budget eating on the road

[ImHelvetica]

Does anyone have any experience with eating as healthy and good as possible while on the road? I’m flying out from EC to WC and stay there for 3-6 weeks each time. I’m moving from hotel to hotel and the only equipment I have is

- a little cooling bag (can store 2 breads)
- Fridge at hotel
- micro at hotel
- warm water at hotel

My budget is around 3k a month.

Until now I’ve made bread sandwiches - cheese, ham and lettuce - to have on the road. I see that I lack in protein and try to find cheap, convenient and good ways to get my protein in. Do you have any suggestions?

I eat eggs and what ever meat the hotel serves for breakfast every morning and try to train at Planet fitness (lol because they have the most locations on WC, don’t judge) or at the hotel when possible

Oats, hard boiled eggs, cheese, canned chicken/meats, sardines are all cheap and easy to store/prep.

Buy hard boiled eggs? I’ve thought of canned chicken and maybe make a chicken-cheese sandwich - but always thought it was super expensive... Where do you recommend to buy from? Walmart, target etc

greek yogurt w/ PB, beef jerky, tuna and crackers, PB & J sandwich, chickpeas (you can buy it pre roasted and seasoned)

Some places do sell hard boiled eggs, and you can keep them in the fridge for quite awhile. Canned chicken isn't too expensive, Walmart/Target sell their brands of it for a couple dollars per can and it has quite a lot of protein.

A lot of those would be awesome! Can you give me tips on where to buy beef jerky cheap? I feel it’s crazy expensive..

Also where to buy chickpeas?
