Here is the scenario: I have a group of church kids that I take camping and hiking. In the next few weeks I would like to take them "survival" camping. They will build thier own shelters ect....They will prepare thier own foods. They have to come up with 3 SIMPLE /EASY menu ideas for the camp. But they have to pack everything they need in. NO CARS. So I am asking for ideas that I can help them with as far as simple Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner menus. One of the smaller kids wanted to build an oven out of rocks to make pizza. I like the idea but I know it would be a lot of work.....maybe. Anyway, all ideas will be appreciated. |
| maybe some MREs.....you can cook eggs relatively easy with a small camp skillet just get one of those hard plastic egg holders......tortillas thrown in a skillet with some eggs make a breakfast burrito hats |
MREs are the easy way out  . Instant rice is good. So is ramen. I also like dehydrated potatoes. A slab of bacon will hold up pretty good for a day or two. Jerky is always good to have. You can just eat it or you can put it in stew or whatever. Trail mix is a must, too. I usually just make my own. Just put some raisins, peanuts and pretzels or cheerios into little baggies and eat them on the go. It's good, easy and cheap.

taking a cooler? (milk, eggs etc) if not, a dutch oven or stew kettle? dried beans, dried beef, salt pork and/or fish dried/cured sausages depending on how much you are carring, you could google some cowboy/chuckwagon/muleskinner type recipes using the above ingredients or more |
