WHAT I ATE: CAMPING EDITION

Let’s talk about everything that my friends and I ate while camping in Buena Vista, Colorado the other week! This was my first time camping so I was unsure on what was best to bring/cook, but I have to say that we were all very happy with our choices. I would have loved to have a reference post like this one before I went camping. 🙂

🥓 Bacon on the Cast Iron Skillet: This was a Sunday staple! We paired the bacon with eggs that we cooked in the same skillet after the bacon finished. I was worried about keeping the bacon fresh all weekend, but we simply placed it over ice in a cooler and it kept well!

⛰️ Ground Beef Tacos on the Cast Iron Skillet: Just like with the bacon, we kept some ground beef over ice in a cooler and it stayed fresh! My boyfriend and his friend cooked the ground beef in the cast iron skillet over the fire, and cooked it in seasonings that we packed. We brought tortillas and other toppings including shredded cheese, green onions, lettuce and tomatoes.

🍳 Catalina Crunch: This cereal is my go-to snack for when I’m traveling! I brought the Cinnamon Toast flavor. The reason I like this brand is because it is low-carb, zero sugar, high protein, and high fiber.

🥞 S’mores by the campfire: What is camping with some s’mores by the fire? We went with the classic graham crackers, chocolate bars, and marshmallows. We simply roasted the marshmallows over the fire and squished it all together!
