My Favourite Camping Recipes

Postby demtears » Sat Sep 24, 2005 7:17 pm

If we're going out for just a couple of days I've got a couple of recipes that are simple and contain alot of the same ingredients so less packing. Be forewarned: these recipes are definite heart cloggers, but once in a while we all gotta cut loose. ;)

For our first Breaky I make up a batch of French Toast and Bacon, cooking up lots of extra bacon for later and saving the drippings.

French Toast
Cinnamon Raisin Bread
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
6 eggs
couple tablespoons sugar
hearty shake of cinnamon
Splash of vanilla

Mix it up, soak the bread and fry it up with lots of butter.


For Supper I a whip up some Tagliatelli Carbonnera. Sounds fancy, but it's really simple. It's basically bacon and eggs over pasta.

Boil up your favourite pasta, I use tagliatelli, but any wide noodle will work. While that's cooking, Mix up the following:
1 cup of cream
4 eggs
Pepper & Salt
1/2 cup parmesan
bacon bits from breakfast

Warm up the bacon drippings from breakfast, pour in your cooked pasta along with your egg mixture, stir to mix, turn off the burner and let stand until the liquid firms up a little. Holy Comfort Food! Great for late fall.

To save even more time and hassle, I mix up the liquid stuff at home and seal it in a tupperware tub.

My blood pressure shot up and I had a mini-stroke just reading those recipes... :lol: Then, when my hand stopped tingling I wrote them down... :lol:
Reality? What a concept!

What the heck is Tagglatelli?

The Carbonnara I understand, we make it all the time, but we use Fettucine.

Tagliatelli... Just another noodle.

Tagliatelli is a little more delicate than fettucine and comes in little nests. I'm pretty sure it's a kind of egg noodle.

Gotta try that. (I don't remember even ever seeing it.)

Actually, I'm pretty psyched that they're about to open a REAL italian grocery store just a few blocks from me. No more Polly-O mozzarella for me!
