What are your favorite portable meals?
Sandwiches are one example of an easy and portable meal component, because they’re not too messy, and they don’t need to stay cold. But one can only eat so many plain-jane peanut butter sandwiches before it gets old. (Oh forget that; I could eat pb sandwiches every day for the next hundred years and not get sick of them.) One day last week, for the sake of variety—and because experimentation is so much fun—I strayed from the pb-sandwich road, with this:

Carrot Cake Sandwich
- Shredded carrot
- Raisins
- Crushed walnuts
- Cinnamon
- Cream cheese, such as Tofutti OR coconut butter or Cheesecake Mousse
- sweetener of choice, if desired
Close it all up in a whole wheat pita and you’re good to go.


















Oh, that sandwish looks great! My favourite on-the-go meals are almost-instant rolled oats with dates and nuts (just add boiling water) or a big bowl of homemade museli.
Sorry to hear of your e-mail woes. We had similsr issues at work recently and I know how frustrating it can be. Although, when it was all fixed I received 32 ‘lost’ e-mails from my husband that made me smile. 🙂 I hope your new e-mail address will work better for you.
I love fruit and nutbutters! Those are my favorite, or homemade bars. Occasionally a good train mix works, too. 🙂
That looks so good! I’ll admit it, bars are my fav. And apples. I usually keep them both in my purse 😉
For on the go, definetly bars– I Love lunas and clifs!
OMG I know what I’m having for lunch today!!!
I always carry nuts in my purse. And these crunchy granola bars with oats that my mom calls “horse food” 🙂
oh katie, you are so pretty! 🙂 and talented! come be my personal chef? i NEED that sandwich in my life!
I rock a PB&J a lot. It’s such a low maintenance and filling lunch. I keep a box of Larabars in my desk at work for easy snack. They help me stay out of the vending machines! And jars full of nuts and dried fruit are good too.
Delicious! Def. going to try this!
