Camping… Food Ideas?

Looking for some meal and snack ideas for camping. Things that are easily grilled or can be warmed over the fire. Thinking outside the box… Not hot dogs or hamburgers.

Think of things tasty, easy to prepare, and require little or no clean up.

Cook as much as you can at home and warm up at the site.

Pre bake potato in a microwave at home. These are easy to slice and warm up in a fry pan with seasonings. A wipe with a paper towel takes care of cleaning.

Place all raw meats in plastic bags loaded with seasonings so it will be easy to cook without getting a bunch of stuff out of a pantry.

Do as much camp site cooking as possible in large tin cans. A roast of meat can be placed on a “grid” of clean nails driven through the bottom rim and cover the top of the can with foil. Soups can be prepared in tin cans and will provide a quick hot snack while other food is in preparation.

Tortillas keep better than bread and can be stuffed with almost everything on hand.

Hope some of this helps you have a nice time and avoid heavy duty cooking and cleaning. Can others help with some of the chores?
