Eggs and Hashbrowns

What kind of camping we're doing, depends on if we plan on having eggs and/or eggs with hashbrowns. On our trips to multiples sites, with a lot of hikes planned, we tend to only have eggs 1-2 days. Eggs and the cleanup isn't a fast breakfast, so we don't plan it on days we need early starts.

We love cooking eggs with or without hashbrowns when we're staying several days at a state park. On those trips it's not as important to leave to explore first thing in the morning. When Marcus and I swim in the Point to la Pointe swim, we love coming back to camp and having a large brunch.

We do find that having eggs and hashbrowns makes it so we aren't that hungry for lunch, and we can wait to eat lunch later, or just rely on snacks.

Eggs and Hashbrowns

Hashbrowns we've used two different kinds
- Refrigerated Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns
  - These have to go in the cooler, so that comes into play
  - All you have to do is open the bag and put them on the grill/pan
- Idaho Spuds Hashbrown Potatoes
  - These are dried and come in cartons
  - You need to boil water and add it to the carton before adding them to the grill/pan
Eggs
- We have a plastic egg container to hold the eggs. The container is nice because it prevents eggs from breaking. The only downside is that you need to store the container after it's empty.
Vegetables
- We make sure to bring vegetables that can go in several meals. Bell peppers, onions, tomatoes are top ones as we can use these in several meals as well as eggs.
Cheese
- We usually bring cheddar cheese as we can use it for eggs, tacos, sandwiches and with crackers.
Cast iron pan, or flat top grill. If it's our family, we just bring our two burner stove and cook the eggs in the cast iron pan. If we're going with another family, we bring our flat top grill. It's so much faster to cook for large groups on the flat top grill. Plus it's quicker to clean.
