Make Camping Meals like a Chef

[@TravisSteeves]

My favourite resource for recipes is honestly social media. So many people have put creative spins on healthy on the go meals. We tried your pasta from a previous video and it was a big hit on one of our journeys last fall.

[@matthewmeyer6712]

I wanted to say thank you for making this video, your the first person I've seen mention utilizing a cooler. All the other videos I've watched are only highlighting the gear that they take with them and they never touch on what they actually eat or if they've ever experimented with using a cooler. I enjoyed the video and I now feel like I might actually attempt camping (1-2 days) from my adventure bike.

[@MotoCampNerd]

This video is perfect! You did great at explaining all aspects of food safety and meal prep so any newcomer to cooking while camping is well educated. Ditch the dehydrated meal bag and enjoy a nice dinner after a long day of riding.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Thanks so much man :)

[@GlobalWalkabout]

I think there is a time and place for the dehydrated meals though, (specially as I can't cook for the life of me, hahaha) but I'm hoping to rectify this problem for myself as otherwise the next 5 weeks on the road are going to get really expensive $$$ and as I'm not getting any holiday pay after the first 2 weeks I'll have to really watch my money!

[@MotoCampNerd]

@@GlobalWalkabout I'll admit during some quick lunch stops I've ate a bagged meal just because it was quick and easy. I try to make a decent breakfast and dinner since those are the times everything on the bike is unpacked and easy to get to. You will save some money cooking for yourself. Plus it doesn't have to be anything elaborate. Salt and pepper go a long way for flavor or even a pre made grill seasoning that works on everything works.

[@yaitsred]

Thanks again for a great video. For the pack in and pack out, I chose to make recyclable wipes. I cut up an old piece of fabric into rectangles fold them up and put into a sealed tight container. In that container I have a mixture of 90%+ alcohol, couple tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide and couple old drops of liquid soap. Once I used the wipe I put it in a plastic sealable bag to take home and washed to be reused again. Snows almost gone here. ;)

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Thank you for watching it :) I LOVE THAT!

I’ve only done 1 night overnights, but part of the fun are the diners along the way. I’m also super frugal, so I like just 1 meal dining out a day. I’m gearing up for something longer, so I appreciate the tips!!

I don't have a go-to for camping recipes, but Instagram has recently been pushing some yummy recipes to cook at home (out of nowhere, too) and there's been some good finds.

Camp cooking is my favorite sport

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

[@bobklaege5569]

8 years of my boys in the Boy Scouts taught me a lot of easy, fast, good meals. “Eggs in a bag” 2 eggs cracked int o a 1quart freezer bag. Add omelette type ingredients. Zip out all the air. Boil the bag. When it’s firm, it’s done. No dishes. Can cook multiple bags at once. Use a sharpie for ID. Pinterest is good for camping recipes.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

I have not had much luck with that method of omelette making lol something always go wrong lol

[@bobklaege5569]

@@AstheMagpieFlies My guess is too many veggies in the bag. Too much moisture takes a lot longer to set. Meats and cheeses work best. With the Scouts we would boil 20 at a time. Also just a little air left in the bag keeps it floating.

Some great tips here. I have to go back and watch part 1 still. I rarely bring much for food with me mostly because I bring to much other stuff with me, so I have to unload and set up camp and then run into town for some groceries. That works alright because I'm not generally moving everyday I usually set up and I'm there for the night, the weekend or the week. I would have to rethink my whole list if I ever do a big trip where I'm moving everyday.

Having grown up in Scouting and being an adult Scout Leader, there are a ton of recipes and camp cooking tips and resources online (or anything to do with camping). Camp cooking is a requirement for early rank advancement. Just search for "scout cookbook" or something similar or more specific. Of course the challenge as with most recipes is downsizing the ingredients to one or two people. As a Scout the foil pack or meal is often prepared for the first meal of a weekend camp. The Scouts prepare the meals at home before the trip and they are kept in coolers. My favorite to make was a foil burger, but it was more than that. Make hamburger patties or like a mini meatloaf with chopped potatoes, carrots and onions. Since the camp starts Friday after trip to the site, the foil meal is easy to have after setting up camp and making camp fires.

[@HarleyGirl75]

This is chock full of excellent information! I want to check out the cookbooks. We eat so much freeze dried food, I like making a meal over the fire. Thanks for the links!

[@roger4375]

While food is a necessary consideration on an outing. For me, it isn’t necessary to go all in and prepare meals. I do carry a small soft sided cooler that contains bottled water and a small amount of ice. It does the job and I work within its limitations. On occasion I do take the restaurant leftover bags and put them in my iced cooler. I normally save the lunch leftovers and add them to my dinner. Rest assured they go in a cooler (with ice) and they are consumed the same day. I do shop at stores for essentials, fresh fruit, drinks, and easy to fix meals. Sometimes it’s hotdogs and beans and other times it is something a little less or more. Restaurant meals are always (most generally) an excellent option when ya just can’t stand to look at another freeze fried entree. I get my ideas for camp cooking from what I like to eat at home..... and of course watching your videos Amanda......👍 Veggie kabobs, or sautéed mushrooms and onions with anything is always good, but especially with rice and potatoes. I loved the video, I appreciate all the information, while I may not do all of the things on your list, I hope I will do all of the “correct” things. Sometime we need to reconcile ourselves to the fact we all will consume an average of six pounds of dirt in our lifetime, 🙁.......but not all of it at once.😊

If you're food in a cooler has been over 40 degrees for over 2 hours boiling it won't help. You might kill the bacteria but the waste created by the bacteria will still and can make you sick.

[@OldGuyonaBike]

Great advice as usual... I do need to get a few more cookbooks. With the tent trailer, I can carry a good cooler and up to 4 days worth of food. Still need ice every 2-3 days. I would rather cook at camp than do the restaurant thing, but occasionally you just have to go with it. I will start out with a frozen steak, a couple of frozen chicken breasts, bacon, cold cuts and cheese, eggs, butter, pint of milk. I find peppers, potatoes and onions travel well... seems stir fries are a staple. When I was traveling on the bike before the trailer, I could only carry 2 days max worth of perishables in the soft cooler. Buy fresh when you can on your travels.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Yaa! Stir Frys are just like ultimate camping food, I wish more people thought of that as the go to camp food instead of hot dogs XD
