Forget about fast food. Your road trip menu needs an upgrade, and you can do it all yourself using QVC’s broad selection and super-convenient shopping experience. All it takes to elevate your road trip meals is a bit of prep and a few key products from QVC that you can buy from home on your TV, digital device or even your phone.
The best snacks and meals on the road start at home. Prep some fresh ingredients, store them for the long haul and enjoy when you’re ready. Here are some easy tips to make your road trip food delicious, even if you’re pressed for time before you press the gas.
The rundown
- With a little prep, you can save money and enjoy delicious homemade snacks during your next road trip.
- Fresh fruits and protein-packed meat can keep you properly fueled for long days behind the wheel.
- QVC has everything you need, from food storage containers that keep your snacks fresh to rechargeable blenders that can make even long trips healthier.
Blend for easy sipping
With two hands on the wheel, it’s hard to get two hands on a sandwich. A smoothie or shake you can sip through a straw is a more car-friendly meal. The KitchenAid Go Cordless Personal Blender features a 16-ounce capacity and comes with a travel lid to keep everything contained until you’re ready to sip. You can even buy a battery (not included) so you can use this convenient three-speed powerhouse on the go.
Or bump up to the Ninja Blast 18-oz Portable Rechargeable Blender. This one’s USB-rechargeable, perfect for topping off in the hotel room after a long day on the road. It also comes with a sip lid, not to mention a blade cover that keeps the unit safely stowed when not in use. Both of these small blenders are so convenient you may find yourself using them at home too.
Store and snap for fresh snacking
A bag of chips from the gas station is nice every once in a while, but how about fresh fruit on the go or even some prepared meats and cheeses? Storage options from QVC’s convenient and curated collections make this possible and super easy.
If you’re traveling solo, keep the Caraway Home 6.6-Cup Glass Food Container with Lid handy, and you can grab fresh food as you travel. Air-release technology releases air from the container and keeps your food fresher for longer. It’s an ideal size for a sandwich or snacks for one.
If the whole family will be joining you on your next adventure, you’ll want to grab the JoyFul by JoyJolt 24pc Glass Leakproof Storage Containers. This set features 24 sizes of glass storage containers to suit just about any on-the-road meal you can dream up.
More importantly, the lids snap closed to ensure a tight seal. You can shrug off the anxiety of wondering whether your food is slopping all over the back seat; these containers all seal tightly for freshness and peace of mind. When you get to the hotel room, you can even pop them in the microwave. They’re dishwasher-safe on top of that.
Be ready for anything with the right tools
If you find yourself in need of a stop at the grocery store or gas station convenience store, it helps to be ready for anything with the KitchenAid Gourmet Multi Function Can Opener. Quick and simple meals are at the ready with this inexpensive and small tool. And it comes with a built-in bottle opener in case you want to crack open a refreshing soda or beer once the driving is done.
