Easy Camp Recipes Kids Will Actually Eat

Ten camp recipes with five ingredients or fewer, written for kids who are hungry now and a mum who is over it.

No camp oven required for most of them. No ingredient you can't get at a country IGA. And nothing your kids will push around the plate and refuse.

Why we made it

Because 6pm at camp is the hardest half hour of the day. The kids are sunburnt-tired, someone's lost a thong, and you're standing at a two-burner stove trying to remember whether you packed the tongs.

A short list of things you can cook without thinking is worth more at that moment than any clever recipe. That's all this is.

It came out of our community — more than 30,000 Australian mums who caravan and camp, swapping the meals that actually get eaten.

While you're here

If you want the longer version with breakfast, lunch and snack ideas too, our guide to easy camping meals for families covers the lot. There's also 28 quick camp dinner wins straight from the community, and the two-ingredient naan bread the pizzas are built on.

And if you're doing the cooking in the sun, our UPF50+ shirts mean you're not reapplying sunscreen between courses.
