    Our Camping Menu! I can't wait!!

    We are going camping next weekend at Lake Rathbun (just in case you wanted to google it if you're bored! LOL!) and mom and I just decided on our menu. Of course my favorite part of camping is the food and drinks!!

    Friday Night- fried shrimp with chipotle honey dipping sauce and grilled BBQ chicken pizza

     

    Saturday morning- breakfast scramble over the fire

    Saturday afternoon-tuna salad and chipotle chicken salad with potato salad and ranch pasta salad

    Saturday night- BBQ chicken legs and pork ribs with baked beans and fire pies

     

    And I think my drink of the weekend will be Cherry UV Vodka with 7Up!

    I can't wait!!

    Sounds good!  What's a "fire pie"?

    Pretty fancy eats for camping.  DH would think I was nuts if I had that menu.  LOL  Have fun and drink one for me.

    A fire pie is two slices of bread, buttered on one side, placed butter side down in a pie iron and filled with your favorite pie filling. Hold it over the fire until toasted and dust with powdered sugar. They are so good!!! We also use the same method and fill them with different pizza toppings.

    I think planning the food and all is one of the parts I like best about camping!

    When I was a kid we called them "Hobo Pies" - they were yummy!

    man, you just reminded me that we havent even used our pie irons yet this year!  By the time we are sitting around the fire in the evening (too hot during the day) we have eaten so much food that the thought of digging out more food, just isn't all that interesting!  Might just have to do it at home one of these days instead!

     

    I agree, camping is about food, as long as you also keep active, like camping on the far end from the bathroom and drinking too much water! LOL.  My kids keep me running, me on foot, them on bikes, works for both of us!

     

    Hey, you need a few hotdogs, for those midnight munchies!  Nothing like a roasted hotdog with ketchup, mustard, and relish, MMMMM!

    I love good food when camping.  We used to do extended family trips and we ate good food!  We finally decided to split up the cooking.  We each prepared a meal for everyone, took turns that way.  We ended up hauling much less food with us and it worked out great!  Have fun!

     we had round ones when i was a kid.....right after they discovered fire, and we had a gas stove, we usually put applesauce between the bread, trimmed off the crusts and had apple pies...they were good!!!
