Hello All. I am typically a lighweight backpacker, or at least I try to be, and it has been years since I have done any car camping. However, my wifey and I now have a child a little over a year old and it seems a little early for an extreme type of adventure. We've done lots of day hikes together, but for our daughter's first overnight camping experience, I think Lake Harris Campground is the perfect choice... So, car camping it is! Looking forward to copeous amounts of cold beer and good food.
What are some of your favorite meals to cook when you're "car camping?" I'm looking for old favorites, tried and true. We'll have a coleman two burner stove (for heating water, or using a frying pan, etc.) and a propane grill (Q-grill) too. And, I love cooking dinner right on a nice bed of hot coals.
So what do you like for breakfast? Dinner? Snacks?
I once made a nice chili (vegetarian) in advance of the trip, at home and froze it solid. Then we simply heated it up in camp for an easy, tasty, healthy, lunch. Of course, for dinner I can simply cook burgers and dogs on the fire, or tin foil wrapped potatoes, chicken on the babby, or whatever. One time I marinated sausages, onions and apples in beer and grilled them on the open fire. They were amazing.
But... What are some of your faves?
