As for dry goods, essentials include potatoes, oatmeal or pancake batters, bread, noodles, canned foods like chili and beans, and snacks galore. Now that you have a shopping guideline, here are some recipes to try next time you’re cooking over a campfire. All you need is your preferred oatmeal, water, and mix-ins like nuts and dried fruit (all items not requiring refrigeration!). Just make your preferred pancake batter at home and package it in a squeeze bottle. While all your produce can be pre-chopped and shredded, I also recommend using a prepared meat like pre-cooked ground beef you store in your cooler or even a can of chili.
