Please help, need suggestions, thanks

My boyfriend is a truck driver and he has no access to a stove, microwave or refrigerator. 

can you suggestion any recipes that i can make for him at home that he can take to work with him?

he's on the road at least 10 hours a day. 

he doesn't want to buy fast food because it's unhealthy and we can not afford it anymore. 

also, he doesn't want to buy a cooler that plugs into a cigerette lighter because it will drain the battery in the truck. 

are there any suggestions you can give for storing food while he's driving?

thanks in advance.

You can always make things that he can wrap in foil and heat on the dashboard (my ex used to do that) or use an icepack in a cooler to keep cold things cold.

Meatloaf sandwiches are great cold fried chicken is also good. Maybe try to think of picnic items.

Crazy... Maybe... But what about looking into a baby bottle warmer. I know they have car ones... Use it as needed. Stews, ravioli, ect.

Ice packs in  a cooler without and you could go with any type of food he can eat chilled like chicken salad, veggies, fruit, etc.

You can also foil up foods after making sure they are real hot before wrapped and inserting them in the foil bags to keep them warm.

Sandwiches-packets of condiments, sealed and opened when he eats.

Cooler with icepacks- some of them last 12 hours or more: yogurt, fruits, veggies, cheese cubes, dips-

I'd get a cooler with ice packs and get the lunch meat, cheeses, yogurts would last. ummmm I'm trying to think of some healthier ideas. I'd make deli wraps and then wrap them in foil to keep them warm/cold.

For whatever reason I am having a hard time thinking up ideas.

Great ideas.

 When my kids were in school, and when I used to work out of town I bought some soup thermoses. They are wide mouthed.  In the morning I would heat up left over casseroles,or stew or soup, etc., and put it in the thermos.  I also had a lunch box that was insulated with a divider.  I would put ice packs in one side for cold food.  I could take hot food, salads, fruit, whatever.
