A melt grilled cheese makes a bowl of soup or a salad into a meal!
I would also make some things ahead like pasta salad, cut up fruit, sausage biscuits and cookies. I would prep like I do for a party at home. Spend a bit more for things like lots of berries instead of just apples and bananas. Make some dishes that we don't have often like Buffalo chicken dip or spinach artichoke dip. These can be made at home and then warmed in the microwave. So you feel like it is special because you splurge on items you don't have all of the time, but you are spending way less than eating at the resort restaurant.

This goes a little too far. Why do all this crap while on "vacation"? This sounds terrible.
Because everyone's budget and version of vacation is different. The OP made a choice for a location for her family vacation and is now trying to make that work with her budget. No one asked you to go on her vacation.

Another option is those bagged salads and great idea on Mac n cheese cups I will keep that in mind for my kids: I bring apples, bananas, granola bars, etc; for dinner I’d go out but for breakfast and lunch room stuff is fine.

How are you cooking a frozen pizza in a hotel room?
DP here. Some can be microwaved - the individual sized ones.

+1. Ridiculous.
Time to pop your bubble. You are aware that some people in the area make a lot less money than you do, correct?
