I love using this Lodge Cast Iron Skillet for all of my sauteing.

This french toast recipe is best when served covered in strawberries and whipped cream. At least, that’s what the boys tell me! I simply cut up the strawberries before we leave home and pack a tub of Cool Whip in the cooler. Voila! An easy and delicious camping recipe that is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

Tips for camping meal preparation:

Prepare meals in advance at home whenever possible. Leave most of the mess at home where running water is more accessible and clean up is easier. Trust me on this one!
Create “one pot” family style meals for quick dinners that don’t require a lot of thought.
Use tinfoil packets, foil pie pans or pie irons. These tools help to make clean up a breeze!
Pack ingredients in 1 gallon size ziploc bags for flexible storage in small fridges and coolers.
Plan meals that use similar ingredients to help make packing and planning easy. These Cheesy Vegetable Campfire Dip, Loaded Campfire Potatoes and Tinfoil Packet Taco Salad recipes are some of my favorites.
