Camping Headlamp: Essential if you get to your site late and have to set up your tent in the fading light and/or cook dinner in the dark. Also handy if you want to read in your tent at night or if you have to get up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, chase away a raccoon or something like that. Have fun!

PB&J Tortilla Rolls: Ultimate easy camping lunch/breakfast/snack. Quick to make and even quicker to eat :,)

also runner up is hummus/cheese/veggie tortilla wrap. For some reason super simple food always tastes the best when you’re exhausted and dirty! Lol

Kelly P · Answer

pie irons: The most perfect crispy gooey grilled cheese sandwiches. Pizza pops. Pilsbury croissant dough with cherry or jam filling to make a pop tart/danish/pastry thingy. Ultimate tool for camping comfort food.

Patagonia Black Hole Duffel: I love this bag for road trips and car camping. It even comes with backpack straps so you can wear it as a backpack if needed. I got mine on super sale at the Patagonia store.
