Main Dishes

Dehydrated refried black beans

Mexican food is my ultimate comfort food, especially when camping, and these dehydrated refried black beans totally make my day. Forget that homogenous store-bought gloop that you can buy in a tin. With a dehydrator, you can make sensational dehydrated refried black beans to bring on your backpacking trips. Tent tacos, here we come… This is …

Red Lentil Dal - Dehydrated Backpacking Recipe

Red Lentil Dhal

This red lentil dhal is one of my favourite recipes of all time and one of the first dishes I turned into a dehydrated backpacking meal. I relish the flavours and aromas of Indian food, wherever I am, but especially out in the wild after a long day’s trek. The spices in this red lentil …

Campstove shrimp and grits (prawns and polenta)

Campstove Shrimp and Grits

Shrimp and grits is a dish that hails from America’s “low country”. It’s filling, delicious, wholesome, and easy to make with a camp stove. This is perfect comfort food after a long day’s hike when all you want is something hot, tasty and substantial. I first discovered shrimp and grits during a summer I spent …

Tarka Dhal

Indian dhals are a great dehydrator option for wild camping meals. They dehydrate well, pack down nicely, and rehydrate very quickly at camp. Whenever I make dhal, I make a huge batch – some I freeze for lunch leftovers or quick meals, the rest I dehydrate for my next adventure. This Tarka Dhal is super …

In case you’re not already saving your parmesan rinds, now is the time to start! When added to soups or stews, parmesan rinds elevate the flavour – like …

Sweet potato black bean campfire chilli

Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chilli

Veggie chilli has to be one of my all time favourite camping meals and I’m constantly inventing new variations. This sweet potato and black bean chilli is inspired by my friend Abby who cooked this up after a very cold day spent cross country skiing in Wisconsin. There is something so enormously satisfying about a …

Busy times at ESW HQ restocking after a busy Chris Busy times at ESW HQ restocking after a busy Christmas. I was accidentally sent some red chillies for my Trailblazer Hot Sauce. I could have sent then back but they looked so good I decided to keep them. Currently thinking I’ll smoke them with hickory, but who knows! … there could be a special edition Trailblazer coming soon!
Escape to a corner of our neighbourhood that actua Escape to a corner of our neighbourhood that actually has some hills! An invigorating 7-ish miles from Bisely with better than expected weather, two happy hounds, great views, hidden gems, and predictably much mud! Unparalleled conversation provided by the always entertaining @simasunflower, fellow female foodie entrepreneur, dog lover, strong person, and all around badass.

Campervan cooking. First meals! Appreciating that Campervan cooking. First meals! Appreciating that a little bit of convenience can go a long way while still enabling great food and fresh ingredients. Prep-prepped #barbacoa made for killer campervan tacos with shredded cabbage, avocado, and our house-made hot sauce, salsa macha, and pickles (all in the ESW shop). Lunches were made easy with some minestrone I cooked and dehydrated at home. We also used some of @desihealthycurry's curry kits to make a deeelish fish stew and cauliflower curry on our first night. All made on the #jetboil - no kitchen installed just yet. Good times! More tales of our first night out on the blog (link in profile).⠀

Been a while since I’ve posted a #sourdough loaf Been a while since I’ve posted a #sourdough loaf so here’s a shot of this week’s bake (cuz, you know, #lockdownbaking and all!). I’ve been taking some downtime this January to recover from Christmas (and other things 🦠) but am slowly ramping things back up. One thing never stops, though, and that’s my happy sourdough starter, fed with a blend of organic rye and white flours from @shiptonmill.  If you’re wanting to have a go at sourdough yourself, you can buy sourdough starter and eBook over in the shop (the eBook is only £3 and the starter comes with a free copy so why not). I’m so chuffed by all the folks out there who’ve been having success with my instructions, focused on baking in a bog standard home oven. Head over to shop.eatsleepwild.com or click the link in my bio and click on Fermented Foods under Basecamp Essentials. Happy baking!
