Camping Breakfast Recipes

Delicious Waffles Recipe
Ingredients
Flour (1 cup)
Sugar (1 tablespoon)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Egg yolk (1)
Sour cream (1 cup)
Milk (1/2 cup)
Baking powder (1 teaspoon)
Baking soda (1/4th teaspoon)
Butter - melted (3 tablespoons)
Egg white - stiffly beaten (1)

Preparation
You will need to preheat the waffle iron. Then, mix all the ingredients in a large bowl except the egg white. Beat these together till they turn smooth. Next, fold in the egg white. You now need to pour ½ cup of this mixture into the waffle iron. Close it and cook the mixture. Ensure you cook it for at least 4 minutes for every side. Also ensure you use a light coating of corn oil on the insides to prevent the waffles from sticking to the sides.

Yummy Omelet Recipe
Ingredients
Bacon (8 slices)
Sweet onion
Eggs (6)
Milk (1/3rd cup)
Salt
Frozen hash browns (1 1/2 cups)
Shredded cheddar/cheese (1/2 cup)
Salt (1/4th teaspoon) and pepper to taste

Preparation
First, you need to cook the bacon in a heavy skillet. Once it turns crisp, crumble the same. Remove the fat but leave around 2 tablespoons. Make thin slices of onion and add these to the pan. Add some potatoes and sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Place this back on the fire and allow the potatoes to turn a shade of brown.

Next, beat together the eggs with milk. Add 1/4th teaspoon of salt and some pepper. Pour this over the cooked potatoes in the skillet. Let it cook and once the mixture sets, lift the potatoes slightly. This will allow the uncooked egg mixture to flow under the brown potatoes. Let it cook completely but keep a check so that it does not turn dry. Next, place the crumbled bacon pieces on top with cheese and serve.

Easy Breakfast Sandwiches
Ingredients
Egg - scrambled (1)
Cheese slice (1)
Salsa
Salt and pepper
Sandwich bread (2 pieces)
Browned sausage (ham or bacon)

(There are some things you might need to do in advance before you leave for the camping trip. You will also need specific camping cookware like a square shaped camp iron.)

Preparation
Fry the egg and meat at home. Then, once you reach your destination, butter each slice of bread on one side. Now, place the buttered side in the camp iron. Next, place the egg followed by meat and cheese. Keep the other slice of bread on top (buttered side up). Now, close the camp iron and place it over a hot fire. Cook each side for a minute and serve.

Use these easy camping recipes to enjoy a healthy time in the outdoors. Have fun cooking over the campfire!
