Hi Sarah,
Adding on to Kathleen's wonderful suggestion--
I travel with my blender everywhere I drive. I bring protein powder, almond milk, nut butter, instant oats (I cook them in the microwave the night before and store them in the fridge for the morning), and green bananas (I'm on step 7 and so don't want sweet ones).
That way my breakfast shake is always guaranteed. I also add ice from the hotel.
At Subway I've gotten a salad with a double scoop of tuna fish. I bring oatcakes for a brown. I also carry individual packs of nut butter in my purse to put on them. Works great.
Those foil packs of tuna are handy. I've added them to frozen dinners to buff up the protein count and mixed in some frozen veggies like broccoli florets, top with avocado for an easy peasy microwave dinner. I bring a bowl to do this in.
You can bring a bag of those mini potatoes and microwave one at night before bed. You could bring a small bottle of olive oil to use for dipping.
Have a wonderful trip!
