The basic rule for wintertime camp cooking is: quick and easy to prepare (and clean up), but packs lots of healthy calories.
I mean if you really want to go all fancy and gourmet, you can. But as this is a preparedness site, our focus is on meals that provide plenty of nourishing calories for us to burn in survival situations where it’s also cold. We’ll elaborate on that as we talk about planning our menu next.
Planning a menu appropriate for winter
Decide how many meals you’ll need and then decide what those meals will be and when you’ll eat them. There are three keys to a winter menu:
- It should be warm.
- It should have lots of calories.
- Prep and cleanup should be fast and easy.
