And of course we ate well! Let's start my 2009 Camping Grub series off with breakfast.
On Morning #1, we opted for a cooked, greasy camping breakfast of bacon & eggs, cooked over the camp stove. We also had toast made from a loaf of no-knead bread I made the day before we left. The camping toaster gadget was broken, so my SIL toasted the bread gently over the BBQ.
There is something about cooking food on a camp stove out in the woods just makes everything taste way better!On Morning #2, we had a super easy breakfast made by my SIL before we left: homemade peach crisp, made with local peaches. We had this with some vanilla yogurt and it was excellent!
On Morning #3, it was raining, so we had breakfast in the trailer. I had made some granola at home and we had it with, again, vanilla yogurt. The recipe for the granola is here, but I used some coconut in it, and only used whole almonds as I was out of hazelnuts. Yum!
The full camping Flickr set, including all our food, some gorgeous scenery, and a gigantic bug, is here.

This is some gorgeous food....camping or not!! YUM :D
Mmmm, the greasy breakfast is my favorite! Okay, what the heck is that bug??? It kind of reminds me of a scarab beetle... well, whatever it is, it's HUGE and GROSS!
Food is so much better in the country! I could go for some of those bacon and eggies. Much better than the Shredded Wheat I had for breakie.
It's a wonder you wanted to come - looks like a relaxing time AND great chow. Wish I had been there!
OF COURSE cooking outside over fire makes EVERYTHING taste better!
Sounds like a great trip
Delicious camping food! Hearty and nourishing!
Peach crisp for breakfast?! You are one spoiled camper! Are you going to follow up with the lunches and dinners? I love eggs and bacon while camping but hate hate hate cleaning the griddle!
Palidor: Yeah, that was quite possibly the biggest bug I'd ever seen in my life! I thought it was some tropical cockroach that had gotten lost! It's called Prionus Californicus. It flies. It's nocturnal. It hisses at you if you touch it. Yeah, ICK!
Joie: Nice to see you! Oh, I have a week's worth of camping grub posts coming up, so stay tuned!
I agree everything just seems to taste better when you're in the great outdoors...even hotdogs.
I TEND TO EAT MORE THEN I SUPPOSE TO WHEN I AM IN THE CAMP GROUND, ESPECIALLY WITH BACON AND EGGS. THEY ARE MY FAVORITE THING TO HAVE FOR BREAKFAST. Delicious!
Awesome. I remember camping when I was a kid, there is nothing better than the smell of bacon cooking in the woods.
Your food looks so yummy. Love food while camping.
OMG, it HISSES?? Just when I thought that awful bug couldn't get any more disgusting. Ewww... I'm glad they're not here in southern Ontario!
OMG serious food porn! My mouth is watering!
