It’s no secret, it’s always a little challenge to plan our meals when we go by minivan. It sounds simple, but we must not forget the space, the storage of food in the cooler and most importantly, the time of preparing meals if you don’t want to spend your time cooking! Be aware that meat doesn’t stay fresh very long in a cooler, so try to prioritize dry or cane ingredients. Remember that if you rent a minivan with us, you can order your groceries in bulk before you leave, thanks to our partner BocoBoco<\/a>. So make a list of all your dry ingredients, place your order, and be ready for your trip faster!<\/p>\n\n

A little extra for our Backpackers: We offer you meal ideas with similar ingredients so you don’t have to play Tetris in your cooler!<\/p>\n\n

All the recipes with the little leaf\u2060\ud83c\udf3f<\/strong> are vegan!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

Breakfast <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n
\"breakfast-in-van\"
A good breakfast is the best way to start the day, says Baroudeur!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n

The lunch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

The good thing about sandwiches is that it’s easy to vary them by changing the type of bread, sauce, or even meat. But despite all the options, there are times when you want to eat something other than bread, so here are some ideas that will make a difference.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\udf3fMushrooms and herbs Quinoa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\udf3f Chickpea and Cauliflower Curry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This meal can be partly prepared in advance to make your life easier! If you can’t start making it at home, that’s fine. Simply plan two airtight bags (reusable ideally!)

Orzo casserole with shrimp, garlic and lemon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This tasty recipe is the longest to prepare in our short list, but will satisfy your cravings for an original meal.

We can tell you, when your dinner starts to cook and you smell all the aromas that come out of it, you will be salivating at the thought of eating your supper. Find the recipe right here<\/strong><\/a> <\/p>\n\n

If you have a BBQ, don’t hesitate to use it as an oven. You could cook absolutely everything there: grills, vegetables, but also muffins and lasagna if you are motivated. You’ll just have to watch your cooking a little more often, but everything is possible on the go!<\/p>\n\n

The restaurants<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Yes, when traveling, you can spoil yourself from time to time and eat in local restaurants to discover the specialties of the region! Put aside the fast-food restaurants or chains that you find near you and don’t hesitate to ask the locals. They will be a great help in choosing THE restaurant to try. <\/p>\n\n
