Dinner on the go

Having recently entered the world of kids sports teams, I am still figuring out how to make it all work. The Lord  generously blessed me with back to back practices at the same location for my 2 bigger boys. So we only have one practice night a week. But add in two early evening games, and my weekly dinner plans come crashing down. I know that Red feeds her kids dinner early, but my son takes a medicine that affects his appetite, so we are really tied to specific meal times. We avoid fast food for health and budget reasons. Which leaves me to provide dinner on the go several times a week.

So far I have made homemade burgers, hotdogs, burritos with beans and cheese, and quesadillas and wrapped them in foil to take with us. This rotation is going to get pretty old quickly! I could pack pastas and other thing that need to be eaten with a fork, but that is a lot more time consuming and I would need to bring containers, forks, etc. It is not exactly a leisurely picnic, since I am also making sure the tired toddler doesn’t run onto the field.

Any other thought for meals to be eaten outside during Little League games? The Texas bonus is that it is still a million degrees in Texas so everything stays warm 🙂
