One of the best advantages to a timeshare vacation is the kitchen. This is especially true if you have a family.  <\/p>\n

The kitchens in most timeshare resorts are full-sized and come well equipped. Using the kitchen allows you to save money on eating out for three meals a day. And while cooking on vacation may not be your first choice, the savings and convenience make it worthwhile.<\/p>\n

Seasoned timeshare travelers have lots of tips to offer that make using the timeshare kitchen an easy way to prepare yummy meals for hungry families.<\/p>\n

1. Sara:
 I do the pasta thing with cans of peeled tomato which you can almost add anything to: fish, meat or chicken.  <\/p>\n

And try bean salads. Buy 1 can of as many different beans as you think your kids can stand, wash and drain, pour them into a large bowl, mix with some olive oil and wine vinegar and finely chopped onion (optional) and refrigerate. It’s great at lunch with some sandwiches or as a 2nd with pasta. You’ll find it lasts you for days, great for a quick snack.<\/p>\n

2. Kay:
I buy a roasted chicken at the supermarket, add a veggie, frozen fries and Italian bread. The kids love it and it is easy for me.<\/p>\n

3. Luanne:
Something that’s become a favorite of our kids is “salad bar”. We get meats from the deli, veggies, other salad-type stuff, spread it all out on the table, and let everyone fix their own. That and some special bread makes a great meal, and is so easy.<\/p>\n

4. Rene:
Our tip is for those who are flying to their destination.<\/p>\n

The first day of travel can be a long day with kids. We always pack a first night meal and a first breakfast in our suitcase, so we can just plop into the timeshare pool without having to go out for groceries until next day, when we’re more rested.<\/p>\n

1st Dinner – Large can of spaghetti sauce (not the glass jars that break!), small can diced tomatoes (Italian-style, nice) dried angel hair pasta (cooks in 5 mins.), and a small un-opened green canister of parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n

1st Breakfast – Each kid’s favorite cereal in a small ziplock, Instant Oatmeal, and boxed-drink milk for the cereal. Or you could use canned milk or 1% lowfat dried milk (in an envelope, add water, not bad) — depending on your kids preference.<\/p>\n

We also bring lots of microwave bacon (no refrigeration required) and travels well. And we might buy a package of Danish ahead of time and pack that, too.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t experienced the ease and convenience of a timeshare kitchen, plan this summer\u2019s vacation with a timeshare rental<\/a> and check it out for yourself!<\/p>\n
