Do you cook five course gormet meals in camp?
Or are you more the open the bag and pour in the water kind of cook?
Both have their merits and proponents.
If there is no fixed camp I like to have some stuff that can be fixed in a hurry with little fuss or cleanup for those days when things go wrong. Rigs get stuck, stuff breaks, can't find a good place to camp until late etc. etc. When time allows we like more elaborate meals, still nothing to hard to prepare. Relaxing in camp after a day on the trail is important.
When we have a fixed camp things are a little different. IMHO spending time on meal prep can be a relaxing way to kill the afternoon. And a big Sunday brunch is a nice way to extend the time before you have to pack up and head home.
So what kind of cook are you?
