Camp Tuna & Rice

When you’re tired, hungry, and cooking on a single burner at the campsite, this is your best friend.

Canned tuna, quick-cooking brown rice, dried onion, and green pepper flakes all go into one skillet with boiling water.

Cover it, let it simmer for 20 minutes, and dinner is done.

It’s the kind of meal that weighs almost nothing in your pack, needs zero refrigeration, and still delivers solid protein and whole grains when you need them most.

Kitchen Tips

• Use tuna packed in oil for extra flavor and calories on the trail. Every bit of energy counts after a long hike.
• Pack the dry ingredients together in a single ziplock bag at home so all you need to grab at camp is the tuna cans and your water.
• Squeeze in some hot sauce or soy sauce packets from your stash. A little seasoning boost goes a long way out there.
