When you're in a real holiday or even when you just take a weekend, your meals can be fun stages of your day instead of the subjects of his nightmares; and speaking of nightmares, the cost of food can eat a large part of your vacation budget. Here are some tips to help you eat better, spend less and, as a result of both, maybe even sleep better during your trip.
-1 breakfast:
Start your day with a healthy breakfast, and by definition, excludes "Just take a donut for the road." Not that there's anything wrong with the donuts, but donuts and pastries are rich in sugar and fat - sugar can give you a boost in the morning but does not last long and half of your day will be looking for a second breakfast or lunch.
Your best bet for breakfast is to eat a balanced meal, like their other meals: Many hotels and motels offer a continental breakfast - it just means a buffet with a wide variety of breakfast foods - everything you need and what you should be looking for! Work your way around the buffet offers find bread, biscuits and English muffins next to a toaster, jams, jellies and syrups for spreading or pouring your choice toast, assorted cold cereal with milk or oatmeal, sometimes hot, a little fruit for garnish or mix with his cereal and then there's the yogurt, orange juice, grapefruit juice and tea or coffee. If you skip the continental breakfast and go for a meal in a restaurant, the same rules apply a balanced breakfast, but you'll be able to add the eggs, bacon, sausages and table service to the mix.
With breakfast finished, will have a "full tank" that keep you going through their morning activities and focus on enjoying a full program instead of being distracted by an empty stomach.
-2 lunch:
When you think about it, it makes sense to have your main meal in the middle of the day - especially when you're on the go. What you are doing is packing on the calories and in their work late blight. This also makes good financial sense; many restaurants have lunch specials that include all the things you'll be able to buy later at dinner - at a higher price.
If staying in a hotel or motel, ask the receptionist or concierge at your favorite restaurant. You can get a hint of a restaurant serving local favorite dishes; this is a good way to enhance your travel experience with some real local flavor.
The rule to eat a balanced meal for lunch works well as it does with all other meals. You can start your meal with a salad with a favorite dressing or a fruit salad or fruit salad or a salad that could be a main course - there are some (symmetric) entrees salads wonderfully filling and healthy with pieces chicken, ham, bacon, seasoned croutons and a world of other ingredients. Depending on where you go you may just want to experiment a bit with some local favorite menu items - ask your waiter or waitress to come up with something and be sure to ask about the ingredients, if there is something you know you do not should eat.
Do not skip dessert! Small or iced, with or without a lid or a piece of cake or pie is a good way to end your meal (remember, this is your big meal of the day).
-3 Snacks:
"Just in case" the food is always a good idea when you're on the go. It can go visit or just to travel when you have the urge to stop and buy something that is always possible, but it's really a waste of money if you have a snack bag stowed in your bag or backpack "eat something." - In addition, a stop along the tour route to buy something means your pay inflated tourist prices! How to build your own bag of snacks is to stop at a grocery store and buy dried fruit, nuts, raisins, cookies and something to put on crackers like peanut butter or cheese. Keep your bite handy bag!
-4 dinner:
After the great lunch you should be looking for a light meal to end the day - it's good for your waistline and give you a better night's sleep. A good idea and Economic food for the end of the day is to combine this trip, I had to make at the grocery store for snacks with a little shopping for dinner. Get some tasty cold cuts, bread and cheese for sandwiches and fruit for dessert.
Many hotels and motels have small refrigerators in the rooms and many even have a microwave; When booking a place to select and use these services. Make your own dinner can be a significant savings on your holiday budget and may even save you enough to spend an extra day visiting an attraction that might otherwise have skipped.
-5 Back at home!:
It's always good to be home and only if it does not happen for you, you might look at some of these tips and food expenditure and apply them to your diet and your food budget even when you 're on the road.
