No kitchen on a short trip — what's one thing you make in a hotel room with just a kettle or microwave?
When you're on a 1–3 night trip and the room has only an electric kettle or a microwave, it feels limiting. Some people microwave eggs, make instant oats with milk, or pick up curd and rotis from a nearby shop. What's one simple in-room meal or packable ingredient you rely on to stay reasonably full and get some protein?

Packable, high-protein items that need only a kettle or microwave: roasted chana/soy nuts or mixed nuts; peanut‑butter sachets with bread/roti; instant oats + milk powder (hot water) + a spoonful of peanut butter; protein powder or dry milk mixed with hot water; canned/tinned beans or chana warmed in the microwave; boiled eggs (you can boil eggs in a kettle ~8–10 min) or microwave eggs in a mug. Quick prep tips: combine protein + fiber + fat for satiety (eg oats + nut butter + nuts); use single‑serve sachets to avoid refrigeration. Food safety: consume dairy/eggs the same day or keep in the hotel fridge; avoid leaving perishable foods >2 hours at room temperature.
