As a wellness warrior, you know that travelling can be a tough time to stay on track with health goals. From Maine to California, gas stations are littered with some of the worst food options, both for your health and for the health of the environment. Just because you’re limited on cooler and trunk space, doesn’t mean you have to give up your healthy ways. Stay true to your goals and get prepping for your next adventure with these easy and nutritious on-the-go snacks.
Protein Bars
When it comes to convenience, protein bars take the cake. Whether you’re looking for healthy, pre-packaged options like our Organic Protein Bars, or you want to take a stab at making your own Peanut Butter and Jelly Protein Bars, there are some great road-worthy options available. When picking out protein bars at the gas station or rest stop, keep an eye on the sugar content. Most store-bought protein bars are loaded with unnecessary sugars. Keep it simple and look for healthy (and tasty) ingredients, high protein, and fiber packed options.
Nutritional Shakes
Nutritional shakes are perfect for an on-the-go meal replacement. Our 26g Organic Protein Shakes are gluten-free, contain only 1 gram of sugar and 3 net carbs. Aside from being deliciously creamy, they’ll also help to keep those cravings at bay when driving past some very questionable roadside restaurants. Don’t want to have to pack multiple shakes for a longer road trip? Then grab a canister of our Organic Plant Based Protein Powder for easy on the go mixing. Just two scoops shaken in your water bottle or even an iced coffee and you’re ready to get back on the road!
Hummus
Hummus is another protein packed favorite and takes up minimal space in the cooler. Homemade hummus is easy to make, inexpensive, and allows you to get creative with your flavors. If you’re looking for some inspiration try out either of these delicious recipes for hummus with an extra boost of nutrition:

Nut ButtersWhether you’re a peanut butter loyalist or opt for almond or sunflower seed butters, road tripping just got a whole lot tastier!

Plus, chances are that the jar also fits into your cupholder, which is a major road trip win!PopcornAs a quick and easy source of complex carbs and fiber, popcorn is the perfect on-the-go and easily customizable road snack.
