What are some quick easy meal ideas for when we are on vacation?

Category: quick meal ideas

I’m looking for some quick and easy meal ideas that don’t contain a lot of ingredients. My husband, our 6 year old and myself are going to Orlando for 2 weeks in December. We will be spending most days at Disney or enjoying other attractions. We plan to eat out some but in order to stay within budget we will often be making meals at our rented house.

bbq chicken drums (chicken w/a handle as my son calls them)

Pasta w/ sauce

Basic salad w/ beans and tomato’s

    If possible, freeze some items and take them with you. Meatballs, meatloaf, casseroles freeze well and you wouldn’t have to purchase many items to make full meals with them.
    Many stores in Florida have semi-made meals in their deli/meat sections. While these are more costly than preparing them yourself they are still cheaper than eating out.
