Outdoor Gourmet : Recipes to Bring Your Love of Good Food to the Campsite, the Backyard, and Beyond

Getting in touch with nature doesn't need to mean subsisting on energy bars, canned beans, and prepackaged meals. With these easy-to-follow recipes, you can use your camp stove, fire pit, or home grill to whip up restaurant-worthy food that will satisfy any gourmand.

Toss the trail mix, leave the hot dogs at home, and plan a totally new approach to outdoor eating:

• Wake up to Bananas Foster French Toast cooked on the camp stove
• Pack a Smoked Salmon and Wasabi Aram Sandwich for an on-the-go hiking lunch
• Relax by the fire with a Savory Cheese S'mores snack
• Feast under the stars on Mustard and Rosemary Lamb Chops and Roasted Beets with Citrus Dressing
• And cook dozens more delicious recipes right at your campsite!

Outdoor Gourmet includes advice on choosing a camp stove and stocking your kitchen-away-from-home, storage strategies for fresh foods, and tips for making your new favorite camping meals in a traditional kitchen or backyard grill so you can keep vacation going all year.
