April 10, 2010Camping Good Eats
April 8, 2010Last week we drove to Zion National Park where we met and camped with J’s parents who drove from Colorado. We had a great time hiking (the freaking scary Angels Landing hike of death…..), biking (rented a road bike….I’m hooked!), and eating (never heard of campers eating so well). For now, I’ll post some pics of our campmade good eats. We had one dinner and one breakfast at local Springdale restaurants and they were both amazing, too!
The Menu:
1st night: Homemade Tortilla Soup with tortillas, avocados, and cilantro
1st morning: Eggs scrambled with veggies & Gib’s Bagels
2nd night: Baby Back Ribs & Foil Packets with potatoes, tomatoes, mushrooms, bell pepper, ??
2nd morning: Scrambled eggs, potatoes with leftover foil packet ingredients, bagels
3rd night: Bit & Spur – the thai curry soup was amazing!
3rd morning: Cafe Soleil — everything was fresh and delicious. I had a regular coffee, green tea steamer, and tomato basil ravioli soup. Excellent customer service, as well!
And naturally, there were smores involved.
There was also an ice cream parlor in town that served Wells Blue Bunny ice cream which is made in the Ice Cream Capital of The World, – LeMars, Iowa (where J’s parents grew up). The guy who worked there was so nice. That’s a pic of my cone — cherry nut & cotton candy.
And speaking of bunnies. The big, famous one made a visit, as well. ![]()
