Don't make this part of your camping experience stressful. This is easy, don't overthink.
I would suggest simple meals, not stuff that requires a ton of ingredients.
Here are some great suggestions.....
Breakfast:
Packaged Donuts - quick and easy to grab in the morning and not wake everyone up
Bacon and Eggs - cook them outside, easy cleanup
Cereal - one of the easiest breakfast solutions of all times (especially with kids)
Lunch/Dinner:
Sandwiches - keep it simple people we are camping....pack bologna and cheese, we don't need to go to the extreme of lettuce and tomatoes
Hot Dogs/Hamburgers - Easy on the grill and a quick easy cleanup, recommend the pre-patty burgers
Spaghetti - So simple....can of sauce and some noodles
A great side item is instant mash potatoes - boil water and mix......too easy
Snacks:
Smores - an absolute must....what's camping without them?
Pringles - easy to keep fresh, and can be used as a side with lunch or as a snack
Jiffy Pop - fun on the fire
Individual snack cans - again easy to keep fresh, and covered from creatures
Again try to pick simple meals, don't try to prepare a 3 course meals for dinner when you are camping...if you are doing that, you barely can pack one day's worth of food in that tiny little fridge.
My family and I are going on a 4 day camping trip and I am in charge of the food! This is so helpful! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMy family loves to camp but they always use camp grounds with a grill or something. The next time we go im going to request that we dont get one of these because I wanna try to cook over an open fire.
