Some people live for a meal cooked over a campfire. In fact, there are entire books dedicated to the art of it. Then there are those of us that want camping to be a little more about relaxing and a lot less about planning, schlepping ingredients over hundreds of miles, and feeding your family like a female pioneer.
For most moms, vacation means doing all the things you do at home in a different place. It’s bad enough when your family won’t eat the dinner you cook at home never mind them rejecting the meal you slaved over a literal campfire to create.

There is no shortage of resources out there for no-cook camping recipes. Most of these recipes allow for any prep work to be done pre-vacation and meals to be produced with very little sweat from your brow. Don't believe me? Here is an entire day's worth of meals completely cooking-free!
I love the simplicity and focus on wholesome ingredients in this recipe from Parked in Paradise.
The open-faced sandwich has gained in popularity in the bougie/ hipster crowd for being a healthier choice sandwich. Personally, I like them because they aren't shy about the fact that the bread is just a delivery system for the delicious filling. This version from the Florida RV Trade Association calls for avocado, endive, and grape tomato, while my favorite is a twist on the classic Caprese salad.
With pre-diced cheese and meat, and a selection of your favorite veggies, snacks and spreads not to mention endless wine pairings, the charcuterie board couldn't be more camper friendly. Seriously, check out this divine charcuterie featured in the GoRving.com article, Building Epic Charcuterie While Camping.
