ideas for pregnancy approved camping foods

so, next week, I will be camping for 5 days at a Festival that I am a staff member at.

during the day, I'll be able to get to food from the vendors so it will be prepared for me.

breakfast, ins't really an issue, since we'll do eggs and bacon, or pancakes on the griddle/fire. 

But for dinner, we usually make burgers and dogs/sausages (and I know those are fine when cooked properly, but I can't eat them for 5 days straight...)

:)

basically- my brain isn't working yet, and I can't figure out what to pack and bring with us, and want ideas! LOL

    "pregnancy approved" means nothing to me.  I would eat whatever I wanted.  When DH and I go camping, I usually buy a couple steaks and marinate them for a day in the cooler before the ice pack melts. That's usually dinner for day #2

  • well, SO and I are not novice campers by any means.We go camping several times a year and both of us have been camping since we were kids.

    we're just so darned busy at the festival that we need to keep it simple.

  • Marinade some chicken breasts if you have a cast iron camp skillet, and i always pack "foil pack meals", like roasted sliced potatoes and onions. Pinterest has a much of foil pack foods for camping ideas ;)

  • We just went sailing for a week, and we lived pretty easy as well (camping style food much of the time).  The pasta salad we made was with bowtie pasta, chicken, grapes, celery, and poppyseed dressing.  It was great!  You can bake a lot
