We talk a lot on the blog about how having a kitchen onboard during your travels is one of the biggest perks of RVing. It’s a great way to eat healthy on the road, and not overspend at restaurants. And now more than ever we are trying to spend more time at our safe and distanced campgrounds, not to mention a busy restaurant isn’t what many people associate with enjoying the great outdoors!
But therein lies the question….what do we eat? How do we stock a tiny RV fridge or cooler with enough food to last us our whole trip?
Enter: Tempo by Home Chef!

Storing Food in Your RV
Food storage in an RV can be tricky, here are a few ways to maximize space in your RV kitchen:
- Large Containers — Large, flat containers are perfect for storing foods you use less often. Fill the boxes and then place them under the couch or bed for quick and easy storage that doesn’t claim any cabinet space.
- Hanging Fruit Basket — Storing fruit can be a real challenge. We love the idea of using a hanging fruit basket to hold your produce up off the counter and keep it nice and fresh throughout your trip.
- Wall Storage — There is also the option of making use of wall space. Hanging a wall storage solution such as this one and adding baskets and hooks allows you to keep all kinds of foods (and even utensils) within easy reach.
Meal Prep
If you decide to try and meal prep for your camping trip, you’ll want to get really organized ahead of time. Make sure you have your grocery list for your weekly meals and all your containers set to go before you even head to the store.
Then, when you come home with all those overflowing bags of groceries you never know how you’ll stuff into your RV’s refrigerator, you’ll have your work cut out for you — literally! You can chop up veggies, cook up meat, and package everything neatly for the next few days of stress-free eating.
Whether you choose to meal prep or make meal times even easier with Home Chef, you’ll be glad you took the time to plan out easy and healthy recipes for your family while on the road. Now get cooking!
