Vacation Safely and Inexpensively
Vacationing safely and inexpensively when you or your family has food allergies is easier than you may think.

Another even easier, good for the budget food-allergy recipe is simply add 1/4 cup of food allergy-friendly BBQ sauce to a crockpot/slow cooker and top with either boneless chicken or pork. Therefore, even less prep! And SO delicious you will make this BBQ often.
Cook at home, or in a vacation rental
From busy Back-to-School days to Fall football games, at home, or vacationing at the beach, these yummy slow-cooker Carnitas tacos are super good! On our last vacations, both of the home rentals came with a slow cooker. So, these are fantastic for days sitting on the beach and coming back home smelling the most delicious dinner ready to eat. Therefore, saving us the Must Eat Out Now as we are all starving!
We usually rent from VRBO or Airbnb. And if preparing some meals is helpful because of life threatening food allergies or simply to save money, these Carnitas tacos are the perfect appetizer or meal. As well as any leftovers can be made into Tortilla Soup or top nachos. Definitely, cook once, eat twice.
As a food allergy family, we appreciate having safe, budget-friendly meals. Also, having dinner ready means more time for fun card and board games!
