Traveling for the Holidays, or anytime of year?

This video has some great tips for healthy food bring alongs.

I know from first hand experience, it is tough to get healthy foods when you are away from home.

When you are out on the road it can be tricky to find a restaurant that serves quality food. That is quality from a health and wellness standpoint. Airport food is not much better. Sometimes you can make a special request and get something halfway decent.

Then there is the challenge of relatives. They may or may not be very friendly to your healthy eating ways. Nothing wrong with the occasional indulgence, but you may want to have a healthy food stash along to fill in the gaps and minimize the damage provided by days of junk food feasting.

Here are some of the travel foods she suggests with a few of my own ideas thrown in:

• A large salad in a plastic container. Add some dressing right to it like olive oil and apple cider vinegar. You can’t bring liquids on a plane, so that rules out bringing the salad dressing in a separate container.
• Cut up veggie sticks
• Protein powder in a Tupperware container
• pHion Concentrated Juice Formula of 40 Alkaline Grasses, Fruits and Veggies, Go Green with Your Body!
• Flax crackers
• Fresh soaked almonds, or other nuts
• Healthy snack bars
