With a microwave, fridge, a bowl and a spoon, you can eat like a queen!

Oatmeal is my normal breakfast when travelling, and NOT the crummy, overly sweet "instant" stuff. Just mix 1/2 cup of oatmeal with one cup of water in your bowl. Mix and put in microwave for one minute. Stir. Put it back in the microwave for another minute. KEEP AN EYE ON IT. As it cooks, it will start to rise in the middle. I think of it like a little oatmeal volcano. If you walk away from it, you will end up with a boiled over mess. (Ask me how I know this... ) But if you keep an eye on it, just stir it once or twice as it starts to rise and it won't boil over. Remove from the microwave and let it sit for a minute or two (preferably covered with something flat, if you have it) to allow the water to completely absorb into the oatmeal. Top with a baggie of nuts/raisins/seeds, etc. Can also top with a freshly sliced banana.

Apples and bananas travel best and don't need refrigeration. I often carry grapes in a tupperware container.

I always stock my mini fridge with yogurt. Cereal or granola makes a nice topping as does fruit.

A loaf of bread, some deli sliced cheese & turkey, and some condiments (brought from home if you are driving, or in fast food packets if you aren't) make great toppings.

I like to stop at a supermarket at my destination if possible. Less to keep cool in a cooler, and sometimes new places have great discoveries. Might be an interesting item or salad in a deli case, etc.

Hope this helps.
