our annual group camping trip is coming up, and i am again in charge of the food ( i dont mind at all). there will be about ten people in our group and i will be organizing food for breakfasts and dinners for four nights. we might stay an additional night, in which case i will need to plan anothe rdinner/breakfast.
so far my menu is as follows...
DAY ONE:
dinner: salmon, lemon, butter and dill cooked in foil pouches over the campfire. couscous (cause you only need to add boiling water) with a pre-prepared spice mixture.
DAY TWO:
breakfast: bagels and smoked salmon with cucumbers, cream cheese, onions.
dinner: assorted sausages and rolls. a big pot of beans made from assorted canned beans and a pre-prepared spice mixture.
DAY THREE:
breakfast: buckwheat pancakes from a mix and breakfast sausages.
dinner: grilled bacon wrapped pork loin and instant mash.
DAY FOUR:
breakfast: grilled ham steaks and potatos with onions and butter and rosemary cooked in the cast iron pot.
dinner: grilled marinated flank steak, peppers and onions in the cast iron pot, tortillas on the grill, avocados.
DAY FIVE:
breakfast:bacon, egg and cheese burritos. bacon egg and cheese mixture cooked in my cast iron pot, tortillas heated on the grill.
For veggies with the dinners i was going to bring a huge container of mixed baby greens and a good dressing and some assorted summer squashes, peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, eggplant to grill. also some melons for breakfasts.
anyone have any ideas that will add to my existing menu, or any tips about how to make these campfire foods better? i am at a loss as to what to make for deserts, one night will be smores for sure but i dont know what else. i have tried a few dutch oven cakes in the past but i was not impressed! any ideas?
