Camp breakfast?

Lately I tend to do very simple breakfasts - a bread product and some honey or cheese along with a simple drink, usually a cold one or green tea. More small stuff.

I used to do the eggs, bacon and toast but it just doesn't sit well with me anymore and I find if I do the big breakfast I tend to get out too late.

I will be giving Henry's brown bag style a try though. That sounds great!

Potato, egg and cheese breakfast burrito. All you have to wash is a skillet, spatula, knife and cutting board. Don’t forget the Tapatio!

I must be one of the few cereal and milk people. For some reason it keeps me going longer than a bacon and egg fry up.

If I eat bacon and eggs, I bonk and have to eat a few hours later, cheerios can keep me going for 3.5 hours easy.

I have ziplock baggies of cereal and I get those individual (10oz) 2% milk containers.

No cooking, no cleanup; however, I gotta have my joe:coffeedrink:

A cheater to make your eggs fluffier?? For every 6 - 8 large eggs add a sleave of crushed Saltine type crackers. I've noticed it helps absorb salsa, so burritos aren't quite so messy.

mmmm, that looks good! I've been keepin it super simple lately, big breakfasts wreck me....

Boil water for coffee or hot cocoa, then use the rest of the water for the Quaker Instant Oatmeal.

I also like a simple oatmeal w/ honey & raisins...and some freshly brewed coffee.
Simple to make, easy to pack, and hard to screw up.

I tend to focus more of the elaborate camp cooking towards kicka$$ lunches & dinners.

To save plates and silverware or avoid washing them by using tortilla or pita pocket and fill with eggs, meat, and tater tots :chowtime: :)

I love breakfast food, I can eat it anytime day or night :)

Though I often prefer eggs and toast for B-Fast, toast isn't easy on a stove and cold/hot cereal is nice, easy, and quick. Hot water on Kashi Go-Lean Crunch makes a nice oatmeal/granola. I'm eat this often at home too with a banana; low-fat, high-fiber.

I know whatever is cookin' in Brad's camp is worth a taste! He was always trying to share his very tasty dinners at the 2007 ExPo Trophy ☺

When time allows I love Chili Verde with eggs. If I don't have time to make my own I like Trader Joe's Chicken Chili Verde in the frozen section. Heat in an appropriate size skillet to your group...crack the whole eggs on top of the verde, lid to the desired egg doneness...a little grate cheddar over the top...serve with tortillas.

Simple, easy and good. Thanks Mike S. for that idea at last summer's AT Pyramid LakeFest!

Or if we're on a run where it's brake camp fast then homemade granola is my fave...
On one of our trips we're going to have to try staying in one place long enough for you to fix breakfast, that sounds great.

Like Spresso we usually eat a fast breakfast of ceral.

If we are in base camp and cooking for a group, here's one that folks seem to really like.

Coal Mine Breakfast
- Bake up a tube of biscuits in a 12" Dutch Oven
- Fry up 1 1/2 lbs country sausage
- Scramble a dozen eggs
- Mix up 3 packages of instant white gravy

Once the biscuits are done, layer on the sausage, followed by the eggs, followed by the gravy. Use top-heat only for 5 to 10 minutes until everything is piping hot.

My wifes venezuelan so we end up with venamex type breakfasts...

Arepas with pollo mechado/ atun con tomate et cebolla et chilli/ huevos rancheros...

Ok for translation....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arepa

Just about says it all.....

The flour comes in bags like flour, mix with water, a little salt and butter and fry/ griddle or bake

bread goes stale quick...these are fresh everyday

Cook cut in half and fill with the weapon of choice, or simply use instead of bread.

This is our favorite.....funnily enough made in venezuela...

Island Dining

This past weekend, my GF and I spent the weekend island hopping with our kayaks in the Passamaquoddy Bay (portion of Bay of Fundy, where whales abound and highest tides in the world). Every meal was terrific, but the best of the weekend was Saturday night. Set up on Spoon Island surrounded by sea birds and harbour seals we dined on Grilled Steaks, Scallops and Mussels hand picked from the flats as the tide turned, fresh fiddleheads found in the bush behind camp, grilled veggies, and a good Canadian Ale! Absolutely mouth watering!
