Camp Meals

For peace of mind, I've found I prefer bringing less spoilables and a medium-size cooler. I bring frozen burgers and hot dogs for the first night, plus a quart of frozen milk. There's always a little store in town and since you'll need to purchase ice anyway, can purchase dinner then. I pre-measure pancake mix, the type that just requires water, and pack cereal for easy breakfasts. Granola bars are another good staple and make great snacks, too. I package frozen veggies in individual tin foil "packs," as these can also be cooked on the fire. Add some steak or chicken strips, bring soft tortillas, and you have wraps! A good knife is essential. Don't forget the bread, and PB & J! We also like to bring a small melon, and of course, fixings for s'mores!
