Camping Recipes

I'm going camping this weekend so would like to see the responses from people too

I go camping a lot, and I like to bring stuff like:

Sandwich thins bread, lunchmeat, lettuce, tomato (good replacement when everyone else is eating hot dogs)
Low carb tortillas, cream cheese, cucumber, cooked chicken breast or lunchmeat
Low carb tortillas, scrambled eggs & salsa for breakfast burritos (assuming you will be able to cook eggs)
Overnight or refrigerator oatmeal
Breakfast cereal (healthy one that fits into your calorie goal) *also good for snacking
Veggies that come in small pieces or cut into small pieces for snacking (carrots, cucumber, jicama, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, orange & red bell peppers, etc)
Lower calorie canned soup, or you could make some homemade soup ahead of time
Pickles
Tuna fish
Jerky
Nuts
Your favorite protein or nutrition bars (if you get a good chocolatey one, it might even replace smores for you)

Hope that helps!

Hi. I went camping a few weeks back and I was at the same place you are now. I didn't know what to eat. One thing that I found that is tasty and still reminds me of the deliciously bad for you bbq food is Alfesco Sweet Italian chicken sausage. Sausage is not the greatest thing for you but these are packed with protein and low in calories and taste pretty good. Good luck with your camping trip!

Hi. We camp often, and you can basically take any meal you want to as long as you prep for it. The foil dinners are great over a fire because you can add all kinds of veggies and whatever meat you wish ~ and everyone can make their own that way. The pre-cooked Grillers meats from Tyson make for a quick ,handy and fresh idea for fajitas= a one pot meal with your prepped peppers and onions already to go. Just heat through, and fill your shells with whatever you want. (The lowfat sour cream is good with these, however I cannot stand the fat free version yet). You can make up breakfast burritos too ahead of time, and heat them up over the fire in foil. You can use turkey sausage, or turkey bacon, egg whites, and low fat cheese, hash browns are low in cals - and are just a small amount. You then season with whatever each of you like, hot sauce, ketchup, ect. Kabobs are also fun to make and everyone can build there own. Just prep you veggies and you can quickly and easily add your meat and healthy veggies to your Kabob sticks. Strawberry shortcake (we use angle food cake) with fresh strawberries makes a refreshing end to a camp fire dinner. Cut small pieces of angle food cake, top with Strawberries, and enjoy. We typically do not take very much can items, mainly fresh. Remember, prep your items so it is quick and easy. I go on Pinterest and get a ton of Camping ideas. Have a Great time !
