We find that on longer campouts, simpler is better. I would first
suggest lot's of dry breakfast cereals. They are of course quick and
easy for breakfast, and work well for snacking (dry or wet) during
the
day, a great late night quick meal or snack. Another benefit,
especially
on a longer trip where diet can get crazy, if anyone has stomach
issues,
cereal is usual light and tolerable...

Second, we tend to use the seal a meal and make a few crock pot
dishes
ahead of time and put them in the cooler. A bit salty, and they can
last
a couple of weeks bagged up in a refrigerator. I like to take a pork
roast, 3-4 pounds and do it up. Slice it and break it into 10 - 12
meal
packages. You can do the same with baked potato and you have the
microwave to heat up the meals and some veggies. I also freeze and
package mashed potato and a great 16 bean stew I make here.

If I were in a camper with 110 for an extended period I might bring
my
veggie steamer. Hell, you can grab fresh veggies anywhere and throw
them
in anytime. Fresh veggies will help with the whole diet change thing
and
keep you in fiber.

Lastly, of course, any kind of ground meat and a few buns, a couple
cans
of Bushes baked beans always make a great meal too. If you eat
hotdogs,
slice them up and throw them right in the beans YUMMY!

For drinks we carry cases of cheap bottled water and a few small
plastic
containers of powdered gatoraide of lemonaide, etc.. and mix it in as
needed, that way you always have lot's of fresh plain water which is
real important in staying "regular" on longer outings... Sometimes
however you just feel like a sugar drink with a bunch of ice

You can also bring some instant potato, quick stuffing, or bisquick
pancake mix to fill in some blanks too..

I purposely didn't mention Hotdogs (served traditionally) or
Hamburgers,
bacon and eggs, etc.. as those are probably a given. I am trying to
focus on the stuff that will give you real value between the burgers
and
doggers

Now, since you have a microwave too, you have an opportunity for
"breakfast potatoes".. You make your bacon, and eggs, and cheese, or
whatever slather it all over a fresh baked (skin on) brown russet,
split
in half and mashed out flat. Kind of like making a potato and egg
pizza

The idea is to try to eat as healthy and "normal" as possible as much
as
possible when you are out there. Being in a camper as opposed to a
tent
you have a much better opportunity to do this and everyone will feel
better for it...

HTH



"Healthy and normal"

As in:

breakfast potatoes
bacon
instant potato
quick stuffing
ground meat
hot dogs
salty pork roast


Blech!



That's about as "Healthy and normal" as the Freak gets.


Maybe a Canadian diet? Just came back from a couple weeks in BC. Seemed
as
if there was an over abundance of excess flesh on the locals. Seemed to
be
a lot of fatness.


Pfffftttt, bonnie ought to talk... We have seen pictures of the little
bald bowling pin. Must just gross his kid out to see the fat man coming
to the couch...

So, you think you've seen pictures of me, eh?
How much money do you have left from your daddy's estate?
