Camping Recipe Competition

(via Trailspace.com)

Okay, all of you campers who've been hoarding your secret recipes for "dehydrated tofu á l'orange" - now is your chance to shine!

The American Hiking Society is holding a competition for the best frontcountry and backcountry recipes - and the grand prize is a shiny, new outback oven.

The best recipes are going to be compiled into a cookbook. I have to admire AHS for finding a way to publish a whole cookbook of great camping recipes without actually paying anyone for any of the content! And the role of the author is diminished once again... sigh.

Anyway, if you're keen to be included with your recipe for "roasted banana splits" or whatever, get a move on. Entries have to be in by July 31, 2008. E-mail entries to Volunteer@AmericanHiking.org.
