Oh, yeah, I'm busy and don't read it everyday. Oh well, here's an idea for you (if you have the ingredients handy): Use flour tortillas and peach or apricot preserves to make "fried pies." Fill the flour tortillas half full with the preserves. Bend the tortilla over, and wet them around the edges with water. Using a fork, press the two sides of the tortilla together all the way around. Grill on both sides (or cook in lightly greased skilled) until brown and crispy. We tried this when we were kids, and the tortillas wouldn't stick together. However, we had a blast eating the flat fried pies, and we created some great memories in the process. A friend who had experienced the fun years ago, wanted to try it again on a more recent camping trip. The use of water around the edges made our second attempt a success.

Camping totally requires them.....anything BBQ'd is awesome and so is your menu. Another thing that is easy for camping ~ you should cook them over your fire, but, I suppose if you are glamping, you can plug the crockpot in to make these simple and easy Cowboy Beans!!! http://danicasdaily.com/quick-easy-slow-cooker-baked-beans-recipe/ Another thing that's fun is just simple breakfasts - eggs, bacon, etc. Then, you can save the leftover bacon for BLT's plus A - AVOCADO! have fun! haha – I think I could actually picture you not being much of a camper:D…just sayin’

A full kitchen and those yummy recipes? Ok, I'm in :) Ok, I am kind of a princess and refuse to go camping, but I would consider going “glamping” in that thing with the Zesty family.

Take a ziplock with roast red peppers, chick peas, chopped up chorizo and some spinach. Then make a fritatta with 6 eggs and add all the extras... its filling, gorgeous for breakfast or dinner and looks like you've made an effort without having to do too much work!

I've done the whole "sleep under the stars without a tent and on the bare ground" thing, and I hated it, haha. Enjoy! :) I’m all about “glamping” these days.
