Spring is in the air, and that means it’s time to skip the coffee and reach for a refreshing smoothie instead. The milkshake’s healthier cousin, smoothies are a great way of getting all those fruits and veggies into your diet when you don’t find yourself making time to eat them.

Smoothies are great as a between-meal snack, or as a surprisingly filling breakfast before you start work. They’re nutritious, cheap, easy to make and most importantly, delicious!

I know I know, everyone eats oatmeal when they’re backpacking, less when they’re car camping, but at some point or another someone is going to cook oatmeal. Why? Because it’s nutritious and delicious, not to mention drop dead easy. However, eating oatmeal the same way all the time is tedious, and in order to boost its mmmm factor and caloric intake I’ve made some additions. There is no ahead-of-time prep for this meal before leaving on your trip and although it takes slightly more time than making plain old oats by themselves, I hope you enjoy the process of cooking as much as you will the eating.

Hang on to your nuts!

You can add this handy little item to your gear and you won’t even notice the difference. It packs light, takes up very little room, and if you don’t need it, well then just eat it. So what kind of nuts are we talking about? Almonds.
