say. If there is a campfire at the lunch or dinner site, you can freeze bottle of drinking water and place it in an insulated bag along with a fresh bag of salad. There are plenty of dressings that only require room Temperature prior to opening. (They are marketed for the lunch crowd). Hidden valley ranch makes really cute small travel cups of dressing that would be perfect. The frozen bottles of water would keep the lettuce cool.
MRE's from a military surplus store make for great meals and they usually have alot of variety.If you have an outdoors store in your area (LIKE DICKS SPORTING GOODS) they have freeze dried meals.
In walmart you can find starkist tuna kits. They have relish, mayo and crackers in a kit with a spoon and crackers. you can mix it together to make tuna and crackers for an easy and cheap lunch. If you choose this option be sure to bring a few zip lock baggies so that you can take your trash with you and it wont stink upyour bag.
Trail mix will make for a good snack (walmart sells this also or you can make your own) for unbetween meal energy.

cold omlette for work lunch?
Becki
Would a thin omelette (like http://thisleanjourney.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Omelette-Wrap.png ) be good for lunch? I was planning on treating it like a wrap, but we don't have a fridge or anything to keep it in, so would it be ok just in my lunchbox for 4 hours? Would it go off? Would it even taste ok? I was just going to put ham cheese and tomatos in it? what do you think?
Answer
Make the wrap and put it in the freezer, wrapped well in foil and then newspaper. It should thaw by the time you're ready to eat it and still be chilled.
I personally would leave the egg out, because I don't like cold eggs (unless it's egg salad).
If you don't have a fridge at work, invest in one of those small, insulated, soft lunch coolers or bags, and then you don't have to worry about keeping your food cold. Target and Walmart have them and they're not very expensive.
