Breakfast foil packet recipes make it possible to eat well as a family for the most important meal of the day – even when you’re away from home.

CAMPFIRE FRENCH TOAST

Placing a whole loaf of bread in one foil packet instead of pan frying individual pieces greatly simplifies making French toast for the family. The addition of ripe strawberries adds fresh flavor and vibrant color to this satisfying meal.

INDIAN SPICED BAKED POTATOES + EGGS

Do you like Indian food? Bet you never thought curry powder and turmeric would be on the breakfast menu, but this dish of healthy baked potatoes and eggs and Indian spices brings traditional potatoes and eggs from ordinary to extraordinary. I also like the recommended serving suggestion of topping the meal with sriracha after cooking for those of us who enjoy some extra spice. This dish can also be made paleo friendly – just substitute the yellow potatoes for sweet potatoes.

BREAKFAST BURRITOS

These make-ahead breakfast burritos can make your next camping trip easier, but you can also adapt this recipe to streamline any busy morning – just pop in the microwave of a 350 degree oven until warm.

ORANGE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Just like the burritos above, these breakfast muffins can be prepared ahead of time, so you can use your camping trip to enjoy time with your family. Just put the muffin batter in empty orange peels, wrap in foil, and keep in the cooler until you’re ready to bake these by the fire.

CAMPFIRE S’MORES GRANOLA

Breakfast + dessert all rolled into one tasty, sweet concoction. Sure, it’s decadent, but you can treat yourself while on vacay with the family and rest assured you’re burning off those extra calories on the trails.

ORANGE CINNAMON ROLL

This recipe uses canned cinnamon rolls with icing, so the only prep work is hollowing out the oranges, which you can do at home or by the campfire. Super simple!
