We all have those days when dinner sneaks up on us. Sometimes you start the day with the best of intentions, but you end up running a sick kiddo to the doctor or an errand that shouldn't take much time takes forever and you find yourself standing in your kitchen at dinnertime wondering how to get dinner on the table while your kids scream and whine. Or maybe you're driving your starving kids to practice or a game and feeling like a terrible mom because your kids are hungry and you didn't have a game plan. I know I'm not the only one who has found themselves feeling this way. When you have the right items on hand to prep, store and clean up meals, you can take your dinner game to a whole new level.

A few weeks ago, I shared Meal Prep Tips for Busy Moms. And while I shared a lot of tips Meal Prep Tips, I didn't share many ideas for when you're on the go. {And if you have kids in sports, there's a good chance, there are lots of nights when dinner at home just isn't possible.} Here are some meal ideas for when you're on the go!
Keep quick and easy to use products on hand…like Simply Beyond Spray on Herbs and Organic Fruit Vinegar. It's not secret that I'm a huge fan of products that make life easier! If you've never tried Simply Beyond products, you need to check them out. The spray-on herbs include only 2 ingredients. They start with pure, concentrated herb essential oil and mix it with non-GMO organic Canola oil. There are no chemicals or preservatives…just delicious herb flavors that are shelf stable! I love the Garlic Spray on pizza, chicken breasts, and I even add some to my pasta sauce for a little extra garlic kick. You can even add it to french fries or popcorn for a more gourmet flavor. Simply Beyond makes it easy to add organic herbs to whatever you're making!
The Simply Beyond Organic Fruit Vinegar is the perfect balance of sugar and acidity. Add it to pork chops to enhance their natural sweetness or use it as a salad dressing. They spray gives you the ability to add the perfect amount to whatever you're eating. And if you want to get really bold, spritz some fruit vinegar on a bowl of vanilla ice cream and strawberries. It's like a flavor explosion in your mouth!

Another easy way to up your dinner game is with easy meals-to-go! Make up burritos ahead of time and just grab and go on nights where you'll be at the ball field. If you have salad greens prepped and ready to go, you can grab them along with a rotisserie chicken for a delicious dinner at the park. Don't forget to grab a bottle of Simply Beyond Fruit Vinegar to use as dressing.
Looking for new ideas for busy nights at the park? Take advantage of the grills that most parks have available these days. You can make a pizza on a grill or even these BBQ Chicken Nachos. When your ingredients are pre-prepped, you can just grab them and whip up dinner while you're at the park. You can even make s'mores on the grill!
If you opt for dinner on the go, make sure you have Wet Ones Antibacterial Handwipes with you. They're a convenient 2-in-1 way to wipe out dirt and messes and kill 99.9% of germs without water. And when we're at the park…and my kids are playing like maniacs, they're covered in dirt and germs! I love that Wet Ones are tough on germs but easy on skin. We even use Wet Ones in our own backyard when we treat the kids to s'mores by the pool! Grab some Wet Ones for your family here!
