10 Healthy, Fun Camp Fire Snacks

 

We love camping at Sugar Bay! The smell of burnt wood in the outdoors just before the break of dawn, the image of ash left behind after a great camp fire, silence, stars and a cool breeze rustling the fallen leaves of the trees... that sort of atmosphere is how every great adventure should end. Here at Sugar Bay we finish every camp with an epic Final Camp Fire where we share our memories and bond over delicious snacks!

Camping is great, it never gets old, but camp food often tends to become boring, especially to our ever evolving children who always want to keep up with what's Trending.

Smores have always been on the top of the list of camp fire treats and is still the winning favourite of all camp fire snacks, however, in present times, we'd like to get more creative, and have more variety yet keep our snacks as healthy as can be!

Here's a list of 10 Healthy, Fun Camp Fire Snacks:
1. Ants on a log 

 

A celery stem cut in half, peanut butter, raisins and you're good to go!

2. Fresh Fruit Salad


Chop up at least 5 different fruits into bite sized pieces and mix them together!

3. Apples with Peanut Butter Dip 
 















Cut up an apple, remove the core and dip in peaut butter. For an added sweetness add chocolate chips to the peanut butter.
4. Muesli and Dried Fruit Snack Bar
