Our simple halal traveling menu

When we were traveling in far away countries, we had a special menu. 
This is related to our lifestyle diet: halal and low in fat. 
By cooking our own food, we guarantee it is halal, cheaper, and healthy.

Our typical daily breakfast/lunch/dinner consists of fresh vegies like slices of cucumber or cherry tomatoes, fresh cooked rice and canned fish. 
Tired of fish, we ate  smoked oysters, boiled eggs served with chili sambal 
or Indomie Goreng! 
To get this instant noodle, just go to Asian groceries in Chinatown in the world, but not in China. Bought some when we were in Queenstown, Sydney and Toronto!


Rice is not difficult to find. It is an international staple food now. 
A bowl of salad from McD can substitute the vegies. 
Canned fish or seafood are considerably cheap in any stores. 
Seasonal fresh fruits like cherries, strawberries, blueberries, plums, or apples, are really nice treat. For side dishes, I prefer black olive pizza, french friends or traditional bread without emulsifier.

It is important to remember that to get halal food while in foreign countries is a huge priority.
