When you’re out in the wild, cooking your meals isn’t always an option. If you don’t mind canned products, lunch meats and nuts, you’re in luck! There are plenty of nutritious no-cook camping meals that you can enjoy over the duration of your trip. So without further ado here are 3 easy meals that will keep you energized for the next adventure.
1. PB Banana Sandwich and String Cheese
Your eating schedule will be a bit shaken up while on your camping trip. Peanut butter sandwiches, a breakfast staple, are an ideal breakfast for a day on the trail. This combo is among the few no-cook camping meals that provide the right combination of nutrients to start the day on the right foot. Use a hearty multi-grain bread to kick up the satiety factor and give you the energy you need for a day of activity.
2. Tuna Wrap with Trail Mix
Tuna and vegetables are very easy to throw in a wrap. The best part is that both come in cans and require no preparation on their own. Spread a thin layer of mayo or hummus over a tortilla and add peas, corn, green beans, or other canned vegetables. The nuts and dried fruits in the trail mix will round out the meal’s carbohydrate count for a great afternoon lunch.
3. Pita with Cream Cheese, Turkey, and Vegetables
Pita bread is a great option for no-cook camping meals. Stuff the inside of a pita with cold ham, hummus, lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, peppers, sprouts, and cheese and you’re looking at a nutritious and light nighttime meal. You can choose any meat, such as roast beef, turkey, ham, or even a vegetable based substitute, and Swiss, cheddar, provolone, or any other favorite will make this meal customized to your tastes. Add on a piece of fresh fruit for a nutritionally well-rounded meal.
