What to Pack in Your Beach Cooler This Weekend

Before we get to the grub list, can we just talk about how freaking cute this beach cooler is?! Gone are the days of bringing only non-perishables for a day in the sand.

Ok, back on topic.

First things first: beach food rules. 1) You can’t bring anything too juicy unless you want sticky sugar arms. 2) You can’t bring anything too crumbly unless you want beach bugs and seagulls swarming your spot. 3) You need stuff that’s actually going to satisfy you vs. making you hungrier.

Here’s a list of ideas that tick all three boxes:

Snacks

  1. Rxbars

  2. Larabars

  3. That’s It bars (pair them with some nuts for balance)

  4. Siete chips + guac

  5. Simple Mills crackers + cheese

  6. Jackson’s Honest sweet potato chips

  7. Brownies

  8. Cookies

  9. Apples, bananas, pears

  10. Boomchickapop

Lunch-y Stuff

  1. Chicken or egg salad + Base Culture bread (grain-free) or Ezekiel bread

  2. Boiled eggs

  3. Turkey + cheese roll ups

  4. Salami + cheese

Cleansing?

  1. Boiled eggs

  2. Sliced veggies + guac

  3. Turkey + avocado mayo rolls

  4. A bag of almonds or macadamias (Trader Joe’s has a good nut selection)

  5. Grilled chicken strips + guac

And of course we didn’t forget clean up and hydration essentials.

  1. A ziplock bag with baby wipes and/or paper towels

  2. A jug of tap water for hand rinsing

  3. Another jug of water for drinking (freeze it the night before if you like cold water)

  4. A garbage bag

What’s in your cooler??
