Creating Family Connections One RV Adventure at a Time
Over our recent fall camping trip we did a lot of campfire cooking, and we dished out some fantastic food! Today I’m highlighting our Campfire Kielbasa Skillet with flatbread. This is mouth-watering, classic campfire comfort food folks! And the best part? It’s so simple to prepare! Skillet ingredients for about five servings: 1 package of kielbasa sausage (whatever kind you prefer), sliced 5 medium yellow
Over the weekend we headed to Ohio to check out a new state park near Geneva on the Lake–more about that to come on Thursday.

We’ve tried a couple different versions over the years, and we’ll highlight our favorites in the coming months. I found the recipe for this chicken foil packet dinner a long time ago in a Family Fun magazine and we’ve made it frequently. Ingredients: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut in
When we first started camping, our pie iron dinners were quite simple: pizza ones made from bread slices, pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni.

Ingredients (mix and match to your tastes): Tortillas (the larger
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.
