[Izeut]

We whant stay in the hotel with 3 childrens. Do you have a idea for meal. I can't pay 2 restaurants per day. Thanks

Which resort are you staying at? All resorts except some of the Epcot ones will have a food court.

We usually do breakfast in the room. It's the easiest one I think. We usually have cereal, milk, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, and fruit. Lunch you could get lunch meat, cheese, and bread or do tuna fish or egg salad sandwiches. You could also order enough pizza to have leftovers. PB&J sandwiches are easy for breakfast or lunch. You could also do like a Lunchable for lunch with crackers, peanut butter, and cut up lunch meat or pepperoni. Hummus and veggies are easy too. Heck, you could let your kids have cereal for lunch. If it's healthy enough for breakfast, it's probably fine for lunch. I know DS likes to have breakfast at lunch sometimes. It feels like a treat to him. You might be able to make grilled cheese sandwiches with the iron in the room That last one was a joke. Please don't do that

You can order pizza to be delivered to your room for dinner one night. There is also a McDonalds on Disney property for a less expensive meal.

And for lunch in the room, most resort shops have a selection of regular grocery items, especially the resorts that have Villas on the property.

Or one could have groceries delivered too, that's not an uncommon tip to see here on the boards for families.

This is what I would do.

Breakfast is the easiest I think. As others pointed out, cereal, milk yogurt and bread can be purchased, and you could pack PB&J and cereal bars.

I also would also look at the CS menus. Many of them are easily split between two people so you can stretch your dining dollar and still sit down and have a hot meal.

If you share your resort, the ages of your kids, and maybe your food budget, we can help you plan ahead so you are not blindsided when you arrive.

I pack a couple of bags of bagels, and packets if instant oatmeal. You can get jam or cream cheese form resort shop, and any other fresh items. We find it easy to have breakfast in room while getting ready. While value resorts don't have coffee machines (for hot water) you can get it at the food court.

We VERY OFTEN go with intention of buying one meal per day.

Breakfast in the room while everyone is getting ready: bagels, cream cheese, muffins, bananas, yogurt, breakfast bars, box juice.

Lunch we pack and take into the parks: Sandwiches on firm rolls placed in tupperware containers (or recycled plastic ware) and a tube of Pringles (don't get crushed). We put it all in a backpack and carry in. Bottled water can be placed in with it cold from fridge (and if you have freezer, freeze one). The containers are great plates, lids for pringles and lots of places to sit and eat, relax and regroup.

Dinner: we dine at park, Disney Springs, offsite .... wherever we plan to be.

We've packed lunch meat and bread.

Fruit, veggies and dip, cereal, yogurt; are all good ideas.
