Beach Bum Snack Kit Gluten Free Style

The Thinglets and I along with my best friend and her girls spent a good part of the week here…

doing this…

visiting with friends…

and this…

The water is still quite cool at around 60 degrees but oh so refreshing!

Even the Bubba had his own water slide…

One of the hardest things about eating gluten free has been finding quick and easy snack foods.  You know, on the go food, ready made, throw in your picnic bag kinds of foods… 

Popcorn is a winner with all the kids.

Sometimes I throw in fruit snacks, nuts (be careful with trail mix it is often manufactured where they process wheat), larabars etc.  Here is what I had in my survival kit this week…

Popcorn and rice cakes, with sunflower butter and/or tuna (the bag kind would have been better but the can was free this time), apples, cheese sticks (eat them 1st, they melt) lots of water and honest kids organic fruit juice (found recently at Wal Mart-my necessary evil).  Don’t forget the sunscreen and you will be set for a day on the lake, or at the park!

Enjoy
