Creating Family Connections One RV Adventure at a Time
Looking for some fresh new ideas for simple and delicious gluten-free camping meals? Then you’ve come to the right place! Ever since our son started eating a gluten-free diet, it’s been a challenge to rework our eating habits, especially when we hit the road for our RVing adventures. Little by little, though, I’ve been working to build a recipe collection of gluten-free camping meal ideas.
Last week I shared with you my secret tips for no-fail RV menu planning. When plotting our travel menu, I like to select easy camping recipes that can be prepared in a variety of ways–some nights we’ll have a campfire meal, other nights I dish out of a slow cooker, and some nights I whip up a one-pot wonder in the camper kitchen. My goal is always to keep things
During our fall visit to Lehman’s two years ago, we scooped up one of Rome’s pie irons we had been eyeing for awhile: the waffle iron. It was several months before we were able to put it to good use on our Pennsylvania camping tour–but the wait was worth it. Campfire waffles will be a regular part of our camping menu from now on, and this
Since putting our son on a gluten-free diet at the beginning of this year, one of the sweet treats our whole family has missed a lot is donuts. I know, I know. They aren’t good for us. There is nothing nutritionally redeeming about them. But donuts are somewhat nostalgic for me: When I was a kid my dad would often take me to play tennis early
Over the summer Jarrett experimented with a simple and tangy campfire recipe called Ponderosa Pork Chops. With just five ingredients, this versatile dinner will have your campers calling for more.

Many of you know by now that when it comes to camp food I have two main requirements when selecting new meal ideas for our camping trips: They have to be simple, and they have to be crowd pleasers. During our visit to Bald Eagle State Park this summer, we pulled together a new foil packet dinner that earned a resounding two thumbs up in both
This past year I have been on the hunt for more gluten-free recipes to add to our camping meal repertoire. Fortunately there are a lot of great recipe ideas out there, but not all of them are a great fit for camping. I like my camping meals to be kid-friendly, simple (this is supposed to be a vacation after all), and ones that use easily obtainable ingredients
If you have not gathered by now, we love trying new desserts in the dutch oven! So I wanted a bit of a challenge and decided to make a cheesecake. I went to my trusty Scout’s Outdoor Cookbook and found a cheesecake recipe that I modified a little bit. And it turned out really good! The next time around I modified the recipe a little more to
Kristin and I had the chance to have a meal by ourselves on our last campout since the kiddos spent the day with their grandparents. So in preparation for an “adult” meal I went looking for some good side dishes to go with the steaks and potatoes I planned to cook. These bacon wrapped carrots with a maple-syrup glaze looked amazing so I thought I would
For many families making their rounds of the Utah 5 National Parks, a visit to Bryce Canyon is a highly anticipated stop. With its sweeping vistas and spectacular hikes, Bryce offers something for everyone. But with most of the camping options concentrated immediately around Bryce, families that want to escape the crowds and explore Bryce…
For many families planning a trip to the Utah region, their itineraries often center on hitting the high points of iconic stops like Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, and Arches. Several lesser-known parks are also worth the stop, though, and for families looking for ways to escape the crowds, Cedar Breaks National Monument should be on…
