Think granola bars, multi-grain chips, wheat crackers or fruit and cereal bars. These snacks will last long, while boating or backpacking. Fruit such as apples, bananas, and oranges make a great pick-me-up on any trek. Also, string cheese, puddings, peanut butter, and yogurts are popular, when hiking.

Nothing fancy for me.  Give me some popcorn or pretzels and I'm happy.

When it's cold we do a lot of fondue-type dishes around the fire or at the picnic table.  

Banana Foster: one person makes the sauce over the fire while another butters and roasts a banana over the fire.  Then the roasted banana is put on a board, sliced up and passed around along with the freshly made sauce that everyone dips into.  Ditto for cheese fondue with steak, chicken and veggie kabobs.

If you have the type of fire pit where a grate can be put across it, lodge has a nice 1 qt pot that is perfect for cooking and warming sauces over the fire.  If a larger variety is wanted, their cast iron muffin pan can keep several premade sauces warm over the fire too.  Just keep those pots moving and stir occasionally to prevent scorching.

When it's hot outside, we have our compact snow cone machine for snow cones and slushies. We make the ice pucks at home and put them in a ziplock in the pod- freezer.   The syrups we keep in the fridge or cooler.

Found on the web what looks to be a good recipe for dutch oven cinnamon rolls (or a variant thereof):

Cinnamon Pecan Ring:
2 Loaves Bread Dough (frozen)
Melted Butter
1/4 c. Brown Sugar (packed)
1/4 c. Sugar
1/3 Tbsp. Cinnamon
1/3 c. Chopped Pecans
Pecan Halves

Cut each loaf of Bread dough into 4 pieces. Form each piece into a rope about 18” long. Brush each rope on all sides with melted butter. Stir together sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Place mixture on aluminum foil. Roll rope in sugar mixture. Shape rope into a coil in the center of a 10” Dutch oven. Repeat with the next rope and continue the coil in the Dutch oven. When finished sprinkle the remaining sugar mixture and chopped pecans over the coil. Cover it and let rise 30-40 minutes. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees, or with top and bottom charcoal heat, for 30 minutes or until done.

Glaze:
2 1/2 c. Powdered Sugar
1 tsp. Vanilla
2 1/2 Tbsp. Milk

Stir ingredients together. If the glaze is too thick add milk a little at a time until it reaches the desired thickness.

After the Cinnamon Pecan Ring is finished baking, cool it about 15 minutes then spoon the glaze over it. Decorate with pecans.

Would love to have the Cinnamon rolls made in the Dutch oven recipe! Hubbie loves to cook using a Dutch oven.

I don't think I'd want bacon in my day pack but I do make some good jerky.  Two kinds so far, one with ground beef the other was chicken.  Both delicious.
I also use the dehydrator for fruits and veggies.  You can toss some dried veggies in the cookpot and make a nice soup or stew.  Put your seasonings in the baggie with the veggies, add water. 
Course in the luxury of our Pods you don't need dehydrated foods.

Speaking of cast iron cookware  -- every time we drive north from Florida we pass the Lodge factory outlet in Tennessee.  Next time I think I'll buy the pie iron!  Loved the ones we saw at the round up last summer.  Good for the camp fire or in the fire place.  Yummy!
p.s. the Lodge outlet in South Pittsburgh Tn has a Cornbread Festival every year.  Check it out, it looks like fun!

Cake in a Cup - five minutes to dessert!

I've tried this and it works.  Thought there may be someone who hasn't seen this recipe so here goes:

3 Tablespoons flour
3 Tablespoons sugar
2 Tablespoons cocoa
Pinch of salt
1 Egg
3 Tablespoons milk
3 Tablespoons oil
1/8 Teaspoon vanilla
1 Mug

Directions:
Spray the microwaveable mug with non-stick cooking spray.
Add flour, sugar, cocoa and salt. Whisk with a fork.
Add the egg and combine.
Stir in milk, oil and vanilla until well combined.
Cook in the microwave for 2 minutes and 30 seconds.  Test and if needed, cook for additional 30 seconds. Let cool for a few moments and then flip onto plate.
Repeat for your spouse, travel partner or friend.
Top with ice cream, berries or whipped cream.  Enjoy
