A crock pot can be one of your best friends when camping! It allows you to get outside and enjoy yourself, rather than stay inside cooking.
I usually make up a chili or spagetti sauce or stew, and freeze it at home. Then toss it in the crock pot, and let it slow cook all day long.....yummy!:)
Open fire....hot dogs on a stick....baked potatoes (you can make a meal of them) or fish (wrapped in alum. foil).....and of course marshmallows:)
On the grill,it's tough to beat a steak or even just hot dogs.....but lots of people will get exotic with kabobs, corn on the cob, etc.
It really is up to what you feel comfortable with....and that comfort level will raise as you cook more and more while camping.
Cold cuts or just PB&Js are great for lunch....you want to do more than cook while camping...no matter how much you may love it!
You want whatever you do, to be easy to clean up and easy to serve....so don't get to crazy with some meal that will require 5-6 pots to make....strive for those quick 1-2 pot meals....your dishwasher will appreciate it:B
