Full moon, shining stars and the magical blue waves is one of the reasons this camping trip was one of my favorites. However, there is something about camping trips that makes us hungry all the time! So i always make sure i am well prepared with healthy snacks for snacking guilt free throughout the trip :)
We left on Thursday afternoon, so for dinner my sister in law made pasta on the portable cooker and of course I made sure to bring organic brown rice spaghetti for all of us, it was so yummy!
Then it was snacking time. This time I made Matcha Coconut Bliss Balls, Chocolate Oat Chunks and Healthy Nutella! They were all so delicious, we had them along with fresh lemongrass tea brewed over Omani sumr (mesquite) firewood throughout the night. We also had some chips, I always have some "healthier" version of chips with me when we go camping so i don't feel left out :) This time i got some Kale chips, Potato chips and Vegetable chips. I bought them from Germany they are all organic and with minimal ingredients and of course no additives just how i like it :D
For breakfast the next day I had already prepared Overnight Oats and brought them with us in a cool box. We topped it with slices of bananas, pomegranates and homemade Granola. It was just perfect!!
For lunch my husband (with the help of our children) made us Qabooli, which is a traditional Dhofari dish. The chicken was boiled then marinated, wrapped in foil and baked over the firewood. Meanwhile the rice was being cooked. It was spectacular!!
We later had some more tea, opened up a watermelon and had some other fruits as well.
It was such an amazing camping trip, pictures don't do justice! The best part (other than being and spending quality time with loved ones without the busy life demands) is being prepared and having healthy options and guiltless snacks with us to really enjoy :)
P.s no camping trip is complete without a book to read :)
