Road Trip Snacks That Travel Well

We are still living in a time of changed or different vacation plans.

But family road trips are okay!

Whether you’re off to a cottage or making your way to a must-visit in Canada, you need to be sure your family is well fed on the way and road trip snacks are essential.

Here are 4 road trip snacks that travel well:

Baked Pizza Taquitos

This easy-to-eat finger food is filling enough to act as a meal replacement when you’re travelling by car or plane. Feel free to prepare these the day before you leave, storing the unbaked taquitos in the refrigerator, covered in plastic wrap. Pop them in the oven just before you’re ready to go, making sure you leave enough time for them to cool before packing in a lidded container.
