Camping in Big Sur


This is pretty much what we usually eat on our camping trips, with variations on protein and veggies: rib-eye steaks, corn on the cob, zucchini. One thing that I did differently with the corn this time was to boil it first then finish off by grilling, which saved time and also kept the corn from burning. I also grilled up a couple of hot dog buns for our dinner rolls. We were very happy with how the food turned out. The I Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray bottle is amazing for travel.

Meatloaf



This is my first meatloaf and the reason why I started this whole blog. It's about time I take charge of cooking my own meals, and I wanted to document the successes and failures to make improvements, remind myself what I can make, and to share some tips with you out there (and your tips are welcome as well!).

I used Anny's recipe (thanks, Anny). Yum!

As you can see, we had a little fun making this meal. We call him "Meat Man". The twist: one sweat Italian sausage hidden in the middle of the loaf, although it's a tad hard to see in the photo.
