Favorite Food when Camping?

During the summer months we keep the fare pretty light with fresh salads, sandwiches, raw vegetables and my kid's favorite, watermelon. For breakfast we would have pancakes, bacon, eggs, fruit, etc. During the winter months we enjoy taking foods that I have canned like vegetable soup and chili. My children really enjoy drinking cocoa around the fire. We also roast hotdogs and marshmallows. I have actually never popped popcorn over the fire with them. I will have to do that! We do use a campstove to cook on most of the time. My husband really enjoys his pot of perked coffee in the mornings. My family just enjoys eating outdoors! It does seem like everything tastes better.

I've got to have my smores when we go camping..lol The first time I made breakfast over the fire I couldnt believe the taste of it. It tasted so much better then being cooked on the stove.. I used a cast iron skillet and made eggs, bacon and fried potatoes.. yummy..

we like to take some fresh apples chopp on up and then add a pat of butter and some cinnamon. Wrap this all in tin foil and and lay it in the hot coals of the fire. let it cook for about 5-10 minutes. depends on how hot your coals are. this is one of my girls favorites to eat while we camp.

Boy this is hard. There are so many great things to make while camping. I think the best one is pudgie pies. We make all sorts.... Pizza, han and cheese, eggs, and we use crescent rolls, flour tortilla shells, bread. The options are just about endless.

Hot dogs onn a stick, roasted in the fire until burnt. Also, roasted marshmellows. I really hate marshmellows, but there is just something about a marshmellow stuck on a stick and roasted in the campfire, mmmmmm so yummy!

I think that I enjoy camping because the food tastes better. The hot dogs and hambugers taste so much better when you grill them. Maybe its cooking outdoors and away from home that makes them taste better.This is something that everyone should experience at least once in their life.

My spouse says "Campin' toast" is a close first to twizzlers. I roast way too much bread for the enjoyment of my camping party.

We always take empty 3 pound coffee cans and cook a meal in the fire. When done, the cans can be thrown away and when I don't have to wash dishes, it's great! Make sure the cans are clean, then layer ground beef,sliced potatoes, carrots, onions and seasonings of your choice. We like to use salt,pepper, garlic powder and parsley. Cover the top with foil and set the can right in the hot coals at the edge of the fire. It takes about an hour and I turn the can halfway around after 30 minutes.

Beef stew on cold camping trips. But smores always!

Its ALL good over the fire but I would haev to say toasties, you get a sandwhich maker, fill it with 2 pieces of toast, your choice of filling, i like pepperoni, green pepper, slice cheese and onion, thrown the toaster iron in the fire, and wait 2 min, VIVALABOOM, you got yourself the best food in the world!
