I'm in the process of moving, so I'm in a hotel for another week before I make the 4 day ferry ride to my new house. I have a super mini-fridge and a microwave. I'm on an island in Southeast Alaska so restaurants are super expensive up here, my family and I have spent about a grand on dining out in the past week and a half!!Help me come up with some paleo-friendly hotel cooking...I'm stumped and I can't just live off Larabars and smoked salmon.

I realize availability of products isn't going to be as abundant as in the lower 48, and I understand that eggs are very expensive in Alaska, too. I'm just going to make a list off the top of my head and hopefully, there will be something helpful in it.
I'll edit this as the evening goes by and I (hopefully) think of more things that are palatable microwaved. |

We've been renovating our kitchen and I've been without sink and oven and cooktop for a few weeks. I've been using my Crockpot. Even if you don't already have one, it'll pay for itself in a couple of days. |

Sounds rough. Geesh, and only a microwave...I might want to splurge on a hot plate and just sneak the sucker in. You would have so many more options. Rock_Paper has the right idea. |

I was stuck in a motel for over a month on a remodel situation with only small frig. and microwave. Yes, there were many poached eggs and bacon in the microwave. Since you don't do dairy or canned you are more limited. ...fresh fish sounds great to me since we have ZERO available! but I am not sure how to fix in microwave. Beef jerky? |

My recommendation would be to go to Trader Joes, Safeway, ( not sure what's available to you) and pick up: Precooked chicken breasts Hardboiled eggs ( these are available at Safeway or similar) Nitrate free hot dogs Bacon Tomatoes Onions Fruit Peperoncinis Spinach It might not be exciting but you are set with hot dog dinners (sans buns), and eggs & bacon breakfasts, and chicken spinach and pepper lunches with fruit for snacks. Good luck! |

You can prepare various stews in the microwave: First heat fat an onions, add finely chopped meats (chicken or turkey) or meatballs, cook a few minutes, add finely chopped vegetables (cellery, carrots, tomatoes, peppers...) and boiling water, salt and spices/herbs, cook untill it boils on full heat, than for about 20 - 30 minutes on medium/low power until done. |
