    we use cast iron pans to cook over the fire.we like to make cillie quick and easy,and in the mornin we’ll use the cast pot to make a batch of scrambled eggs we wil use a few pieces of charcle for this because who wants to set a fire in the mornin.

    Something I cook for 5 family members when we hike and camp is lipton noodles and add salmon or tuna. With all of these items in a sealed pack all you have to add is water.
    2pks of lipton noodles-choice of flavors- I like the butter ones
    2pks of meat- sealed salmon, tuna or chicken
    for taste, molly mcbutter

    another good one is turkey sausage, get the precooked kind, take fresh squash and zucchini and onions
    some butter and you have a great stir fry

    melt butter in your pot add onions cook slightly, then cut up sausage in chunks, cook until sausage browns a little, add
    chopped squashes, simmer and add salt and pepper to taste, very yummy you can even cook at home to try it
