The bears finished up the Bear Picnic Adventure and the bears in attendance were no longer growling with hunger. After a quick review of what was learned last week, the different food groups and how to make healthy choices last week, the scouts used the ingredients they selected to create a meal and snack that they could enjoy on a camping trip. They put together foil packs, containing steak, brown rice, and various veggies and while they were waiting for those to cook they created a delicious trail mix that will keep them fueled on hikes and they finished it up by making something a camping just possibly cannot be a camping trip without enjoying – smores.
As the different items were prepared, the scouts learned about the importance of cleanliness, proper hygiene when cooking, safety when cooking and more. After tasting their foil packs and trail mix, scouts were asked to share their meals at home. If they liked their meal, they were asked to write it down as a recipe to bring in next week. If they didn’t like it, they were asked to write down a variation that either added or removed something which they felt improved their their recipe.
