Mac and Cheese Made for Camping

Get ready for a delicious camping adventure with the ultimate mac and cheese recipe! Our mac & cheese recipe can be prepared ahead of time; stored in the refrigerator; and then enjoyed warmed up over the fire or camping stove. Bring your favourite toppings and enjoy!





Ingredients

3 pinsa flatbreads

Olive oil

4-6 slices mortadella

1x small ball burrata

1-2 tbsp chopped pistachios

1x small leek, chopped 

1 tbsp olive oil

2 small preserved lemons, minced

5-6 white anchovies

¼ cup olive tapenade

1 tbsp olive oil

4-5 pieces rapini

½ cup ricotta

Zest of one lemon


Servings: 4-6

Preparation: 10 minutes

Total Time: 30 Minutes

Kitchen Equipment: large pot, lasagna-sized aluminum pan


Instructions: 

  1. Cook the noodles, drain and set aside.
  2. Add the milk to the pot and warm on medium heat for about 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk in the flour until no lumps remain and cook for another minute.
  4. Add 2 ½ cups grated cheddar cheese, 1 ½ cups grated gruyere cheese, garlic powder, mustard and dash of hot sauce and stir until smooth
  5. Cook 2-3 more minutes on low and then remove from heat, adjust seasoning (generous pinch of salt & pepper) and then stir in noodles.
  6. Assemble the finished mac & cheese to take camping! Spoon the mac & cheese into a lasagna-sized aluminum pan and top with 1 cup more of shredded cheese. Let fully cool and then cover tightly with a lid or aluminum foil. Store in the fridge until ready to take on the road - make sure to keep cool in a cooler or in a fridge for up to 2 days.
  7. Reheat, covered, over a fire or cooktop, about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted on top and mac & cheese is warmed through. Top with your favourite toppings like hot sauce, truffle ketchup, hot peppers, toasted breadcrumbs or extra cheese and enjoy!
