We typically have used the same menu every year.
We have steak night, brat night, burger night, and then on those nights we don't want to have to actually "cook" ... we have a premade goulash pasta and another hot dish cooked ahead of time at home and frozen so it's an easy heat and eat night without any grilling needing to be done.
We are looking to shake up the menu with a new item or two for our next trip ... without having to fire up the grill.
Anyone care to share their favorite "easy to heat up" meals?
Thanks - Ball Cap

We lean to the precooked meals to limit our kitchen time.
Have fun

In the late fall we get off the water at dark and go out for dinner at a restaurant. (at that time of the year some nights all the restaurants are closed Mon/tues so we eat pasties or pizza in our room, even the lodge was closed)
And late in the fall not many bathrooms not open for use or close by out on the lakes so we ate just some Jerky, Peanuts and some home made chocolate chip cookies just enough to keep your backbone from rubbing on your belly button.

But hey, Pasties is a good idea, never thought of that one. Which inspired me to think of
"Pot Pies"

You into Mexican? Pick up a couple packs of tortillas, flour or corn, does not matter. I prefer flour. Also chorizo, pork or beef. It's easy to make your own breakfast burritos. Eggs, chorizo, and Mexican cheese. You can also add green peppers and onion. Then brown your tortillas in a skillet with oil. Add some hot sauce or sour cream, yep...I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow. Any tortillas left, be creative and make your own tacos. Kdawg
Sounds like a great breakfast but eat that, in particular with chorizo, cheese and a lot of spice, better hope there is a breeze around that boat if you got three anglers aboard.

Chicken cordon bleu, and the usual suspects have all gone on trips of ours. We spent 14 days on lotw a few years ago and the resort owners were upset with us that we never ate with them to provide reports or details. Prepping food ahead of time meant more time to fish and relax between activity periods. My dad will be 70 this year so we try to maximize our odds.

Fun thing we did on a trip - take everything you'd need to make an omlette, chop it all up ahead of time - bacon, sausage, ham, whatever vegetables (don't forget to bring eggs) All you need is a pot of boiling water and those ziplock bags you can cook in. Everybody gets a bag with their name on it, and fills it up with whatever they like. Add however many eggs (scramble them first) seal the bag and boil. You can even eat out of the bag with a plastic spoon. No dishes to wash, no mess, and no griping because so and so doesn't like tomatoes or whatever.
Never done it, but that sounds smart and delicious as H***. Way to peacefully navigate an egg bake.

We bring a corned beef up. Put in slow cooker while out fishing. Come in it’s done. Have a second night if leftovers, or makes great sandwiches in the boat for lunches.

And many times we drive by a building and every year it's a different place (business) and down the street something has been there forever. In the late 1970's we came up with an idea to make Mexican food in Eagle River for a going away party for a friend. A friends mom said she would make it for us it we got all the stuff. We drove to three stores in Eagle River then over to St. Germain and then down to Rhinelander to find Taco Shells and Taco seasoning. As far as egg's go you put one in the corn bread mix, two in the Blueberry muffin mix and a couple in the pancake batter To eat them by themself no way. Five times my grandma tried to make me scrambled eggs, I could never get them down.

Good news is I didn't get bit by any mosquitos or black flies that day. Didn't make any friends that day either...

Tried that.. Had a a nice Italian meal the night before fishing. Ate half a loaf of bread with crushed garlic, fresh parmesan, and olive oil. We're talking 3 big cloves of garlic here. Next day was fine until about 1:00 when it got up into the 90's and the wind died. Something smells burnt. Like burnt toast? No, it smells like a burnt pizza. Is that ME? Yep.

I think if you combined that evening meal with Kdawgs' chorizo sausage, mexican cheese breakfast burritos you might be able to clear an entire bay for your exclusive use.

Cornbread. m
People are still talking about your cornbread at the Cass Lake Outing. I tried to give you the nickname "Cornbread" but it didn't stick.
Al Warner was the star at that outing, he had a whole, huge ribeye roast and we cut steaks to our desired thickness. Brought a big shaker of "Cellar Dust" for seasoning, outstanding. He's an excellent camp cook, saw him make a droolworthy chicken noodle soup from scratch at a remote Yoop campout at the Mine Ponds. Best camp cook I ever met.
