Tip-sy Tuesday: No-Cook Camping Meals

Katie posted this link for 25 no-cook camping meals she found here at Taste of Home that I'm sharing for today's Tip-sy Tuesday - it's been so hot here that any meals I can make that don't require cooking is a great thing!

I'm not pasting their entire article, you can click the link above or go to tasteofhome.com to read the whole thing. Here are some highlights:

BREAKFAST:

  1. Yogurt Parfaits. Plain or flavored yogurt layered with chopped nuts, chia seeds, muesli or fresh fruit can make for a hearty and quick breakfast.
  2. Granola With Milk. If you’re running low on cold storage, opt for boxed milk.
  3. Boiled Egg Breakfast Sandwich. Yes, a fried egg sandwich tastes great, but so does a boiled egg sandwich. Grab a croissant and fill with premade sliced hard-boiled eggs, sliced cheese and ham.
  4. Overnight Oatmeal. Grab a mason jar and create a bunch of these before you leave home!
LUNCH:
  1. Peanut Butter and Honey or Jelly Sandwiches. Here are 15 genius ways to upgrade your PB&J.
  2. Stacked Crackers. Pair your crackers with sliced salami and cheese or creamy peanut butter for a quick lunch bite.
  3. Hummus and Veggie Sticks. Store-bought hummus works, but making your own definitely is worth the effort. Try this popular
  4. Sandwich Wraps. Grab a cold tortilla, spread with hummus and your favorite sandwich toppings, like shredded lettuce, cucumber slices and cold cuts.
  5. Tuna, Chicken or Egg Salad Sandwiches. Mayo combined with protein, like tuna or chicken, can spoil quickly, so be sure to keep these sandwiches cold until it’s lunchtime.
  6. Apple Peanut Butter Sandwiches. Thick slices of apples topped with creamy peanut butter and chocolate chips can be served up as a snack or a tasty treat after lunch. 
  7. Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwiches. Cold bacon still makes for a delicious BLT!
DINNER: 
  1. Chicken Bowls. Canned beans (rinsed), shredded lettuce or cabbage, chopped tomatoes and cucumbers, shredded cheese and dressing of choice (ranch, Italian or honey mustard).
  2. Taco Bowls. Make taco meat ahead of time or make it meatless with canned beans. You can opt for a layered salad or let the family make their own with corn chips, guacamole, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheese, beans, olives and salsa. Top the salad off with a dressing, like a simple squeeze of lime and olive oil or stir taco seasoning into ranch dressing for a creamy topping.
  3. Antipasto Salad Platter. Italian cold cuts, canned artichoke hearts, quartered mushrooms, sliced cucumbers, sliced tomatoes, kidney or garbanzo beans, feta squares and sliced red onion, all topped with Italian dressing and served with crusty French bread.
