Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hi Everyone, We are planning a 2 week camping trip and I figure I'd better take most of our food with us.? Does anyone have any good ideas for camping food?? We will have a little propane stove with us. I was thinking granola and granola bars would be a good breakfast cereal.? There was a recipe that looked good that I saw in a library book.? It was either " The Gluten Free Vegan " or " The Gluten Free Vegetarian Kitchen " ? (I'm inclined to say it was the latter.)? Does anyone have these books to give me the granola recipe?? (It used puffed rice as a base for the granola.)? Any other good recipes would be greatly appreciated!? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 I camp all the time with our kids.....you can make cream of rice cereal and add fruit, honey, granola, whatever you can eat for breakfast--or a tofu scramble......even in the great outdoors you can make almost whatever it is you can make at home--we tend to make alot of vegetarian soups and stews, with great success, even with my Venture Crew comprised of kids who'd rather just put a hot dog on a stick over the fire..........our current trend is to make healthier dishes using more vegetables---we are using some meats and just making sure there are meatless options (cooking meat separately sometimes) for the vegetarias/vegans in our group. Pasta dishes are easy to make also in the great outdoors.....I personally love to make a gluten free pancake w/choc chips served with fresh fruit with a good tea.....next weekend!!!!

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 There's a recipe that fits that description in The Gluten-Free Vegan. I'll email it to you privately, Alina.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hi Alina, We love camping and we are gluten free, but we haven't let that stop us. I take an ice chest, and my propane stove and I cook food. I close my mind to what is traditional camping food, and think about what we eat at home, and then I pack the trunk. We eat great and enjoy our trip. If it is a road trip it is easier because we can stop every other day and get fresh produce. We eat salad, we eat potatoes. I pressure cook lentils and beans. We have granola made at home from gluten free oats. I make scrambled tofu and fried potatoes for some breakfasts. I make rice and curry of all kinds. Some of these foods take a little longer to cook, but I just plan ahead. I am up a little earlier then many people in the family, so I often make the first meal of the day a heavy meal, because there is time to cook then, and then we have a snacky meal for lunch if we are hiking or exploring, and a fruit and cereal supper. If we are on the road, we will stop at a park or rest area for lunch and I pull out a bag of pre washed lettuce, a cucumber, tomato, red pepper, green onion, etc and divide it between the individual salad bowls. I don't eat many bottled salad dressings. My simple on the road dressing is put straight on my bowl of salad and then mixed in. My bowls are 5 - 6 cup plastic bowls with lids. I squeeze on the juice from 1/2 of a lime. Spoon on some tahini, and then sprinkle on onion powder, garlic powder and salt that I put in little shakers and keep in a ziplock bag. Divide a can of olives among the family and a can of garbonzo beans. Stir, and I've got lunch ready in 5 - 10 minutes. I keep fruit, and nuts on hand for those who want a little more. Sometimes my growing boy eats a can of beans all by himself. I know no everyone eats like we do, but may be the main idea will help: eat what you eat at home.
