The New Camp Cookbook: Gourmet Grub for Campers, Road Trippers, and Adventurers by Will Taylor, Linda Ly
4.0
I love a good car camping trip as much as the next guy, and appreciate the detailed gear, pantry and recipe lists in “The New Camp Cookbook”. This cookbook really counts on your bringing a good cooler, and being able to cook over an open fire or on a camp stove. That being said, there are plenty of tasty recipes provided here.
Being tasked with menu planning for a three day fall backpacking trip, I was hoping for a little more in the non-refrigerated/cooler recipe ideas, and though they were not as plentiful, I did get some helpful ideas (packaged polenta in Margarita Polenta Pizza Bites, hummus in Mediterranean Wraps, dried sausage, Quinoa Bowls, lentils in Red Lentil Soup) for our trip. We won’t be packing as light as freeze-dried, but boy will we be eating better.
