# The Family Camp Cookbook: Easy, Fun, and Delicious Meals to Enjoy Outdoors - Hardcover

by **Emily Vikre** (Author)

**Easy, delicious, family-friendly recipes to cook at your next campout--whether that's in the woods or in your own backyard!**

_The Family Camp Cookbook_ is a book for **everyone who enjoys cooking and eating outdoors**. Whether you need to learn how to pack your first cooler or you're looking for kid-friendly recipes to enjoy after a day spent outdoors, you'll learn how to **plan, prep, and cook as a family** when you don't have the comforts of a full kitchen.

Start out by learning how to **build a fire** **easily** at your campsite, or use the "sure-fire" **guides for mastering any grill**. With planning lists and prep steps for the recipes, you'll **quickly go from unpacking to firing up your first meal**. The recipes inside include a **wide variety of updated camp classics** and **dishes you'd never have thought to cook at camp**. Cooking techniques range from **live-fire roasting and foil-pack cooking** to family-style dinners in the **Dutch oven**. (Yes, you can almost "set it and forget it" like a slow cooker if you know what you're doing!) Chapters and recipes include:  

-   **Breakfasts** cover a whole range of options to start the day right, like Make-Ahead Granola, The Best Fluffy Pancakes (with topping bar!), Dutch Oven Coffee Cake, Skillet Biscuits, kid-friendly Frittata, Chilaquiles, and a Hash Brown Breakfast Burrito.
-   **Lunches and packables**: If you're camping, chances are the mid-day meal is fuel away from the campsite. (These ideas are also great for day trips and picnics!). Recipes feature a variety of handhelds such as Farmer's Lunch Sandwiches and Chickpea Salad with Pitas as well as easy-to-eat salads and soups and a few trail mixes and snacks to eat by the handful.
-   **Dinners**: Ah, the main event after a hard day of hiking, paddling, or whatever else floats your boat (or inner tube). Settle in with DIY Ramen Bowls, One-Pan Picadillo, Naan Pizzas, Italian Sausage Burgers, loaded Foil-Baked Sweet Potatoes, or a Skillet "Lasagna," among other options.
-   **Treats**: Break out the S'mores Galores, but don't stop there! Build a Banana Boat, fire up a Dutch Oven Strawberry Cake, or treat everyone to a Campfire Cobbler or Cracker Crust Pudding Pie.

  
Of course, there's nothing quite like waking up in the woods...unless you don't know how to make **camp coffee**. Not to worry: tasty (and essential) beverages are included as well, from that rustic cowboy cup of caffeine to **restorative fruit punches**. There are **even a few cocktails for the adults** to enjoy by the fire a little later in the evening. No matter the size of your group or the time you have to spare, **make your next adventure a delicious one**!
