There’s nothing like enjoying dinner with friends or family out in the great outdoors. But roasting hot dogs over an open flame can get a little old. If you’re ready to add a little variety (not to mention some much-needed taste) to your camping menu, you’ve come to the right place.
Best Meals for Camping
Camping has a wealth of benefits, one of which is that you have more cooking resources to choose from. From your mini oven to your range, you can be creative with your meals. But if you’re like most people, you likely want to keep the ingredients simple and convenient. Here are our best tastes:
Shish kabobs
Whether you’re cooking over an open flame, in the oven or on the grill, a kabob is a great choice. Not only do you get a good serving of meat and veggies, but each person can customize their own skewers. Plus, you won’t need a cart to buy these ingredients: meat, peppers, onions and other veggies like zucchini or eggplant are all you need!
Dutch oven stew
Slow-cooking a stew is perfect for camping; just get everything set up and then have some family fun while dinner takes care of itself. For a great stew, combine cubed beef stew meat with crushed tomatoes, vegetable or beef broth, canned green beans, peas, cubed potatoes, cut carrots and seasonings. This one is totally customizable, so use whatever your family loves!
