5 Healthy Foods I Pack for a Road Trip
1. Herbal Tea
It’s so easy to get dehydrated on the road when you’re more focused on driving or clicking through that playlist. Plain water can get tiresome over time, so instead I pack herbal tea. I drop a couple of herbal, decaffeinated tea bags (If I don’t need the buzz, I skip the dehydrating caffeinated tea) into a reusable water bottle and fill it with cold water for a slow brew. Think of it as travel-friendly cold brew.
2. Veggies and Dip
All that munching and crunching on raw, cut-up veggies keeps me alert when the trip starts to drag. I like to toss carrot sticks, celery sticks, and broccoli florets in a zip-top bag or airtight container, along with a small container of store-bought hummus or yogurt dip.
