There are many ways to enjoy eggs while backpacking. Whether you’re traveling for a few days or a few weeks, eggs are an excellent and versatile option for a hearty meal on the trail.
One of the best ways to enjoy eggs while backpacking is by making an omelette or scramble. This can be done using dehydrated ingredients such as veggies, cheese, and pre-cooked meats.
Simply add hot water to rehydrate the ingredients and then mix in the beaten eggs. Cook over a low flame for a few minutes until everything is cooked through and enjoy!
Another great way to eat eggs on the trail is by making boiled eggs. Boiled eggs are easy to make over a campfire or stove and they make an excellent addition to any meal. For added flavor, consider adding herbs or spices before boiling them.
If you’re looking for something even easier, try dehydrating your own egg mix at home before your trip. Simply beat together some eggs with milk, cheese, veggies and/or meats, spread it into thin layers on parchment paper and dehydrate in an oven set at its lowest temperature.
Once completely dry, break them up into small pieces and store in an airtight container for easy transport. To rehydrate the egg mix on the trail simply add hot water and let sit for 5-10 minutes before cooking over low heat.
Fried Eggs
Fried eggs are another tasty way to enjoy eggs while backpacking – just be sure to use plenty of oil so that they don’t stick! You can also use pre-cooked bacon grease or butter if you have it on hand.
Conclusion
Eggs make a great addition to any backpacking trip whether it’s omelettes, scrambles, boiled eggs or fried eggs – there are plenty of ways to enjoy them! With some simple pre-planning you can easily bring along some of your favorite ingredients to create delicious meals on the trail.
