While on a business trip, you may find it challenging to eat well with a busy schedule. Fortunately, you can work around this problem by preparing your meals in your hotel room. This errand is especially convenient if you find a room with a microwave and refrigerator. Review the following guide for some preparation tips.

3 Tips for Enjoying Meals During a Hotel Stay

1. Stock Up on Supplies

If you prefer cooking your own meal, pick up groceries on the way to the hotel. List the ingredients of planned meals and only buy what you can finish. You can then store these in the fridge to keep them fresh. You can opt for bread for a quick breakfast with butter or jam on the side. Consider buying milk, cereal, eggs, canned goods, and frozen meals that you can reheat in your hotel room’s microwave. 

2. Learn Some Easy Recipes

A quick search online yields countless recipes you can create with a microwave. For example, you can make baked potatoes within 10 minutes, topped with vegetables or sour cream. Another quick meal you can whip up is macaroni and cheese. Combine pasta, water, salt, and butter in a mug, then place the ingredients in a microwave for around three minutes. Remember to avoid using aluminum foil while heating, as this could cause a fire. 

3. Avoid Smelly Foods

When prepping meals in your hotel room, refrain from using ingredients with strong odors like garlic and seafood. These can leave smells that take a while to dissipate and may cling to your clothes. Instead, try to create simple rice and pasta dishes with salt and pepper so that you can meet up with clients and colleagues smelling fresh.
