Best breakfast and snacks to eat in your resort room ?

[pooh2001]

We could do a grocery delivery service and/or send a package down to ourselves
Staying at POFQ
DH has a low salt diet

What should we have in the room for breakfast and snacks for the parks ?

I was thinking cereal and granola bars
Anything else we should buy or send to ourselves ?

Maybe bagels/croissants/muffins.
Small jam,peanut butter,honey packs.
Dry oatmeal packs.
Mini cereal boxes.
Snack crackers/ready made Tuna pouch.
Trail Mix
unsalted organic microwave popcorn

Fresh fruit or fruit cups, rice cakes and peanut butter, cereal.
Small soft side cooler, milk, cheese sticks, juice.....of course doughnuts!

I often have melted cheese on a bagel for breakfast. Depending on who is traveling with us, I’ll order milk, orange juice, cereal, eggs, and donuts.

Bagels, Nutella, fruit, cheese cubes, granola bars, yogurt, milk, cereal for breakfast. Peanut butter crackers, trail mix, cheese nips, individual packs of cookies, nuts for park snacks.

I have cereal at home so I have the same thing when I'm traveling, it's easy to pack cereal, some disposable bowls and spoons in my suitcase. Snack wise I do the same and bring the same type of thing I snack on (which isn't often) at home, like beef jerky.

Overnight oats
Hard boiled eggs
Bald pretzels
Baby carrots
Whole fruit

We always pack granola bars, That's It Bars (compressed fruit, its easier to carry then fruit but it is made with nothing but fruit) pop tarts for kids and 100 calorie whole wheat english muffins for me. I take peanut butter for my english muffin and they have jam in the food court by the toasters.

I always MAKE a huge batch of rice crispy treats. But we drive down. They are an on the go option. Less sugar than sweetened cereal ( I checked).

Cereal for DH
Pop Tarts for the kids
Fruit
Milk from the gift shop.
PB&J

I have taken a coffee pot that makes 12 cups when we have multiple coffee drinkers. Saves tons. ( got a basic one at Walmart a few years back for $8.88. ). Keep it in the legion ox for easy packing.

We always bring bananas, bagels and cream cheese. I'm thinking of bringing some Costco muffins next time we go. We drive so we also bring deli meat, cheese, cut veggies, hummus and crackers for snacks when we are back in the room for an afternoon break. It's not entirely about saving money, it's also about saving my stomach from all the eating out and park snacks!

We always shop through Instacart and get Sargentos Balanced Breaks, hard boiled eggs, individual cheeses (like string cheese or cheddar), bananas, bottled water, apples, OJ, Uncrustables, beef & turkey jerky, small container of milk, & yogurt. Last year we got wine & beer (obvi not breakfast foods) and relaxed by the pool area on a few evenings while doing laundry.

Turkey and cheese roll ups. Lot's of protein and easy to pack in a ziploc bag to eat on the bus in the morning.

Since your spouse has sodium issues...and I don't think you have a kitchen (so no real fridge/cooking?)

I would get
- salt-free peanut butter (like this one https://www.walmart.com/ip/Crazy-Ri...MI1ePU4MHk4wIVh5OzCh2U5QvlEAQYAiABEgKmNvD_BwE)
- a jar of nutella
- a bottle of honey (shelf-stable and goes in everything)
- a bag of apples
- a bag of bananas
- a bag of clementines
- a loaf or two of low sodium bread and/or a box of low sodium crackers
- a box of instant low sodium oats
- a bag or two of dried fruits (what you like to snack on in trail mix and/or put in oats) - just make sure they don't add salt to dry them...
- no salt pretzels
- no salt pistachios or almonds (again, what you like in a snack mix or on oats)
- single serve bottled juices and milks - juices should be zero - milks will need checking
- a box of plastic utensils, a set of paper bowls (which can serve as plates or bowls), and a box of ziplocs (to bring to the park)

So, I'd avoid lunch meats (sodium is almost always too high), convenience cheeses (salt levels), single serve packaged convenience foods (again, sodium), microwave meals, etc...

I'd integrate the ingredients above all over the place - but you should have a good healthy base of proteins, fats, and vitamins at a low salt level that should help if you start getting too much salt in parks...

Doesn’t the POFQ food court have toasters and microwaves anyone can use?

That would expand your options, especially since it’s such a small resort, you wouldn’t be walking far with your breakfast items.
