I have to admit that one of the main draws of camping for me is the food. Simple food, cooked over a flame, and eaten outdoors sitting around a campfire.
One of my camp favorites is shish kabobs. I usually cut and marinate the meat at home and then just put it on sticks before cooking at camp. But since we were extended camping and meat from home wouldn't exactly last for long in a cooler, we actually bought these shish kabobs that were already marinated and on sticks in a grocery store deli.
As a side, we stuck some potatoes in the fire. To help them cook faster, I cut them into cubes, added butter, seasoning, wrapped twice in foil, then buried them in the embers of the fire. They came out soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, and so tasty dipped in BBQ sauce.
Okay, now I'm hungry. And want to go camping.

Hi, lovely pics, I can imagine how you feel. My favourite when camping is to make my own bread with fresh jam on a camp fire, it makes me really happy.

ReplyDeleteI love going camping with friends to get ideas for what camp meals to prepare for next time! You have to get a little creative since you can't bring too many things.
DeleteYes! Camp food is the best! You have to work s little bit harder for it and that makes it evenly yummier.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Washing dishes is the worst part about cooking while camping, but it's worth it.
