While we all love homemade snacks, what about those spur of the moment trips. Or maybe you are heading to the swimming pool or park where it’s going to be hot and you don’t want anything melting.

No worries – I have some ideas for you! We have packed up my favorite picnic basket, full of delicious snacks.

Road Trip Snacks

  • Chips – Pringles are easy because the can is resealable keeping them fresh longer
  • Gold Fish – we LOVE the Flavor Blasted Xtra Cheddar – they are actually kind of addicting
  • Fruit Snacks – well, Cars – of course
  • Peanuts – great for protein
  • Granola Bars – also a great healthy alternative
  • Apples – fresh fruit is always a good choice
  • Fruit Roll-ups – one of my favorites, I always have a few in my purse, especially when I’m flying
  • Candy – I couldn’t help myself, I just had to pack something sweet

      Hi Melissa- Hope these snacks help! That is a long road trip!

    2. Found a list of snack from Trader Joe’s. We are moving from Az to Texas in a couple of weeks and found the list posted on their website. I figured it would be healthier for us.
