Missing your favorite camp food right about now? Check out these easy recipes.

If you've ever eaten a meal at Camp Foley, you know that what goes in your belly also gets locked in your brain as a sweet, sweet memory. Whether it be a hearty breakfast before a morning on the lake or the dinner that keeps you going through 6th period soccer, Camp Foley meals are bound to be some of the things you miss the most when you leave. But don't worry -- we've got you covered.


  1. Breakfast Burritos
Ah, breakfast burritos. These are a Foley classic and perfect for getting your day started on a spicy note. This recipe has all the good stuff, from eggs to pico de gallo, ready to be thrown on a warm tortilla. Dress these bad boys up or down as you wish for a protein-filled breakfast on-the-go that'll keep you awake in class or at work all day long.

      2. Overnight Oats

Some of the best breakfasts at Foley are the simple ones. We love our yogurt, oatmeal, and fruit, especially when we're running off to archery first thing in the morning. Having a bit of trouble making it out the door on time even when you're not at camp? Us too! Overnight oats are a cool twist on some of those Camp Foley staples, and you can prepare them the night before. All you need is plain yogurt, rolled oats, your favorite berries, and 12 hours. Voila!

       3. Grilled Cheese
Grilled cheese and tomato soup make a magical pair, and Camp Foley does it right with mountains of the delicious sandwiches for each table as lines of campers and staff form to get their hands on a bowl of tangy-sweet goodness. You can taste it right now, can't you? Keep it classic with just the basics or check out the link for some fun and easy ways to make it special.
       4. Mexican Lasagna

There's no doubt that Foley kids all went home begging for mom and dad to whip this one up. Mexican lasagna is a camper favorite that's just full of flavor and great texture. The good news: it's easier to make than it looks! And, like many of the recipes on this list, it's something you can adjust to your personal taste with no trouble.

       5. Skillet Brownies

You were hoping for this one, weren't you? Skillet brownies are tree house favorites, especially when the nights get a little chilly. We won't be using an open fire for this recipe, but it's just as quick and easy to customize it to your chocolaty preference. Dig in -- no plates allowed!
