Camping Recipes

One of my favorite things to do out on the trail is to try new recipes. I made this the first night on the Mojave Road trip and I thought I would share it. To make it easier out on the trail I bought Marie Callendar's package corn bread instead. Pour in bowl and add water. Much easier. It’s is very tasty. If you got a good one to share let's see it.

I'll vouch for this one. Damn good chili...

Wow, I'm drooling. I've always been a fan of 1/4lb hot dogs when I camp. I'm on a low carb diet so that rules out the typical marshmallows and smores for me but I have a better trick. Staple gun a strip of bacon to a long, skinny piece of firewood(preferrably a hardwood) and put it over the campfire. Don't eat the staples. It gets a lot of laughs but you've never had a better strip of bacon!
