Travel Tips

Road Trips- are not easy if you avoid Wheat and MSG, so i plan ahead. I stocked up on

Cliff Bar- Good flavors and are better then Fast food.
Beef Jerkey- Be cautious most has msg or wheat from soy sauce. Jack Daniels is safe.
Potato Chips- Look for all natural brands like Mrs Vickers and Cape Cod and stick to the basic Flavors most other have MSG.
Fritos- Salty and Good
Cashews- Salty and Good
Taco Bell- Hard Taco is safe for wheat but not MSG.
Fruits
Rice Cakes


Also look for healthy places to eat instead of gas stations and fast food places a half hour out of the car feels better when your in a calm place.

I have not fund anything that is as simple as a sandwich for a meal replacement. A salad is a salad but most dressings contain msg and that really leaves ceaser as a only option. Vinegar is also out, so dry salad if fine every now and then but not always filling.

Turkey Dinner

So how horrible would it be to not have the great sleepy meal. Well I found a way to keep the healthy benefits of butter soaked bread and salt. yes Stuffing!!! It was pretty simple actually i just looked at my Mother-In-Laws Recipe and took out the bread crumbs. and replaced them rice bread cubed. added some of my own seasonings and a packet of Crock Pot Chicken seasonings. And guess what it is stuffing, and it tastes good. for the rest of the meal well that's pretty easy too just avoid flour, I used corn meal in the bag for the turkey instead of flour.

But my secret to a plump moist turkey that is never dry is " Hard Apple Cider" I add a ounce for every pound of turkey. I also use a flavor injector to put the cider right in the breast meat. I stumbled upon this technique about 4 years ago, and it has been great every time. The other part is to use the oven bag, cheating my Mom would say, but it keeps the turkey moist and traps in the apple flavor.
