Came Shabbos day and a little cholent surprise. For some reason, the cholent we ordered (and depended on) wasn’t warm enough overnight, and it was spoiled by Shabbos morning. We had to make do with the rest of our pupu platter of options. Obviously, we lived to tell the tale, but thinking of this week’s feature on food that packs well for a vacation made the memory of my foul-smelling cholent surface.
For this week, we weren’t looking for indulgent or exotic recipes. Food on this kind of vacation is there to fuel you and keep you going till the next meal. We all know that having appropriate and sufficient foods can make or break an outing. When you pack right, you don’t need to travel with a U-Haul carrying your packed refrigerator and a suitcase of equipment.
Rivky Kleiman created recipes that hit all the right notes for your vacation: easy, filling, crowd-pleasing, and delicious enough that you’ll make them again and again as soon as you get back home.
