The Camp & Cabin Cookbook by Laura Bashar

The Camp  Cabin Cookbook: 100 Recipes to Prepare Wherever You GoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a delightful book!! Whether you’re camping, cooking outdoors or even cooking in the comfort of your kitchen there is so much to love about this book! The book itself is well made and the photography is gorgeous! The recipes just seal the deal.

I’m a huge seafood fan, but some of my family are not, so I don’t make it as often as I’d like. As soon as I saw the Foil-Wrapped Fisherman’s Platter, I knew I had to make it. The dish did not disappoint! The cajun seasoning and andouille sausage gave it a nice kick and other than the potatoes (I should have cut them smaller), everything was done perfectly! Those of us who enjoy seafood loved it! I’m going to give my family a little time and then I’m going to try Campfire Paella. It looks amazing!!

Also on my “to cook” list is the Grilled Sausage Coil with Tarragon, Shallots and Garlic Toast. I just have to find a long sausage–not something I’ve run across here in South Dakota yet!

There are so many options, many I’d never thought of such as Spinach Feta Quiche Baked in Portabello Shells. What a great idea!! No worries about trying to clean up a quiche pan outdoors–you just eat it! Scones in a dutch oven, Grilled Cauliflower “Steaks” or even Grilled Watermelon Pizza with Arugula and Feta–someone has been thinking outside the box!

The Camp & Cabin Cookbook is a delightful book that I am thoroughly enjoying and highly recommend it. Whether cooking indoors or out (many recipes give directions for both), I’m sure you’ll find much to love in this lovely cookbook.

I received a copy of this book from Countryman Press for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
