Avoiding processed foods on the road isn't easy, but choose these dietitian's picks instead

The short piece focuses on camp-style meals for people who avoid multiple common ingredients. It begins with a “campfire dinner” featuring steak, fire-baked potato, broccoli, garlic-butter cauliflower, and a can of ginger beer, noting the reader has allergies to peanuts, shellfish, gluten, dairy, beans, eggplant, and sweet potato. The article highlights that brassica vegetables like cauliflower and broccoli provide fiber and plant compounds, while steak supplies readily absorbed iron. It also says the fruits add vitamin C and antioxidants, but warns that continuing this pattern could leave someone short on calcium and total fiber. It then suggests adding tree nuts, seeds, tahini, extra vegetables, and gluten-free whole grains like brown rice or quinoa, and using tinned salmon or sardines with edible bones for calcium.
