Four Day Menu Plan for One-Burner Stove Cooking
If you are going on a trip of four days or less, menu planning is a more suitable option than ration planning. The following four day plan is one example of what you can bring. View a sample shopping list, calories and recipes that coincide with this menu plan.
Recommended steps for menu planning:
- Create a meal plan for the appropriate number of days. You can split the meals up between group members to make it easier. You can find more menu plan ideas on the Backcountry Kitchen membership site.
- Create a shopping list from your menu plan. The amounts of food will vary, depending on how much calories you want to intake and how many people are going on your trip.
