While I love to have some outdoor adventure like canoeing, really I like to plan out a lovely snack or meal to eat outdoors. Here we have nice little salad I made from the framers market (mostly) made up of strawberry, blueberry, butter lettuce, goat cheese and toasted almonds. I put the raspberry vinaigrette dressing I made in a separate container.
I had not been camping at Kerr Lake in ages. I headed out with the group of friends for a short overnighter of car camping on the edge of the lake. The nice thing about car camping is that you can bring all the delicious food you want. I love cooking outdoors by fire or charcoal assisted fire. It just makes the food taste better. The dinner menu included grilled shrimp, sweet potatoes from our friends garden, salad from her garden also, and couscous (if you can make water boil you can make couscous). It was a feast. We also had fun attempting to get the Jiffy pop to pop over the fire. Don't worry no one was injured by flying corn (we had a slightly defective unit).
Breakfast was all the way. Bacon, french toast, and biscuits with homemade strawberry jam. I will invite these friends camping anytime.
