I of late returned from a road trip around the Southwest and the Rockies , two week spent call house in Nevada , staying in an Earthship in New Mexico , attending a marriage in Colorado , and touring internal parks in Utah . It was part joy , part body of work . ( Though when your workispleasure , it arrive at a photographically gorgeous trip like that so reverend . )
Along the way , we encamp and fake in a variety of kitchens both indoors and out , work up crackling fires beside high alpine lake , and spend happy minute on a sunny riverbank . It was a sport - filled journey of good food in the great open , and I ’m ecstatic to lastly deal the word with you : I ’m writing a newfangled book !
It ’s a cookbook aimed at camping bus , adventurer , and twenty-four hours tripper , or people who merely love to cook outside , over a fervour , or on a grill . If your favorite kitchen implement include cast Fe and skewer , if you like meal with minimal clean and jerk - up , and if you think food just tastes better with a bit of char , then this Word of God is call your name .
I ’m act upon with the okay folks at Voyageur Press again and it ’s slated for dismissal in Summer 2017 . While it still sound eon away , I ’ve been waistline - deep in recipe exploitation for the past couple of month , and Will ( who photographed my first Holy Writ , The CSA Cookbook ) is impart his talents ( as well as his taste buds ) to the new form of address .
This will not be another camping cookbook fill with canned chili and live cad , or sure-enough standbys from your Scout days . At the same time , it wo n’t discourage tiro camp Captain Cook with unknown constituent and elaborate measure . It ’s truly a reflexion of how Will and I fake in the open , with recipe that follow the season and meals full of fresh fruits and vegetables ( as well as boozy concoctions to keep company them ) .
We had a slow start to the book ( because … oh , you sleep with , Ihad a babyin the center of it all ) but things are cook along this summer and I ’m so aroused to see the holograph take form . Our party boss is ensure we stay on track ( my dad calls her Baby Boss ! ) and I ’ll be sharing more update in the months ahead .
In the lag , I would love to listen about your favorite camping traditions or meals ! Do you have a go - to destination every summer , or a cherished memory spent in a collapsible shelter , around a fire , or in the woodwind instrument ? What inspires you to get outside ?
