Meals for camping that don’t cost a fortune

When you’re thinking about food for camping you don’t want to have to bring your whole kitchen with you so you’re going to have to be thoughtful of simple meals you can prepare. Some of the best memories I have from camping involve eating and they aren’t fancy dinners. Here are some cheap meal ideas you can plan to make that will save you money as well as time.

 

1)      Campfire hotdogs – Pierce with a stick and cook over fire rotating until evenly cooked.

2)       Corn on the cob – Soak in water with husks still on for 30mins then grill over fire until evenly cooked.

3)       Baked potatoe – Wrap in tin foil and place in fire. Test if cooked with a fork.

4)       Eggs in a muffin pan – Cook eggs in a muffin pan over a fire.
