we are flying and using magical express so we are not going to be leave Disney property. We arE on the dining plan, mostly using it for lunch and dinner. We were thinking of packing some breakfast food and late night snacks in our suitcase to bring from home. Any suggestions of what your family brings?
 
Granola bars, cheese crackers, cheese sticks, animal crackers, microwave popcorn.
 
Single servings of peanut butter or nutella, raisin boxes or other dried fruits, pistachios or other nuts, wasabi dried peas, nutrigrain bars, single serve boxes of cereal, tuna snack-packs, beef jerky or slim jims
 

With preschoolers: mini muffins, packs of mini chocolate donuts, applesauce pouches, peanut butter crackers, granola bars, nuts, popcorn. We don't eat very healthy on vacation :)
 
I always travel with a bag of M&M's and it's often what I eat for breakfast ::yes:: but that's probably not what you were thinking! When I'm with my family, I bring cheez-its, granola bars/KIND bars, pretzels, easy mac cups and instant oatmeal cups. If we are on the DDP, I usually pack small quantities because we don't eat much outside of those daily credits.

A lot of people get groceries delivered to their room, another option if you want a bit more stuff. I would recommend granola bars, nuts, cans of tuna, pastries, I'm a twinkie fan so I always have twinkles and ding dongs.
 
Granola bars, raisins, snack mixes with peanuts; shake drinks (Glucernas/Slim Fasts/etc) can be put into check-in luggage. I usually can't eat first thing in the morning but my stomach will handle one of those with a decent amount of protein to get me closer to lunch. Maxwell House makes instant coffee packets if the room has a coffee maker (not really food).
 
We always drive to FL so we have more flexibility in packing.. But here are some things we pack/ buy at Publix when we get there- Cereal, mixed nuts, chips, coffee cake, fruit, breakfast / fig bars, fruit snacks & cheez its
 
Crackers, portable fruit like bananas and apples, single serve PB, cheese slices, uncrustables and pouch applesauces. Also, really discovered for convenience that my DH and I like those new protein packs from Lunchables.
 
We are DVC members so we do get groceries delivered from wegoshop. For breakfasts we get bagels & cream cheese, bananas or other fruit. DH's one indulgence during vacation are mini powdered donuts. Sometimes we also get juice. For snacks we've gotten cheese & Triscuits, granola or protein bars, and sometimes candy. We also get a case of water to bring to the parks.
 
We honestly don't need or ever want more food than what we get on the dining plan and often come back with lots of extra snacks. I don't know how because we are big people with big appetites.

That being said when I do want something for in the room I would use the snack credits and get the larger bag of the trail mix and keep them for everyone to munch on when wanted. They come in different varieties.
 
We don't do dining plan but always have breakfast in our room- instant oatmeal (coffee maker hot water) fruit cups, and breakfast bars. The Dining plan will more than cover your meals though so don't worry about bringing much with you. Quick service always has jam and I think peanut butter available, toasters and microwaves if you really want to go that route.
 
I packed a tupperware container in our suitcase with cereal bars, granola bars, gummies and crackers.
 
granola bars. they travel well, easy to eat, easy on the stomach, fill you up quick. really the best food on the go.
 
Bottle water, chips, candy for the room. Basically just that type of junk food as we eat every meal away from room. Poptarts is a good idea though and Gatorade.
 
For breakfast, muffins or bagels, single serving cold cereal (you will have to buy milk at the store in the lobby), granola bars, fresh fruit. A jar of peanut butter comes in handy and a loaf of bread. If you want jelly you can get it from the food court. You can buy yogurt in the food court as well.If you stay at a moderate you have a fridge.

Late night snacks...all of the above are good for that as well. We usually have some type of chip like chips and salsa or snack crackers or popcorn.
 
we pack bagels, pb, almond butter, some nature valley pb sandwich bars, milk, and usually get a bag of chips and a jar of salsa at the resort store.
