"That's weird,"chorused my two daughters
when I emerged with an omelet cooked in a plastic bag. "Why
didn't you use a frying pan?" When you cook an egg in
a bag, you're going to get some comments. But it works, it's
slick, and it avoids the all-important clean up on your next
road trip...[More]
This salad recipe was inspired by the perennially favorite
club sandwich. It boasts chicken, bacon, tomato, and mozzarella
on a bed of spinach greens and is topped with a creamy vinaigrette.
The dressing can be made with either yogurt or mayonnaise
-- whichever you prefer. It's made with equal parts lime juice
and honey with just a bit of prepared mustard. If you prefer,
use a commercial dressing...[More]

I think back over our road trips, when the kids
were still young. Every time we stopped, they wanted to buy
a "treat". Sometimes we relented. When we relented,
our road trips tended to turn into junk food trips. Now our
kids are older... and we know about granola...[More]
During World War II, the citizenry of Australia
came up with a cookie -- biscuits, they called them -- to
supply the troops with something that would travel well, keep
well, and provide lots of energy. Folks packaged them in tins
by the thousands and sent them to the troops. Called ANZAC
Biscuits, they became a national institution...[More]
This recipe can really be anything that you want.
Don't like dates? That's okay -- use raisins or dried apples.

this unique is that it's made without an oven. You can take
it backpacking, to the campground, or use it in your RV. Make
it up as a mix before you leave home. You'll find this a convenient
and tasty addition to your road food arsenal....[More]
We're always up
for fresh bread away from home and we like the versatility
of these sopaipillas. They are great at home or in an RV --
as an accompaniment for meals, a vehicle for our favorite

as a snack for the kids. But they also work as camping food...[More]
