Yellow Sands Riverside Brunch

You’re about to see how one makes the fastest brunch ever while camping. We recently went camping at Yellow Sands for a second time – this time at the riverside (more on this in a future post). After taking a stroll along the river and sea, we returned to our camp site very hungry.

We dug through our camping boxes and fridge to see what was available to make a quick brunch. It’s always good to have some canned food when you go camping because this will satisfy any hungry camper in no time!

Put it on the table:

So, this is a dish we made from what we had at our disposal and from now on it will be known as ‘Yellow Sands Riverside Brunch’.

Ingredients

1 can (410g) baked beans in tomato sauce

1 can (300g) corned meat/bully beef, diced

250g diced bacon

1 potato, diced and cooked

1 onion, diced

olive oil

salt & pepper

Peel the potato and cut it into cubes. Then cook it until slightly soft. Drain and set aside.

Things happen fast from here! Heat a little olive oil in a pan and fry the onions until soft.

Fry the onion

When the onion is soft, add the diced bacon and fry until the bacon begins to brown.

Add the diced bacon

The corned meat is next; stir it gently in and let it cook for a minute. Then add the boiled potato.

Finally, it’s time for the can of baked beans in tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper and stir gently. Give the dish about 2 minutes to warm up.

It may be hard to believe, but this was one of the tastiest brunches ever!

Between the two of us we emptied the pan. All that was left to do was to make a cup of coffee/tea and sit back in our camping chairs while we enjoyed the view of the river.
