Category Lunch Recipes

Often, lunch for us is a granola bar or other quick snack to keep us going through our travels.  But when we have the luxury of a lazy day at the campground, it’s time to pull out our handy grilling baskets, tinfoil, and forks and whip up some simple, tasty meals over the campfire.  Allow me to recommend the Class in the Campground Prosciutto Mozzarella Sandwich, it is a personal favorite.

Pastry Hot Dog

The Spit Fire Hotdog Wrapped In Pastry is the ultimate compromise between a lazy and a lavish campfire dinner recipe. You can keep it simple or add any and all twists to make it the perfect expression of you...for your tummy.

Hot dogs have always been our fallback when we want to cook over the campfire but aren't up to a big production. But what if we want to cook over the campfire and have a mini production? This recipe for the Spit Fire Hotdog Wrapped In Pastry can be as simple or as complicated as your heart desires. Add cheese, role in herbs, dip in aloe, it's all good and makes for a great camping activity for both kids and adults. Kids can stick with their boring dogs while you can hunt down the hickory smoked sausage with gourmet catsup.

Bacon is no longer just a breakfast food. It can be ground into sauces or garnish drinks. But sometimes, we like to return to the classics. Such is the case with the Camper's Club Sandwich.

Road Tripper’s Tuna Melt

Tuna melts on the road can be a challenge. But the Road Tripper’s Tuna Melt capitalizes on ingredients that don't require chilled storage!

Some things travel well. Canned tuna travels very well. That can can sit in the back of your van for a year and all will be well. But the mayonnaise you stored with it will not come out so well. All the same, I am not one to allow mayonnaise to come between me and my undiagnosed need for a tuna melt. Instead, I present an alternative: the new and improved Road Tripper's Tuna Melt.
