Meal planning<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n
Meal planning can be fun. Get out your planner<\/a>, and under your detailed outlook for your camping trip, this is where you write down your menu plan. <\/span>

<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
When camping you always need to plan breakfasts, lunches, dinner, and snacks. I also prep ahead of time, such as preparing pancake mixes; this keeps our food interesting, fun, and delicious and keeps me organized. <\/span>

<\/span><\/p>\n
**Plan your food prep day\/baking day to be the day before you take off and it can coincide with your laundry day.** <\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Camping doesn’t have to mean you eat hotdogs everyday and eat pancakes out of a box…with a little prep, you can eat well, easy and deliciously!<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Here are my top prep food tips:<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Breakfast<\/span><\/div>\n
Scrambled eggs and toast<\/span><\/div>\n
Homemade raisin and\/or white bread <\/a>with a pat of butter. I plan a baking day<\/a> each week and always plan to bring some of my bread along. Slice and serve! Delicious!<\/span><\/div>\n
Cinnamon rolls<\/a>. This is always a hit. It’s made just using my bread recipe, I roll out sprinkle with butter and a little cinnamon and sugar and bake off in a pie plate. After they cool, lightly ice, cover with foil and pack. Your family will love you!<\/span><\/div>\n
Pancakes<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
Pumpkin Pancakes.<\/a> Absolutely perfect for fall camping.<\/span><\/div>\n
These pancake recipes are winners and even easier to prep and bring. Just toss all the dry ingredients into a plastic container with its lid and with a sticky note, write all the simple wet ingredients to bring and add on the morning your going to make them.<\/span><\/div>\n
Breakfast eggs in foil bowls<\/a>. I found some amazing recipes for camping over at Taste of Home and think you are going to love them.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
**For my tent camping friends, just make-up the whole pancake mix, wet and all and make within 2 days. Just stir lightly before you pour on your griddle.**<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n
You may think the box is easier…but let me tell you that with only a small amount of prep, the taste is worth every little, extra step!<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Lunches:<\/span><\/div>\n
For our lunches, I plan sandwiches of all kinds and this is when the hotdogs and brats over the fire are fun. Try some of the ideas below for lunch, too.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Snacks:<\/span><\/div>\n
Campfire popcorn<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
Homemade chocolate chip cookies<\/a>. How could you go wrong with packing your homemade cookies. I do this all the time and the kids love them. Later use them in place of the graham crackers for your s’mores.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Dinners:<\/span><\/div>\n
This one is fun and if you are a tent camper, the grill and the fire are your means to your meal.  <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
I found some great recipes for you over at Joy of Camping<\/a>. Check these out these great camping recipes and write down some great foil packet dinners to try. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Another one is, The Art of Manliness<\/a><\/i>, for foil packet know-how dinners and recipes. It’s a total guy site, but love it because he has some wonderful tips for camping around a fire. YUM!<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Desserts:<\/span><\/div>\n
S’mores are amazing but doesn’t have to be your only treat…here are some other ideas:<\/span><\/div>\n
Campfire cones<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
Peanut butter smores<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Check out these other great camping recipes from Taste of Home.<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
