Check out my progress on A Moveable Feast
Contrary to my post’s title this evening, what follows is not a book report on that most lauded work by Ernest Hemingway. Instead, I present you with the more foodie-tastic topic of portable eats.
Using your suggestions from Friday’s post, I came up with a wide array of snacks to bring along for our long car ride tomorrow. Observe our moveable feast:
I also plan on throwing in a few sticks of string cheese and maybe an emergency box of Tofurky.
Everything is packed up and ready to go—as soon as I get out of class tomorrow, the road trip begins!
For those of you in the US, how are you spending the Thanksgiving holiday?
Despite my excitement for vacation to begin, I had to endure a rather torturous day of work and class. At least I had some tasty eats to cheer me up.
Nothing like a parfait to start the day.
I packed some Spinach Hummus for lunch…largely because of its Christmas-y colors.
By the time I returned home, I was starving—I needed something quick and filling. Curried Tofu Salad to save the day!
Before I go, I wanted to show you a card I received in the mail today. I won’t be spending Thanksgiving at home with my parents this year, so my mom sent the perfect card to let me know she’s thinking of me:

Awww I LOVE that card. Safe travels tomorrow. Have fun visiting the ‘rents
Say hi to Seth for me.
Lotsa tasty snax. Pretzel crisps are the best.
Good luck and have fun on your road trip! I just returned from one
This Thanksgiving, I’ll be spending it with family and “the suave one.”
That card is super cute. So nice of your family to give you up for the holiday
I hope you enjoy it – looks at least like you’ll have enough to eat.
wowzas you are a traffic snack queen! looks like your road trip is sponsored by trader joe’s hahaha
that thanksgiving day card is ADORABLE! your mainsqueeze is the cutest!
car snacks are the best!!
have a safe trip
What a cute card!
I bought some spinach hummus at Whole Foods the other day that is divine. I think it uses frozen spinach though, because it has a really strong spinach flavour that I don’t think you would get with baby spinach. So bright and green too – must make my own copy cat version
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Have fun on your road trip? Any games planned? LOL.
That card is adorable!!
Super cute card– how awesome she found one so perfect for you!
Love the snack array– well done. Seth with be snacking healthily because of you! Have an amazing time with Seth’s parents, by the way. I’m sure you’ll have a blast and can’t wait to hear how it goes!
I’ll be spending Thanksgiving at my cousins with the whole family gang. I’m bringing my own vegan entrees– super excited about that! We’ll see how people prefer them to turkey and creamed spinach!
That card is adorable. Have a safe ride and a very happy Thanksgiving holiday
What a cute card! It looks like you’re prepared and all ready to go for your road trip. I hope you and Seth have a wonderful time! Make sure to play some car-spotting games/sing some sing-a-longs for me
.
Have a lovely day!
xox
yay i just bought some tofu and that curried salad looks delish! also love your parfait..!!!! nutbutter action!
you’ve got so many goodies for the road trip!
Have fun!
I love dunking my pita bread in hummus, but always forget about it for lunch!
That is quite possibly the cutest card I have ever seen.
That card is adorable! Curried tofu salad sounds amazing. I definitely have to make some.
We are spending half of Thanksgiving Day with my taller half’s family and the other half with my dad’s family. I wasn’t able to get out of one of them, unfortunately. Splitting a holiday is way, way too exhausting. Have a safe trip!
I am such an overpacker for car trips, but it’s always worth it because variety is key! The card your mom send you is amazing! It would suit me quite well, too.
What a perfect card!! And that spinach hummus looks incredible..combining two of the best foods!!
I’m spending Thanksgiving at home but ALL of my relatives from out of town are coming in. So excited!
It’s actually one of the few Thanksgivings I’ve spent away from my Mom, too
I’m feeling generally excited to be with M, but got a little sad tonight!
