Yes ...I always cook at least three or four meals (we usually do eat out at least four times). We always do breakfast in room (whether we have a full kitchen or just a studio) Very easy to make microwave egg sandwiches, etc. I usually make spaghetti sauce/meatballs at home and freeze (enough meatballs for two meals.....meatball sandwiches) and also I will precook, debone, and freeze enough chicken for something like chicken salad, chicken cacciatore or some recipe that uses precooked chicken, and I also precook some fresh ground meat and then freeze for use in tacos, sloppy joes, etc. Since we always fly I put together a box of staples to put my planned meals together (boxes of pasta, rice, taco shells, spices needed...premeasured into a Ziploc snack bag, maybe some cereal .....taken out of boxes and put into Ziplocs, coffee, sugar, etc.) and UPS it to myself at whichever resort c/o of front desk......I put name, checkin date and ressie # on box ......UPS website will give you specifics as to how long you need to allow for delivery. Then, the frozen items go in my carryon (which is a larger Thermos insulated bag) and even with a 2 hour drive to PHL and then a 2 hr 15 min flight and the drive from MCO/WDW everything is still frozen when we get there. However, with new carryon regs .......I don't know if I'll be able to take those things anymore......nothing is liquid or gel, but, frozen solids. We do make a grocery run our first day for things like milk, juice, fresh rolls, etc.
By the way, we're also at SSR in mid October......our dates are 10/14 thru 10/20......will you be there during that time? You'll love SSR........it's a beautiful resort......at first I wasn't sure, but, this will be our third stay there over the past two years and then it's back to our 1st home....VWL.....in January.
