Eating Well In A Fifth Wheel

May 28th, 2010

Just because you’re camping doesn’t mean your belly has to suffer with trail mix, and nuts. Food on the road can be just as good or better than food that’s made at home. Below are a few simple recipes that anyone can make to please the whole family.

Brats and Beer Ingredients: * 6 to 8 Brats * 1 can beer * 1 onion, sliced Preparation: Using a pot, mix the ingredients and place on a stove or over a fire. After the mixture has come to a boil, remove the pot from the heat and allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove the brats and either sear them on the grill or with a stick hold the brats above the fire. Brats can remain in the beer juice until they are ready to be eaten. Heat them before grilling.

Campfire Potatoes Ingredients: * 10 potatoes * 1 medium onion, thinly sliced * 1 green pepper, thinly sliced * 1 stick margarine * Seasoned salt * Pepper Preparation: Peel the skins off of the potatoes and slice. Also, slice the onions and peppers. Place the ingredients and slices of margarine into either a Grill Bag or aluminum foil. Add desired salt and pepper and seal carefully. Leave in fire about 30 minutes flipping halfway through. Check the tenderness of potatoes and enjoy.

Indian Fry Bread Ingredients: * 4 cups flour * 2 tbsp. baking powder * 1 tsp. salt * cup shortening (regular, not butter-flavored) * 1 cup warm water, approximately * Oil for deep frying (about 4-6 cups) Preparation: Using a mixing bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Add slices of shortening and mix until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Add water but just a little at a time to ensure dough sticks together. Separate the mixture into 6 balls and cover with a dishtowel for 10 to 15 minutes. Add oil to your skillet and heat to 375 degrees. Using flour to prevent sticking, roll out each of the balls into salad plate sized circles. Place each dough circle into the hot oil, one at a time. Flip once and remove when the dough has become golden brown. Remove excess oil by using a paper towel.

When you’ve achieved a creamy texture add the chicken and veggies. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until chicken is cooked all the way through. Cook pasta as directed. Drain. Put pasta in with the chicken, veggies and sauce and let warm. Garnish with cilantro.

Campfire Hobo Breakfast
Ingredients:
* 2 thin sliced onions
* 4 potatoes cut in small cubes
* 1 diced green pepper
* 8 fresh mushrooms thinly sliced
* 1-pound fresh sausage (uncooked) torn into small pieces
* 2 cups shredded cheddar
* 1 stick margarine
* Salt and pepper
* tsp. garlic salt
* tsp. Italian seasoning, dill or rosemary
In a bowl, whip together:
* 8 eggs
* cup milk
* Salt and pepper
* Sprinkling of the spices you used above
Preparation: Get a fire going until it’s burned down to hot coals for cooking. If you have a grate, put it on top of the campfire ring. Use folded up aluminum foil to contain the egg, sausage and cheese mixture (with mushrooms and peppers and spices). Try using a double layer of foil to make sure nothing leaks out. Put in margarine (cut into pieces). Fold the foil around the mixture from the top until close to the food. Place over fire or on the edge of the coals for about 45 minutes. Keep the heat even on the mixture at about a medium heat.
