In days gone by, Spam and Mac was a standard backpacking menu item. Recently it was added to our “easy and clean” one pot camping menus. (purists won’t pack Spam, but it is ok by me)

The Kraft Shells and Cheese are considered by me to be better than the old stand by in the blue box. To make it one pot, the uncooked spam is added to the cooked Shells and Cheese and gently heated .

There is a new Spam with less salt that is very good. There is also Turkey Spam that is also good in the same mix. We were on the road for two months last year and this was good and easy after a 400 mile day

Here’s a tip for health, bert. When you travel, keep plenty of frozen peas on hand (or canned if you don’t have a fridge in your camper) and add them to all casseroles and as an addition to omletes. This adds much needed folate to the diet of we older types AND it is a great ‘regulator’ for bowels when on the road extensively. I use lots of canned Allen green beans in casseroles and crockpot recipes, but the frozen peas are the best way to go.
