Looking for the perfect art fair lunch? Cut an avocado in half, sprinkle it with Spike and scoop it out. Tastes heavenly, doesn't stick to your teeth in funny places, your hands stay clean and you can easily put it down to sell something. Because you know that customers always come when you try to eat something! This is thanks to Nancy Krahn, tons of years ago!

 

So what's yours?

  • I'm a diabetic (Type 1) and am always looking for low carb options at these shows. I usually can find grilled chicken skewers. I always bring packages of almonds with me and pre-washed and packaged veggies. Publix sells a mix of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots for 2.50 a pack. That along with the chicken skewers gets me through till dinner without a shot of insulin (and I don't need a fork either!). That makes a perfect lunch!
  • I like the cracker/tuna salad combo that comes in a little box.  Usually costs about $1.00-$2.00.  Easy to eat while at a show as it comes with a little spoon and you just scoop the tuna salad onto the crackers.  If you are bigger eater, you may want to have a couple on hand.  (they also have chicken salad)
  • My perfect food is chicken salad. I need a high protein lunch on art fair days. I don't use mayonnaise, so there is no spoilage issue (plus, I don't like mayonnaise). I use half sour cream and half plain yogurt. It will keep for 3 days in the cooler, as long as I change the ice at night and in the morning. I use the roasted chickens you find at  the grocery store; they have better flavor than cooking a chicken breast. I add cut up grapes if I have them, or cranberries, chopped celery, and spices.

     

    When I don't have time to make this, cottage cheese with fruit is my standard lunch. Again, it's high protein. It will keep me satisfied until I have time after the show to get more calories.
