If you find yourself staying in hotels or Airbnbs for an extended period of time \u2013 whether that is because you are a frequent traveller or you have been displaced from your home \u2013 you may find yourself leaving behind the comforts of your home kitchen. But with a bit of planning, you can still whip up delicious meals even when you\u2019re on the go. Whether you\u2019re staying in a hotel with a small kitchenette or an Airbnb with a fully equipped kitchen, here are some tips and tricks to help you make the most of your temporary cooking space.<\/p>\n
Before you start planning meals, get familiar with the kitchen facilities available. In hotels, kitchenettes are usually compact with basic appliances such as a microwave, a mini-fridge, and perhaps a coffee maker. Some hotels might offer more comprehensive setups, but it\u2019s always good to check in advance. Airbnb kitchens vary greatly but often include a full range of appliances, utensils, and cookware. Review the property description and look at photos to understand what\u2019s available.<\/p>\n
Given the constraints of a temporary kitchen, simplicity is key. Plan meals that require minimal equipment and ingredients. Opt for dishes that can be made in one pot or pan, like stir-fries, pasta dishes, or sheet pan meals. For breakfasts, consider simple options like cereal, oatmeal, PB&J, yogurt with fruit, or scrambled eggs, which are easy to prepare with basic tools. Buying some non-perishable snacks or long-lasting fruit like oranges, apples, and bananas are great options for quick and easy snacks to take with you on the go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
