Traveling is a fun experience, but eating out while on vacation can get very expensive. Also, you usually have so many things to do and see while on vacation that you want to eat as quickly as possible. If you're interested in saving time and money while on vacation, then you'll need to know how to make dinner in a hotel room.
Decide how many days you'll need to make dinner in your hotel room.
Use whatever appliances are available. Most hotel rooms are equipped with a microwave. If you don't have a microwave in your room, you'll usually have access to a microwave in the lounge area.
Buy enough food to make dinner in your hotel room for the number of days you plan on eating in. Potatoes are a great dinner item and can be made within less than 10 minutes.
Eat raw. Health gurus everywhere enjoy eating raw foods. While you're on vacation, eating raw can simplify the process of making dinner in your hotel room. Bagged salad and veggies are a great main dish if you include enough variety. Aim for a rainbow of colors: spinach, carrots, and tomatoes.
Reserve a room that includes a kitchenette if your budget allows. If you have access to a stove and oven, your possibilities are endless, and it'll be just like home.
Buy only what you'll need for the length of your hotel stay. You'll waste more money than if you had eaten out if you buy too many groceries and end up throwing them away.
Stay at a hotel located close to a supermarket and make daily trips to buy just what you need to prepare for dinner each evening.
