This week we went to Long Beach for Thanksgiving with my family! So, meal planning was essential (or was it really?)! We came up with this plan incorporating the leftovers from the week before. Suppers were family meals with everyone, so I didn’t include them here.
Do you meal plan for camping or just chuck everything in the car? We are used to back country camping, so we always make a rough plan and then bring more food than we need. This time we each packed enough food for both of us, so we had double! Communication is key, but I packed from 11pm -1am (when he was sleeping) and he packed from 5am – 6am when I was sleeping so we couldn’t call each other! The chart is a conglomeration of his and mine and it’s what we actually ended up with. I think we could do a lot better in the planning area by collaborating before its time to load the vehicle….. but you just do the best you can (and better to have too much food than too little ;))!
Picture was created using Microsoft Designer AI and the chart idea was born from the AI’s caption. I made the chart using FigJam.
Wow Lynelle, it’s so fun that you went to Long Beach! Sounds awesome. Planning food for camping is a must for me! I always make sure that I have the right ingredients before heading out into the wilderness. I might have to test one of your recipes out next time I go!
