1. Omelette in a Bag

favfamilyrecipes.com

This is the perfect breakfast when you are feeding a group of picky eaters (aka kids). All you need is some ziplock bags and a pot of water. Use your campfire or stovetop to cook these one of a kind, customized omelettes.

How it Works:
Each person gets a zip lock bag. They put into the bag 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of water and their choice of fillings including:

  • 2 tablespoons of cheese
  • 1 tablespoon onion or bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup of pre-cooked breakfast meat (ham, bacon, chorizo or chicken)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Fresh basil
  • Fresh rosemary
  • Chili flakes

What To Do:

  1. 1. Bring a pot of water to a rolling bowl.
  2. Have each person mix their eggs and water into the bag and squish it up a bit.
  3. Add the toppings of choice and seal (make sure to get the excess air out of the bag).
  4. Squish and mix.
  5. Place the baggie into the boiling water and move around in the pot from time to time.
  6. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes. Keep your eye on them to decide when they are done.
  7. Remove from the water and carefully open the bag. Slip onto a plate, eat and enjoy! These are light, fluffy and oh so easy.

2. Breakfast Burritos

This breakfast works best if you prepare the ingredients before hand. If you don’t have time for prep, consider using pre-chopped onions (from the produce section) and cook ready potatoes from the refrigerator section.

What You Will Need:

  • Large flour tortillas
  • Potato squares
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Green or Yellow Onions
  • Green Peppers
  • Sausage, Bacon or Veggie crumbled meat
  • 2 eggs per burrito
  • Grated cheese
  • Salsa
  • Sour cream or Ranch dressing
  • Heavy Duty Foil

What to Do:

  1. If your doing your preparation at home, cut your potatoes into squares and par boil them to tender but not completely cooked. Drain and add salt and pepper.
  2. Slice onions and or peppers and place in container.
  3. Precook meat, crumble and place in container.
  4. Place everything in the fridge or cooler for your trip.
  5. At the campsite heat your frying pan with a touch of oil. Add the meat and potato mix and stir until warm.
  6. Beat the eggs and pour over potato and meat mix. Cook until scrambled.
  7. Make large foil squares and place 1 tortilla on top. Place the cooked mix from the frying pan into the middle of the tortilla.
  8. Fold and roll your burrito and roll it up in the foil. Twist to make sure the ends are secure.
  9. Place your foil burritos over the campfire on the grill. You can also just heat them in the microwave (without the foil) but this is a super cool RVing breakfast if you have a campfire and want to use it. Flip your burritos after about 5 minutes. The cheese will melt.
  10. CAREFULLY remove and open the foil. Enjoy your burrito, but remember these babies are HOT!

#4 Fresh Berry Pancakes

Fresh berry pancakes can’t be beat. Heat up that griddle and be sure to toss in slightly thawed or fresh blueberries. Add a dash of cinnamon for a warm, homey taste! This meal is great served with apple chicken sausage that can also be cooked on the grill.

5. Overnight Apple Pie Oatmeal

theyummylife.com

This is a healthy breakfast treat that can easily be prepared the night before in your slow cooker. The key is spraying your slow cooker with oil before you begin. Make sure it is thickly covered or it will really stick.

If the weather’s good, set up your slow cooker on the picnic table outside. Plug it into an extension cord and let it cook outside. In the morning, give everyone a bowl and open the pot. TA DAH! Breakfast is served. NOTE: This oatmeal will be HOT. Give it time to cool or you may burn the roof of your mouth.

What You Will Need:

  • 2 apples, peeled, cored and diced into small chunks
  • 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk
  • 1 1/2 cups of water
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

What To Do:

  1. Once your crock pot is oiled add all the ingredients except the brown sugar and cinnamon
  2. Cook on LOW for 5-7 hours. Use your timer if necessary and have the slow cooker, turn itself on when needed.

IMPORTANT: This recipe is designed for steel cut oats because they work well in crock pots. You can adjust the flavors, additives or fruits you mix with this recipe. If you want to be sure of a big success, test this recipe on your own crock pot prior to camping. Crockpots vary and you’ll want to make sure you know just how long to cook breakfast in your specific unit.

  6. Give the batter time to rest.  5 minutes should do the trick.  During this time the batter will thicken.

  8. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cook in the tins for 10  minutes.

7. Cereal and Toast

thegrocerygirls.com

You were expecting something else? The truth is that cereal and toast make a super easy RVing breakfast. For a fun change why not buy the mini cereal variety packs. Your family can choose a cereal they have always wanted to try!

Toast doesn’t have to be boring! Choose apple or cinnamon bread, or order a toast stamper to convey a morning message like “Good Morning” or “I love you.”  You can also add your own message by toasting bread and writing a message with a chopstick while the toast is hot!

8. Cinnamon Rolls On a Stick

10. Breakfast Quiche On The Go

wefollowpics.com

These can be baked and frozen ahead of time, or you can make the mix the night before and bake them off fresh in the morning. This recipe does not use a shell but you can purchase tiny pillow shells pre-made in the dessert section of your grocery freezer. If you plan to use a shell, these quiche look like mini tarts.

What You Will Need:

  • A mini muffin pan and spray oil
  • 1/4 cup Chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup Chopped green pepper and red pepper
  • 1/2 cup Shredded cheese
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1/2 pound breakfast sausage.
  • 6 eggs, whisked

 What To Do:

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees and spray your muffin pan.
  2. Cook breakfast sausage in a skillet and when nearly done, sauté the onion and peppers in the same pan. You want the sausage, crisp and the onion & peppers soft.
  3. Whip your eggs in a bowl and add the salt and pepper. I like to toss in a bit of basil or Italian seasoning as well.
  4. Add shredded cheese of your choice to the egg mixture.
  5. Let the meat and peppers cool a bit and then spoon them into the bottom of the muffin tins.
  6. Cover the meat mixture with the egg mixture. Only fill them to half full.
  7. Carefully transfer into the oven and cook for 10 minutes or less. Check the center with a toothpick to ensure the eggs are fully cooked.
  8. You can cook these in full size muffin tins but it will take at least 20 minutes. Adjust time accordingly.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool a bit before serving.  These are great with fresh fruit or pancakes!
