Fast, Easy Camping Meals

My boys would go camping every single weekend if they were able to.  They love being in the outdoors.  As fun as camping can be, it can also be a lot of work for mom! (Or the person planning the meals, packing everything, etc.)  While you are enjoying the great outdoors, you shouldn’t have to be stressing too much over food.  We are planning a long RV trip this summer, so I have been searching for fast, easy camping meals that my kids will actually love.

Which one of these easy camping meal ideas are you going to try first?

And while you are camping, you may need a few supplies to cook with.  These are a few of my favorites:

Of course, you can’t go camping without roasting hot dogs or marshmallows.  Remember to bring along some roasting sticks and the ingredients for Smores.

We also love to cook with our camp dutch oven.  There really isn’t anything better than Dutch Oven cobbler!  To use a dutch oven, you will want to bring along some briquettes and a dutch oven cook book for a variety of recipes.  We have cooked everything imaginable in our dutch oven!

And a camping stove can come in SO handy when you are rough camping.  We love our Browning Camp Stove!  I can cook almost anything on it!  If you don’t have room for something that big, these Coleman stoves are  great as well.
