Your camper makes comfortable and safe travels possible, and you’ve probably got a lot of things you love about it. One thing that might be more difficult to do in a camper is cook, because the kitchen is smaller and more limited than that of your standard house or apartment. However, if you want to avoid living on fast food, you’ll need to master the nuances of preparing food in your camper’s kitchen, and we’ve got some tips that could help you.

1. Use a Grill

Cooking outside your camper can keep your kitchen cooler and it allows you to cook a lot of food quickly. Use this to your advantage by cooking extra chicken breasts or cuts of meat that you can later put in a casserole, pasta salad, or sandwich.

2. Try a Slow Cooker

The slow cooker is a great invention because it lets you prepare hot meals quickly and easily, with very little prep time. You can put in a pot roast or some chicken breasts or a chili recipe in the morning, go on your hike, then return in the evening for a warm, tasty dinner, and all you’ll need to add is some bread and a side salad.

3. Clean As You Cook

Because your space in your camper is so limited, it’s a good idea to tidy up and put things away while you’re in the process of cooking. This saves you the headache of having to deal with a big mess later, while also freeing up some valuable counter space. Rinse your cutting boards and knives, put ingredients back in the cabinet or fridge, and set dishes aside to soak to give yourself some more room.
