I really need to check out that little lunch thingy. That is exactly what I need. I’m a minivan camper who doesn’t like to cook but can’t live on fast food and junk for very long. Happy to see you sharing time playing cards in nursing home. It means so much to them as well as beneficial to our own mental health.
Cool gadget I was just looking at these warmers. Will need to a big power station but good idea warm something while driving. Have a beautiful weekend 🤗🤗
Interesting lunchbox thing, I like that yours has both AC & DC cords to power. For about 5 years I’ve been using a HotLogic Mini to slowcook or reheat food in a Pyrex pan. 3 years of that was just reheating already cooked meat or sausage, along with frozen veggies until I got brave enough to add in raw vegetables like broccoli or asparagus in with the precooked meats. Then this past 2 I’ve been slow cooking from raw boneless chicken thighs, pork chops & salmon. I love having a hot meal midday while traveling. #RestAreaDining
@karinhart489 I got a thermometer for temps as well. Cooking on a camp stove is not the same as in sticks and brick. Being a ex hospital kitchen helps. Food safe is my thing. Also having a compromised immune system I must be careful. Will definitely help when it comes to expiration with the warmer.🚐🐈⬛🇨🇦😊
You are so down to Earth, and living your life with Beautiful Jake!! I love your cat, isn't Jake the one that makes your Van a home!! Well of course so are you!! Great Video..Enjoy your travels!!
Al I can say Thanks, Thanks and Thanks. so glad you dropped by. Vanlife is so much fun, I really try to make that experience the best. Have a wonderful day.🚐🐈⬛😊🇨🇦❤️
Yum!!! PB & Banana...one of my faves! I have a 12v rice cooker that also heats up leftovers...these gadgets are really useful, especially on travel days 😉 Hope to see you soon 🤗
What a deal $5 the description on Amazon says heats up food. As long as it is precooked food it should be good to warm up. It will not cook food but I have heard of others trying it out for cooking food. I do plan on trying it out to see what it can do. Test the limits. 🚐🐈⬛😊🇨🇦
What is your set up? Do you have insulated walls, have a bulkhead insulated curtain, install fans, roof fan and ones that attach to the walls of your van. I don’t leave Jake alone for long. Errands are done in the early morning. If you work try to work night shift. Or if you can afford a portable eco flow air conditioner that will help cool your van if gets hot in summer.
I fry my hamburger, and then make a shepherds pie and lasagna in my lunchbox cooker. broke mine and ready to re-purchase cause I love it. 4 years with it ❤❤❤
@@beyouvanlife there’s lots of UA-cam videos. Italian spice, 3/or 5 cheeses . I like to keep it less the 2 inch deep . Gets warmer that way , 2 hrs then 6 hrs if it s too thick
Aww your kitty looks just like my Jelly Bean. I’m hoping she’s going to adjust to van life but so far she hates car rides. I’ve got a week til I’m full time so fingers crossed she’ll get used to it.
Jake took a bit to fully say it alright. He complains when he can’t go outside, like it the cities. So probably 90% on board. Hope Jelly Bean adapts quickly. Vanlife is so much fun.
Question. I noticed you came out of a fenced area. Do you own the property you live on in your van? I've wondered if that was legal. Please let me know.
Thanks for the question. I do stay on my daughter’s property in rural area on acreage. You always have look into local bylaws for the answer to your question. I can’t see cities allowing it. Hope that answers your question.
I’m a couple months late, but I have to ask…where is the mayonnaise on your PB and banana sammy???? Seriously should try it that way if you haven’t. My dad made us pb, mayo, banana sandwiches when we were kids. That and sliced bananas & sour cream with a spoonful of sugar. That was the extent of his culinary skills. 😂
@deborah3709 You may not understand or seem interested in this gadget. I have a propane, a butane, and a isobutane stove. Yes I could pull them out and use them as well in 5 minutes. But you can’t leave them unattended, they produce gases into the air. I like to have options for different occasions. Solar is free as well. It saves money to use this device. If you still think it’s useless then, I am ok with that. I personally like this gadget and find it very useful. ❤️❤️❤️
Love your videos or what i can cope with watching them .However no reflection on yourself but seeing lots of stuff just scattered around sends me over the top. im a little bit i need to keep this i need to keep that. However it all has to be out of sight out of mind because i just can't cope with clutter around me .I so wish at times i could be more like you 😕
Cool cats are the best in life. Try it you may love it. I love you no matter what your gig is, so keep being you. Everyone comes with a different gig. 😊🐈⬛🚐🇨🇦
Definitely not for a carb diet. I am on an everything diet so never have to think of those things. A very carb filled sandwich 🥪 🍌 🥜 🧈. Have you ever tried one?
@@beyouvanlife yes but when i'm feeling "screw the keto" i'll skip the bread and if i have a perfectly spotted 🍌 (my fav) slather on peanutbutter or Nutella.
Why do so many vaners campers etc have the need to show themselves putting food in their mouth??? I find it hard to watch . Seeing the food is enough. Not to offend anyone your face is right in the camera.
Are you looking for advice on how to do videos effectively? Not understanding your comment???? The taste is fabulous and exciting. Tasting food is one of the pleasures of life. Getting in the camera and reaching out to folk is exacting my goal. Love flaunting the fact that I can taste the food. Capturing the moment on camera are the tricks of the trade. Exactly why all vanlifers do it! Hope this answers everything for you.
My son just got one for his van. Should be good. Have a great weekend.
So handy to have around.🚐🐈⬛🇨🇦😊Have a wonderful weekend.

Needed to hear what you said today. Great video once again. Enjoy one of my favourite places in bc
Thanks for letting me know.😊Have a wonderful day. 💐
Just subscribed loved your video from UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Good evening to you. Thank you for subscribing Alice. 🚐🐈⬛😊❤️🐝
What was that gadget called? That warmed your chili?
Electric Lunch Box, ERAY Heated... www.amazon.ca/dp/B07R3HSPZJ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
When you made your pb and banana sandwich, I just knew I had to subscribe. Those are my favorite! 😀 And then I saw your cat... 🥰
Thanks for subscribing I so appreciate it and who can say no to Jake he is so sweet. Pb sandwiches are so good 😋
Yes I own that lunch box. Always start with hot food and this will keep it warm. I’ve used it on road trips. Love it.
Great added tip 😊🐈⬛🚐🇨🇦👍🏻
I always put pb on both slices so the bananas don't slip out. Lol
Great idea Karen, I will definitely try that next and test it out. Thanks for the 💡😊. Have a wonderful day🚐🐝🐈⬛😊🇨🇦

Road trips without fast food 🥘. You have a great weekend as well🤗🤗
That will be a great addition to your van. Looks awesome 🤗
Thanks 😊 🤗
So so glad to see you walking normally!
It feels good to walk normally 😊
@beyouvanlife I'm not quite yet. At least I am fairly normally.. though some days hurts more than others
@@BohoBlueVan That’s been going on for some time. Takes so much longer as we age.

@@beyouvanlife oh, I did get one of those pokie needle meat thermometers to be sure the HLM got up to safe temps.

I wondered about those food heaters. I've seen on videos that people cook meatloaf in them. Will you try it and let me know?
I may try that!
Yum!!! PB & Banana...one of my faves! I have a 12v rice cooker that also heats up leftovers...these gadgets are really useful, especially on travel days 😉 Hope to see you soon 🤗
Yes very handy on travel days. Will you been coming to Canada soon?
@@beyouvanlife Yes, planning on being there end of June-early July...maybe longer if I can work from the road!!!
@sarah_n_tank_girl That’s exciting!! Let’s try and connect.
Have you looked at the Itaki electric bento boxes? You can steam rice while cooking in the lower chamber.
That sounds amazing I will have to take a look.
@@beyouvanlife”Emmy made” ua-cam.com/video/wpQHpLW0myg/v-deo.htmlsi=YoPA5WpkbPhJJ1gB. It’s an older video but good.
Love that lunch kit! Great for kids lunches.
Absolutely!
Bless you. Stay healthy and happy. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 😊
I bought a similar thing at Goodwill for $5 I hope it works as good. I think it is mainly for sandwiches.
What a deal $5 the description on Amazon says heats up food. As long as it is precooked food it should be good to warm up. It will not cook food but I have heard of others trying it out for cooking food. I do plan on trying it out to see what it can do. Test the limits. 🚐🐈⬛😊🇨🇦
Mine lasted for about a year. I'm going to try a different brand next time.
Apparently you can purchase one that cooks rice and does boiled eggs as well. They are so handy.😊🚐🐈⬛❤️🇨🇦
I travel with my cat too, but I don't go in the hot weather, I worry about her, how can I deal with keeping her from over heating....???
What is your set up? Do you have insulated walls, have a bulkhead insulated curtain, install fans, roof fan and ones that attach to the walls of your van. I don’t leave Jake alone for long.

They are the best!❤️😊

@@beyouvanlife lazy lasagna just to clarify lol 😂 .
@touristiqueducanada346 ok what do you put in lazy lasagna?

Nice van, take care❤
Thank you so much 😊🚐🐝🐈⬛❤️
Am new here and you've earned it my subscribe ❤
@Be you vanLife - Hey Renee - That's one of my favorite sandwiches!
That sandwich is more popular than I thought.
Aww your kitty looks just like my Jelly Bean. I’m hoping she’s going to adjust to van life but so far she hates car rides. I’ve got a week til I’m full time so fingers crossed she’ll get used to it.

Hey, now after seeing this, I'm going to have a peanut butter and banana sandwich!
They are so good 😋
My favorite sandwich! I had one for breakfast on multigrain bread.
@greencheek5056 I so much healthier than my white bread 🍞 . 😊🚐🐈⬛🇨🇦❤️

@@beyouvanlife never know till you try☺️ 🐝🙂🇺🇸
I know who’s making lunch when we meet 😂😂 gadgets I like gadgets hahah..Kev c
😂😂😂 lunch from me. 🚐🐈⬛🇨🇦😂
That chili looked like it was already cooked? So 45 minutes to heat up? Doesn't seem efficient.
What do you have to cook with in your van?
Love this lunch kit! Great for travelling and great way to send leftovers for school lunches!
@@beyouvanlife propane camp stove. 5 minutes to heat up a can of anything

@@beyouvanlife someone asked what I cooked with. Geez. Relax.
I'm 76 and have eaten peanut butter and banana sandwiches all my life but have always eaten them open face.
I have to give that a try. It just might change my ways. Have an awesome day.🚐🐈⬛😊🇨🇦
