Wait……Nobody puts their food on the manifold while you’re driving to the trails?

I've cooked many things that way not only on trails. Chicken and rice a time or two even. The latter I got "high tech" got a 12v truckers oven for it. The 4.0 had a great place for engine compartment cooking. :giggle:

Anything I posted last night or early today could have been influenced.

My typical start of the day is 2 eggs, 2-3 slices of sausage, 2 cups of coffee and slice of cheese on bread or burrito. Home or otherwise now. Occasionally bacon or ham for a occasionally change.

Meals in plastic bags are great when considering the clean-up. Not having to wash pots and pans is my goal. I'd rather spend my time relaxing in the outdoors.

Meals in bags are quite expensive for what they are.

My favorite breakfast is a bag omelet. Qt ziploc freezer bag filled with eggs, milk, bacon, mushrooms, green pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly in the freezer bag and remove as much air as possible. Boil until eggs look done. You can add pre cooked bacon as well . If the bag remained sealed, clean up is minimal. Keep it simple.
Reason why i went with a microwave setup. Simple hot meal in a couple minutes. Even foods that i don't usually eats at home be tasting great in middle no where lol

You place the bags in a pot of water and boil them. Eat out of the bag. Very little clean up and very little trash to deal with. The freezer bags are for durability when boiling. Non- freezer bag tend to rip open during the boiling process.
That’s a genius way to cook while camping—minimal cleanup and no mess to deal with! Using freezer bags for durability is a solid tip too. Definitely keeping this in mind for the next trip. Thanks for sharing!

We make breakfast burritos prior to our trip, wrap them in parchment paper and tin foil and freeze them (parchment paper helps keep them from sticking to the tinfoil). Plan accordingly to thaw out what we need for each morning, toss them on the griddle/flat iron and heat them up. We like when the tortilla gets that little bit of crisp to it, so we heat them without the wrappers, but you can leave them in the tinfoil.

Easy to make even if it's just stopping quick at a rest stop. No mess, nothing to clean up other than tossing the wrappers away.

We also portion out pre-mix oatmeal with dehydrated berries and such and vac seal them in boilable bags. Then we just heat up water, pour it into the bags and eat right out the bag. Again, no mess other than the bag that you just throw away. I think it's coconut blueberry oatmeal thats my fav.

Theres a trick to vac sealing oatmeal, or anything that has any light loose stuff or powder to it. Put it in a ziplock first, poke some holes at the top of the ziplock bag, and then put the ziplock in the vac seal bag. This way when you pull all the air out of the bag you don't pull all the loose stuff out with it.
That’s some next-level camping meal prep! The breakfast burritos sound like the perfect mix of convenience and flavor—love the idea of crisping up the tortillas for that extra texture. And the oatmeal trick is genius! Coconut blueberry oatmeal sounds like a solid choice too. Definitely taking notes on the vac sealing hack—never would’ve thought of that. Appreciate you sharing these tips!

Haha, now that’s some next-level efficiency! Cooking on the go—literally. Ever tried it yourself? I’d love to hear how that turns out! :idea:

That’s some serious dedication to engine compartment cooking! Chicken and rice on the go sounds next level—especially with the "high-tech" upgrade. Gotta respect the creativity! And that breakfast lineup? Solid fuel for any adventure. Might have to try that trucker’s oven trick one day!

That’s a pretty clever setup! A microwave can definitely make a hot meal quick and easy. But here’s my question—when you're out on an adventure, do you really have the space and enough power to make it work? It sounds great, but I’m curious how you manage the power situation on the go!

Here's a photo of my simple, quick to clean and put away when done with camping. It's a small 8A microwave power via an Ecoflow. I usually camp solo, so i don't need much to pleased myself. A sleeping cot in the bed inside an ARE cap is comfortable enough for me lol

That’s a pretty sweet setup! A small microwave and an Ecoflow power station sound like the perfect combo for easy meals while camping solo. It’s all about keeping things simple and comfortable, and it seems like you’ve got it down to an art! A cozy cot inside the ARE cap sounds like a great way to sleep under the stars without giving up comfort. Thanks for sharing—definitely some great ideas for a minimalist camping experience!

Nice! We never did anything fancy… We just did Hot Pockets wrapped in foil stuffed somewhere on that 4.0L. ☺ Oh the memories…..

I've heated plenty of meals on the defrost vent on a humvee. Or on the roof in the Iraq or Kuwait sun. Heats up plenty fast, sometimes too fast.
