We have been working to get a fair bit of camping in this summer and we are succeeding! It is a ton of fun and honestly, it’s a cheap way to fit a whole bunch of vacations in. I have been able to book some really cheap vacations in the past, but I never save as much money as I do when I’m camping. I think one of the main reasons for this is that food is so much cheaper when camping than it is during any other vacations.
I love to cook food over the camp stove or campfire, but I don’t want to spend our entire camping trip cooking. So, I have a rule when camping. I will cook dinner each night and I make a nice camping breakfast one morning while we are there, but other than that we do sandwiches or pre-made food. These make ahead camping meals are our go-tos while camping and they keep my family happy and fed during our camping adventures.
Make Ahead Camping Meals
Make Ahead Blueberry Muffins
There is not a single member of our family that doesn’t love blueberry muffins. That’s why I love to make these blueberry muffins. Our family loves to grab them for breakfast around the campsite or snacks as we adventure throughout the day.
Breakfast Burritos
I seem Chocolate to be in the minority here, but I don’t actually like breakfast burritos. My son, however, will literally eat breakfast burritos for each and every meal. He absolutely loves breakfast burritos. That’s why I love to make these in advance for him so I always know that he has a favorite food on hand to enjoy while we are camping.
Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs
Hard boiled eggs are so great! They are protein packed, incredibly inexpensive, and easy to pack. Do you know what else they are? VERY EASY TO COOK. Especially in the Instant Pot. If you haven’t tried it yet, your mind will be blown.
Protein Overnight Oats
Overnight oats are a great breakfast idea for camp. They are easy to put together and a very healthy way to start the day!
