Down Home Shrimp & Grits

We were in the South, so it only seemed appropriate to experiment with some local fair. Thus, we concocted with Down Home Shrimp & Grits with a camper friendly twist.

Shrimp and grits originated as a hearty breakfast for southern fishermen.

Hiker’s Bacon Baked Potato Boat Breakfast

Stoke up that fire for an amazingly delicious Hiker's Bacon And Egg Potato Boat Breakfast

So, back in the Tetons, I learned that I am not good at cooking fried eggs over the fire. Honestly, I'm just not good at frying eggs. It comes down to a matter of getting the heat and temperature right so that the egg whites are cooked through but the egg yolk hasn't congealed into some chalky mess. So, I am continually searching for breakfast recipes that introduce some buffer between eggs and pan.

Eggs & Bacon

I tend to have light breakfasts. Yet, I thought I would try some classic bacon and eggs. They wound up not being so classic as I discovered we had a surplus of asparagus, mushrooms, and onions. So, we made a veggie scramble.
