i'm planning a camping trip and i know what we're going to eat for the rest of the trip but not the two breakfast's. what should i make? we'll have a kitchen stove, a griddle, and an outside grill.

1. Pancakes & Bacon (you can't beat bacon made in a cast iron skillet over a campfire!)
2. we've done this on many camping trips and it was always a huge success. large ziplock bag assortment of veggies and meats chopped eggs crack two eggs in a bag, add your fixins (ie ham cheese) smoosh together. remove air from bag and seal. drop in to a pot of boiling water for 11-13 min and viola omelette's!
3. I camp a lot and go for things that are easy to carry, make and eat. Here's some suggestions: Pancakes and bacon are easy. Buy shake n pour pancake mix and just add a bottle of water, shake and pour. You can even make them on the grill if you want, just cover the grate with aluminum foil. You can also make eggs pretty easily on the griddle with bacon or sausage. You could also pre-make a breakfast casserole (bread, eggs, sausage, cheese) and just heat that up on the grill, stove or over an open fire. If you can boil water, you can do instant oatmeal that comes in different flavors - just dump it in and mix it. Add raisins, craisins or nuts for more nutrition/flavor. You could go easy one day and just do cereal and prebought donuts or pastries. I suggest using coffee cups for all of these things instead of bowls since they're easier to pack and hold and eat from. Also, include fruit with each breakfast - bananas, apples and oranges are easy to pack and serve and provide good energy. Have fun!
4. With the array of cooking appliances at your disposal you could just about make whatever you want. I'm assuming you will have a cooler or some means to keep stuff cold. So you can cook just about anything at camp you could cook at home.
5. eggs, bacon, pancake batter, potatoes, and bread. or you could just take fruit and breakfast bars.
6. An absolute must when I go camping. Bacon and eggs. Nothing like the smell of bacon when you are camping. I also usually, make home fries and coffee. Wish I was going camping. It is too cold here in New England. Such sadness.
7. A bowl of cereal works just fine or pop tarts and other pastries but if you really want to cook you can always cook eggs, pancakes, sausage or bacon. They sell hard plastice containers to keep eggs in. Just look in the campining section in Walmart. They also sell just add water pancake mixes. The bacon and sausage can easliy be stored in an ice chest intill you ready.
8. Sounds like you have the preperation well under control, but how about the clean up? You're not going to want to make pancakes if washing dishes is a problem! Usually we start the day with "continental" style breakfast -- fruit and cereal or muffins and juice. The only thing we cook is coffee. Then later on when everybody is awake we might make a cooked breakfast -- or have a snack and wait for lunch. Breakfast meats are usually pretty messy, so we cook ours at home and then just heat it up when cook eggs or pancakes. We bring a plastic bottle of pancake batter in our ice chest. We also bring plastic jars with eggs already broken and ready to scramble by shaking. Boiled eggs are great for campers, but raw eggs in the shell are hard to travel with. Before you go to bed, put clean potatoes wrapped in foil in your hot campfire ashes; in the morning you will have baked potatoes ready to cut into chunks and put on your griddle. Oatmeal is easy to make and really warms you up on a chilly morning. Hot milk on your usual cold breakfast cereal is good too and doesn't make such a mess. Don't forget to bring tea and cocoa for people who don't like coffee but need a hot drink to get going in the morning. I don't understand the kitchen stove part. It sounds like you are bringing you kitchen range with you or something.
9. When I go camping breakfast is usually Mimosas. But a friend of mine makes the best breakfast skillets. She cooks bacon, then uses that grease to fry up some potato chucks. When those are cooked through, she adds some scrambled eggs, the bacon, and a huge handful of cheese. Cooks it all together and it is Delicious. I also took a rafting trip a few years back, and every morning we would fly fish on the Teton river, and catch trout. It seems a little like a pipe dream, but fresh pan fried trout for a week was heaven.
10. baked beans cooked overnight in a dutch oven over your fire. they're ready for you when you get up.
11. pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, toast. that's all i can think of right now. have fun!
12. pancakes, bacon and Eggs Omlets French toast Biscuts and Gravey. (If you have a cast Iron Dutch oven you can make the biscuts over the fire!) The Ideas are endless!
13. depending on the amount of people----eggs sausage potato's cheese mix all together in a pot stir frequently makes a great deer camp burrito --i call it deer camp mash!!!!
14. We always have the shake n pour pancakes, bacon, and eggs. In the camping section of most stores you can find a little container that will keep the eggs safe in a cooler.
15. slim fast drink and a b12 vitamin
16. Bacon and eggs with onions. Just can't beat them first thing in the morning cooked over an open fire. Fry up your bacon then put your eggs and onion right into the same pan in with the bacon grease. I know not healthy at all but tastes great. Then boil up some camp coffee. Fill an old clean coffee can with water throw in a good dose of coffee and bring to a boil. Be sure to put a green twig across the can to keep it from boiling over. I don't know why it works but it does. Remove the can from the fire. Throw in a cup of cold water to settle the grounds and you have camp coffee.
17. Pancakes, eggs, bacon and cereal!!!!!!! I always eat those in my tent! Easy to make and easy to clean! (Make sure the bear doesn't steal it!!)
18. In Scouts we've made this breakfast called "Mountain Man" - it's scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese, hash browns, onions, and green peppers. All cooked together in one pan (like a big ol' dutch oven). Mmmmmmmmmmm.....
19. heat up some water. then you can make oat meal and coco or coffe. or you can bring some shake n pour pancake mix bc u just add water.
20. bacon and eggs
21. Do you have a skillet or cast iorn pan? If you do you could make omlets make it easy and buy egg scrambles and you can add all the veggies you want and buy pre-cooked bacon or sausage and you can add some shredded chedder cheese on top
22. Assuming you have a cooler... I like scrambled eggs and bacon or ham steak. Quick and easy, with no measuring. We'll often throw leftover veggies or meat into the eggs. If you're feeling a little lazy, heat up water for oatmeal, or just have milk and cereal with some fruit. But, nothing beats the sizzle of meat on the grill!
23. A favorite of our Boy Scout troop is the Breakfast Burrito. You add whatever fillings you like with eggs and a meat, then heat up the tortillia on the griddle, fill it up with the fixings and fold it up. Best of all, there's little to clean up.
24. potatoes and eggs are a must for camping. i usually prepare ahead of time some diced potatoes and onions seasoned with garlic salt, pepper and dried parsley coat in oil or butter. wrap in heavy duty foil and place on the grill. while thats cooking fry your bacon and then eggs cant beat that taste or smell when camping. don't forget the coffee pot. add fresh fruit to the table and your golden
25. JUST CRACK OPEN A BEER,,YER CAMPIN', RIGHT,,,,,,,
