Camping And A Picnic


elfdream

Recommended Posts

I have two separate events coming up soon. Next week-end I will be camping out for two nights for a large Scouting event. Husband and I will be cooking our own food at our site. It will probably be cooked on a Coleman Camping stove..the other is a picnic.

For the camp out the food will just be for me and hubby. Husband thinks it might be worth it to make the food at home and then just take it there in a cooler and then heat it up. That might work for something like chili.

If 'possible' for the picnic I'd like to share something that even gluten eating people can enjoy. Are there any good casseroles that anyone can recommend? I can tolerate cheese btw. I'd also like to take a desert.

I will google recipes on my own but just wanted to see if you all could share what works and what doesn't!

I'm still new to this!

My hub & son are big Scout campers. They have some yummy gluten-free stuff. I think I posted it here before. I'll look and post some when the boys leave for school.

OK. I'm back. The oldest managed to break a glass on his way out the door trying to take his Claritin.

The foil packets would work on a stove I think. They make great stuff in dutch ovens with hot charcoal. We have made some at home, they are yummy but wouldn't work for a gas stove.

You could do burgers, eggs, anything you can cook on a stove top. If they are cooking with coals, you could bring your own cast iron dutch oven. If you decide to do that, I have a great recipe for jambalya and green chili pork or chicken casserole.

What type of thing are you looking to take! I LOVE to cook, and would like to share a recipe...but are you thinking.....mac n cheese....pasta salad....cheesey potato bake...none of these are really hard...just a bit time consuming...taco salad...let me think about desserts...I tend to just do a really big fruit salad with kiwi, fresh pineapple, strawberries, papaya, mango, grapes etc OR gluten-free cupcakes...the betty crocker ones and pipe icing...or cookies. The 123 pantry (i think that's the brand name) of brownies are SO yummy and most of my gluten friends do not even know they are gluten-free.

Have fun!!!

camping:

most important ALUMINUM FOIL and cooking spray believe me anything can be done with it.

I freeze ahead pre marinaded chicken , steak or pork chops (THICK CHOPS or they will dry out)

bring onion , peppers, mushroom and some whole potatoes, corn on cob or frozen bags of veggies if you are keeping a cooler

steak with onion , peppers , maybe mushrooms wrap in foil put on coal/grill , wrap potato in foil poke a few holes throw on butter, wrap corn in foil and toss in fire as well

Chicken in soysauce and ginger, wrap in foil put on grill/charcoal , wrap in foil sliced potato in thick slices layer with onion , peppers and butter

Pork chops in ginger, soysauce and orange zest wrap in foil throw on charcoal/grill , quarter potatoes sprinkle with seasoning salt add onion wrap in foil and grill,

If you are willing you can bring rice and try to cook it over the fire , throw in some HERB-OX bouillon into the water for flavoring

You can cook Asparagus, green beans,broccoli, cauliflower, squash etc... in foil just spray first add a little water if possible for steaming and do not leave on for too long , check every few minutes or they will be mushy.

Two quick things I like gluten-free camping. Baked potato with any gluten-free thing you can thing ofon top bacon, veggies,herbs, butter, chili etc. Also fresh bananas grilled! Pull open one end only, split banana alittle add marshmellows and chocolate chips. Pull that end up wrap in foil and grill!

Dish to share? What types of cooking methods will you have at hand? Do you plan to make ahead or there?

For the picnic I'll make it ahead of time. For methods...just about anything but frying.

      I had a triple bypass so do not eat cheese or butter but I use avocado oil freely. Do not eat potato chips etc every night anymore instead fruit and or bowl of cereal with nut milk. Diet is much cleaner now but qty remains the same. My diet seems nutritional enough and pretty much follows: breakfast- hard boiled egg, 1/2 oz beef liver, cereal: flax, milk thistle pumpkin seed and oatmeal mixed together Lunch/dinner-  meat, chicken or salmon with potato or rice or quinoa and veggies no oil sometimes salad with dressing. Bread if needed. supper- 3 slice bread peanut or cashew butter or 5 grain cereal with nut milk, or soup loaded with rice or whatever evening- fruit maybe potato chips or cookies when I just have to do it. Ordinarily try not to keep them in house. I put on a pound or so when potato chips are eaten for couple days. I use to eat much more fat but am more careful now after bypass so suppose that makes a difference. I think small intestine might have something to do with it but was looking for confirmation.

      I recall some statistic I heard some years back, that in powdered chocolate milk there were something like 25 different stages in the production process taking into account all the ingredients.  I can see that if this is true, the more stages there are the more chances there are for cross-contamination.  Eating whole foods helps minimise or totally eliminate this risk.  It took me several years for my tTG levels to return to normal, and looking back maybe processed food could have been part of the problem.  Definitely worth trying cooking from scratch.

      I've not used their service, but it seems like a reasonable way to go if you can afford it. Let us know how it goes.

      Are you eating enough protein, fat and carbohydrates? Healthy carbs like corn tortillas, rice and beans can help you gain weight. Increasing the fat content in meals can help individuals with celiac disease feel less hungry by providing longer-lasting satiety, since fats digest more slowly than carbohydrates and proteins.

      I don't mean to scold, but none of what you're eating there is food, every single thing is a food product, which means raw food adulterated with various additives. It's at that adulteration point where various nasties that the body dislikes start to creep in. Bulking agents, colours, sugar, various gums and additives. And of course, trace amounts of gluten. If possible - and i imagine this won't be easy or cheap, but it's worthwhile - try and get more whole foods into your diet, and cook them from scratch. That means meat, fish, tolerated grains, fruit and veg. At the moment you are basically eating trash - sorry!
