Instructions: 1) Pick out meals that you can cook while camping. Write the recipe on an index card, with the ingredients and tools needed listed on the back of the card. Punch a hole in the cards (laminate if you like) and clip them together on a ring. When you are planning your trip, take with you the cards you need for the # of days you are camping and use the ingredient & tool list to help you pack.

2. Make use of dehydrated foods like mashed potatoes & instant rice, even if you dont use them at home.

3. Buy some Rubbermaid tubs and plastic shoe boxes. Shop at yard sales and thrift shops for duplicate utensils so you dont have to raid your kitchen for every trip. Label each box with its contents so you are always ready to go.

4. A couple of items I wouldnt camp without: whisk broom and dustpan, 2 camp showers-makes nice warm water for washing hands and dishes, apple slicer, bungee cord and clothes pins for a clothesline, and a lantern hanger.
