Summer is coming to a close and I hope you have all had the BEST summer ever. I have to say ours has been pretty spectacular so far. We leave for Seattle this Friday and I can’t wait!
Today I want to talk about road trips. You guys know I love ’em. Most of our road trips end at one magical destination…Disneyland.
Whether you’re traveling 2 hours or 20, you need food. Whether it’s a simple snack or you need to pack several meals, it’s gotta happen. There is something about watching the miles fly by that brings on the munchies.
I say eat healthy when you can and that’s where these wraps come in. I first made these wraps for the Champs swim meet last month. I just made Chicken Caesar Salad wraps and they were a HUGE hit. So it got me thinking how can I make these even better??
Bacon. Duh. And tomato. And these glorious wraps were born.
There is so much going on when you are packing and planning for a road trip – the last thing you want to worry about is food. I’m all for making things easy, or, at least, EASIER. I turned to PERDUE® Simply Smart Original Grilled Chicken Strips to make my wraps quick and easy and totally delicious.
I trust PERDUE® chicken. I know their chickens are always fed a 100% vegetarian diet, including locally sourced corn and soybeans, and marigolds AND they never use added hormones or steroids. That works for me.
Pair the wraps with some fresh fruit kabobs and snackable veggies. I used some carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes and green beans. If you use fruits like apples and bananas that will brown, just toss them in lemon juice before skewering.
A few quick tips about road trip food.
1. Use takeout containers to pack the food. Toss them at your next rest stop and keep the car clutter-free.
2. I’m a big fan of kabobs. My kids love them, but skewers can be particularly dangerous in a car. Paper straws work for some things but cocktail stirrers are even better. Skewer on some fresh fruit and your kids will be in heaven.
3. Make sure your food is hand-held, portable, and most of all, something your family will actually eat. There is nothing worse than taking the time to pack up food and then listen to your kids complain. #trustmeonthis

Please be aware that chickens are not “vegetarian”. They are protein eaters, and require protein in their diet. In the best case scenario, they eat bugs as they forage and free range.
Veronica says
Wow this will Be great for lunch. Or when my team does a Birthday celebration. This is good recipe to have on hand. I can add grapes, and some other fruit. Do fruit and veggie tray.
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Absolutely! Thanks Veronica!
Elaine Freimuth says
This wrap look so awesome! Are the chicken strips already seasoned? Thanks for sharing!
Meghan says
Hi! These look amazing, and I can’t wait to try them. Two questions, how far in advance do you usually make these, and does the lettuce leaf ever get soggy? I was thinking of making them 1 day in advance of my daughters birthday party. Thanks!
jennifer says
Do you have any tips on how to wrap them? These wraps are great but mine always fall apart and are messy to pack. What have you wrapped around them?
Tobias says
Just wanted to say that I love your photography :-). I tried shooting some wraps I made this week and they didn’t come out anywhere near as nice as yours.
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Oh you are so sweet Tobias! Wraps are a total pain – keep trying 🙂
Ann says
What size wraps do u use?
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
I use the ones that are the same size as a burrito tortilla – hope that helps!
Diane says
These look great. I will try them soon. Can you tell me what size wrap you use, the look small, I wasn’t sure.
Thanks so much.
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
I used a standard size wrap Diane but you can use whatever you have or can find. Just fill ‘er up!
