I am a scoutmaster looking for some ideas in bringing vegetarian fare

to the campsite as I now have a boy who is vegetarian (does eat

eggs/dairy). Any ideas? Sources/references? I want to be able to have

the boys enjoy veggie some of the time so the new boy isn't feeling

as an outsider. Help!

 

Thanks!

I applaud you choice. My son who is also in scouts and of course a vegeterian is

left feeling like an outsider, as nobody seems to even care about nuritive value

much less being vegeterian. Every campout he is left having to bring all his own

food, and nobody helps, or says anything. A good trail mix is always good, with

lots of nuts, seeds,raisins, dates and dried fruit. You can even buy a brank of

M & M's called sundrops, which are made with evaporated cane juice, and are much

healthier. I always pack that for him, with fruit. Did you know that there are

soy sausage that you would be hard pressed to tell the difference? Also some

vegeburgers taste very close to meat. Boca burgers is one brand. Have you tried

making tin foil dinners with potatoes and carrots? You cut them up add

seaasoning, put them in tin foil seal,and put on the campfire. I have added some

boca burgers to these in place of meat for him, and he loves it. Hope that

helps. I have lots more. MARK.

I am a vegetarian that camps a lot. I do all my own camp food preparation.

We like camping in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of Minnesota the best and

since my husband is allergic to fish as well that is a double reason for us

to all eat veggie in the BWCA. I do dehydrate a lot of my own veggies and

even my own tofu. In the BWCA you aren't allowed to take cans or bottles

and since you are backpacking everything in, weight is a big factor. As a

result most of my recipes use dehydration.

 

I would recommend any of the following recipes and they would be just as

good without the tofu, which if you are feeding to a mixed (omnivore) crowd,

would probably be more popular. The tofu is really tasty small chewy bits,

but if you have kids that scare easy and say the word, they will be off in

the woods, gnawing on trees.

 

My daughter took a group of high school friends a few years ago and offered

to do all the food, if they would eat tofu, they did and loved it. I buy the

dried hash browns in a big milk carton in the regular grocery store. I buy

the tomato paste powder at our local coop. If you are camping not in an

area that restricts cans and jars you can use regular tomato paste and

canned vegetables.

 

Have fun, Pam Zalesky

Tofu - Italian - Frozen Method

 

Recipe By :Pamela W. Zalesky

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Dinner - Main Dish - Tofu Base

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

12 1/3 ounces tofu, lite

1/4 teaspoon dried minced garlic

1 teaspoon dried minced onion

1 teaspoon italian seasoning

1/4 cup cooking wine

1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

 

The night before preparing this dinner, slice each tofu block into 4

horizontal slices, wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper and place in the

freezer.

 

When ready to make the meal, thaw the tofu (5-10 minutes at defrost in the

microwave, turning once or twice).

 

Dice tofu into 1/2 inch squares. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Combine tofu

with marinade ingredients and heat in microwave for 5 minutes. Meanwhile,

spray the bottom of a large, shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking

spray. When the tofu bits are ready, carefully remove them and spread in

single layer on a baking sheet. Bake uncovered until the top is a deep

caramel-brown, 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.

 

NOTE 1: This recipe uses MoriNu silken tofu in either Firm, Lite or Extra

Firm. This tofu does not have to be refrigerated so it is easy to keep on

the shelf. However, the texture is greatly enhanced by freezing so we

always perform the freezing step before using this tofu as a meat

substitute.

 

NOTE 2: The tofu can be made ahead to this point and refrigerated in a

tightly sealed container until needed, up to a week. This tofu also

dehydrates well for camping.

Gene...when we're camping, we like to make kabobs and/or foil packet meals,

cooked in the fire. For either of these, each person can select what they want

to put on their kabob or in their foil packet, so every meal is individualized.

For the vegetarian boy, you could find out from his parents what protein sources

he likes...would he eat marinated tofu? Or vegetarian chicken nuggets that you

could buy in the grocery store? Or vegetarian hot dogs? Whatever he likes

could be made available so he could put them in his meal selection. If he were

my child, as a parent I would be happy to help provide those particular items so

that my child was ensured of eating adequately. Sue

There are meatless hot dogs, refried beans in the can come in vegetarian and

they can be rolled in a tortilla with cheese, sour cream, lettuce etc. The other

boys will love burritoes also. Canned baked beans come in vegetarian style.

Smores are vegan, so are pancakes, donuts, hot cocoa,spagetti. Its not as

hard as you think. If someone in the troop has a food saver they can make

vegan meals in bags that can be boiled. Vegan food doesn't spoil as easily

as meated food so its easier to have camping.

good luck

Gene,

 

That's great that you're trying to include the vegetarian boy. A couple

easy answers are to use Boca/Morning Star/Garden Burger frozen foods.

But they can be a little pricier than meat. Some meat eaters like the

hot dogs, which are pretty affordable. The biggest meat-crowd-pleasers

I've found are the Boca sausages (smoked, Italian, and brats) and the

chick patties. These are easy to prepare on a camp grill or on a pan

over the fire. Some real cooking can be introduced with frying/grilling

peppers and onions.

 

Beans and soups are also great veg options in the woods. Here's an

appropriate one from a crockpot book that my folks modified to be

vegetarian.

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method

2 pound Boca crumbles

1 large onion diced

to taste garlic minced

1 cup barbecue sauce

1/2 cup brown sugar

15 ounces chili beans

15 ounces yellow wax beans

15.5 ounces dark red chili beans

15.5 ounces red kidney beans

15 ounces green lima beans

15 ounces black-eyed peas

15 ounces pinto beans

16 ounces Northern beans

14.5 ounces green beans

to taste salt

to taste pepper

 

In a skillet, brown the meatless crumbles and onion with as much garlic

P.S. to everyone: I'm Ben and I'm new. I've been a vegetarian for about

five years, and I joined to broaden my cooking horizons. Some of my

favorite things to make (which isn't to say I do them often) are chili,

seitan curry and uncommon pizzas.

Gene,

First of all, thanks for serving as a Scoutmaster! My ds has been a Cub for

many years and is about to start on the adventure of Boy Scouting. The

leaders have all been great.

 

The easiest way to avoid the meat for one Scout is to not serve " mixed up "

food like stews and soups, unless they are flavored with vegetable broth. My

son has eaten a " hot dog " without the dog...just the fixin's on a bun, with the

chips, cookies, salad, apples, etc. No problem.

 

I suspect you are talking about real camping though, rather than just day

hiking and picnic-ing. Veggie packets in aluminum foil...corn on the cob

pieces,

onions, carrots, mushrooms, peppers, potatoes presliced and drizzled with

olive oil and salt and pepper and thrown on the grill are easy. The Scouts can

make them with their own favorites. When they are done, just dump them into a

tortilla, sprinkle with cheese and salsa, if you want, and roll and eat.

Hi,

 

There are some good veggie bugers, veggie dogs, and vegge sausages out

there... You may want to ask there parents what kinds they like. Also corn on

the

cobb, baked potatoes, and salads are always good. Sometime I take veggies and

wrap them in foil to grill you can do the same thing with a camp fire. Cut

up potatoes, carrots and whatever veggie they like wrap in foil and plac at

the edge of the fire and cook. Have't tried it that way but it should work.

 

Good luck and let us know how it works out.

Smores made with marshmallows are not vegan. Marshmallows are made with

I did a bunch of camping a few years back and was the only vegetarian

in the group. (I do eat cheese) My favorite camping food is

potatoes. Cut into chunks and fry in a pan on the fire (I do use

butter but if vegan that is not an option) with onions. For some

reason this always comes out great in the middle of the woods and

never turns out the same way when I try to make them at home. LOL I

think outdoors makes food taste better somehow.

 

Potatoes are rather heavy to carry but don't require refrigeration so

that was a big plus.

Hi Gene,

 

Kudos to you for taking the extra step to assure your vegetarian

scout enjoys the campfire food as much as the other boys.

 

When my children were young, we would spend a lot of time

with family and friends going " Camping " in Michigan on land

belonging to their aunt and uncle. We would all bring up campers

and enjoy large cookouts around the campfire.

 

On days when the rest ate hot dogs, I served Worthington brand

vegetarian hot dogs on a bun with all the fixings which were so

good, some of the non-vegetarians ate them as well.

 

Another thing which they all enjoyed were meat and vegetables

seasoned and wrapped in foil packets cooked in the campfire.

For our packets, I would substitute Worthington Tender Bits

sprinkled with garlic powder. They were delicious!!

 

Good Luck to you!

 

Iris

Tofu - Italian - Frozen Method

 

Recipe By :Pamela W. Zalesky

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Dinner - Main Dish - Tofu Base

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

12 1/3 ounces tofu, lite

1/4 teaspoon dried minced garlic

1 teaspoon dried minced onion

1 teaspoon italian seasoning

1/4 cup cooking wine

1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

 

The night before preparing this dinner, slice each tofu block into 4

horizontal slices, wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper and place in the

freezer.

 

When ready to make the meal, thaw the tofu (5-10 minutes at defrost in the

microwave, turning once or twice).

 

Dice tofu into 1/2 inch squares. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Combine tofu

with marinade ingredients and heat in microwave for 5 minutes. Meanwhile,

spray the bottom of a large, shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking

spray. When the tofu bits are ready, carefully remove them and spread in

single layer on a baking sheet. Bake uncovered until the top is a deep

caramel-brown, 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.

 

NOTE 1: This recipe uses MoriNu silken tofu in either Firm, Lite or Extra

Firm. This tofu does not have to be refrigerated so it is easy to keep on

the shelf. However, the texture is greatly enhanced by freezing so we

always perform the freezing step before using this tofu as a meat

substitute.

 

NOTE 2: The tofu can be made ahead to this point and refrigerated in a

tightly sealed container until needed, up to a week. This tofu also

dehydrates well for camping.

Camping vegetarians

 

 

 

I am a scoutmaster looking for some ideas in bringing vegetarian fare

to the campsite as I now have a boy who is vegetarian (does eat

eggs/dairy). Any ideas? Sources/references? I want to be able to have

the boys enjoy veggie some of the time so the new boy isn't feeling

as an outsider. Help!

 

Thanks!

 

Gene

I'm intrigued and would love to know more about the seitan curry and

uncommon pizzas.
