Camp Food Ideas

Okay, so when you start realizing that you will not be returning home after four days.  You start getting creative with food.  I will add to this list as I continue travelling and hopefully it can be something for people to come back to for ideas.

Perishable items that last a long time:  Potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, zucchini and squash, rice/almond/soy milk
This stuff can also be combined with a little bit of curry powder and some spices for a really good meal.  Or fry all the veggies and taters together to get a nice stew type meal.  Nothing too earth shattering here.  Just the things that I have found that can go without refrigeration and still hold up.

Things to spice up oatmeal: So we all eat it and probably get sick of it at some point.  Here are some new ideas.  I am addictted to putting coconut flakes in my oatmeal!!  That with a bananna is delish.  Also other things: dried blueberries/cherries/cranberries, peanut butter (for protein and taste), almond/rice milk, any fresh fruits that you may have that need to be eaten in a hurry.  Try any or if you're daring all of these at the same time. 

Meal Ideas: Pesto (can be used on pasta, in stew, love the stuff), curry, corn/rice/bean combos in burrito wraps, stew, fried veggie wraps or potatoe/cheese/salsa wraps.

These are just some ideas.  I'll try to add more as they come.  Please feel free to post up your fave ideas and maybe with a good list we will never have to be bored with road food again:)
