    I'm trying NOT to use my oven and stove. I have a toaster oven to replace my oven and microwave. To replace stovetop I use my rice cooker and instant pot. I'm going to buy a cheap kettle to boil water for coffee etc. Also an electric skillet for bacon. Don't use my Toaster oven for bacon. Too messy.

    I really want to try this for our regular hotel trips. By the evening spending a day out we are usually too tired and force ourselves and 3 children out to find a restaurant! After a day or 2 this becomes way too expensive! Ive always been too scared to cook in a room in fear of the smoke alarm going off! How does all this steam and cooking not trigger the smoke detectors at hotels??

    Look for a smaller hotpot, microwave safe Tupperware and a camping missile spice container. Holds many spices, smaller design than taking all spice containers. I use a back pack picnic set. Has all the utensils and stuff, helps hold and keep organized the portable kitchen. Lol I use powdered potatoes, for mashed potatoes and a jar of gravy. For water get travel berkey filter bottles. Excellent idea on the George foreman! I am going to pick one up! I've been thinking of getting a Tupperware vintage picnic set for longer trips. But great video! Thanks!

    I loved this video! My husband and I had to move out of our apartment because of a pipe burst! I would have never thought to use a George foreman while we are stuck living in a hotel 🙂

    I keep a sterilite tote (3-4" deep) under the back seat of my truck with Corelle ware, 2 coffee mugs and a plastic pencil box of flatware/ paring knife/ can opener that is a constant in our hotel stays. We also have a scrapbook rolling totet with our Hamilton Beach (k-cup knock-off), coffee/teas and dry foods such as quick oatmeal, dried fruits, canned foods that go with us when we stay at a hotel. $Tree is my grocery shopping stop on our way. Creative Blessings!

    Loved this video!!! I am already a subscriber of you and Maureen. My husband and I travel quite a bit. I am a major foodie and am always cooking. We are not fans of restaurants. Overpriced and you never know what the kitchen looks like. 😳 Anyway…….I recently discovered that you and I have 2 things in common. First, I have those same salt & pepper shakers. I love vintage!! Also, Maureen and my oldest daughter were born on the same day (8/12/92)! Guess that means we were in labor together. LOL! I started a channel last December to connect with other women my age (46) 😱. Our age group has a lot to offer the younger generation don't you think? Take care!!!

    Let's face it – you are in no position to go on vacation. You and yours are broke! Forget the trip, pay off your bills, go to school and get better jobs. It is no vacation if you are doing all that cooking in your room! Oh, yeah – don't ruin the room for the next family with your cheap cooking!!!
