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.
peanut butter and banana sandwiches are my favorite portable/on-the-go meal!! I could never get sick of them!!
LOL Katie I was just on your formspring. That last question was hilarious! Too bad you can’t tell who it’s from!
The carrot cake on the go sandwhich creation? GENIUS! You know me I love love love my carrots I just cant get enough.
Lately? Fudge Babies! I can’t thank you enough for introducing me to them!
I love that carrot cake sandwich! So cute! I like sandwiches or pre-packed salads for on the go, or tubs of leftovers!
How in the world do you get your carrots to be that shredded?
If I have to grab something, I’m in trouble! I usually own the kitchen for like an hour putting everything in a big dish. If I’m on the go, I have to plan way in advance.
That sandwich looks awesome, Katie!
I hope your email problems get solved soon, they sounds like such a pain! Have you considered using something such as Gmail, instead? I never had problems with that, but I was never very fond of my hotmail/msn email, so maybe I’m biased 🙂
I’m actually looking for on-the-go meal ideas as well! I often make sandwiches, but I already eat bread with many of my meals and sometimes I get tired of it. But I also love bread, so sandwiches are usually what I end up taking with me anyway. I also love having a couple pieces of fruit in my bag, or mini muffins!
oooh ymmmy!
Bonnie,
I reeeeaally wanted a gmail account… but it told me that chocolatecoveredkatie was taken! I signed up for one anyway (chocolatecoveredkatie1), but after trying it out for a day, I found the system of comments confusing… probably because I’ve gotten so used to the way hotmail does it. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks lol.
Mini muffins are ALWAYS good to have!!
Lauren,
I think I *might* know anyway 😕
But yeah, talk about creepy!
