I might put it this way: while I try to make the majority of our food from scratch, not all of it happens. I like to have snacks for the boys in the van, we travel and hike and as well the oldest has school lunches. Sometimes it is just nice to be able to buy a box of treats [...]

There are 12 sections of [...]

Nachos on the trail? Sure! With yet another line in shelf stable packaging from Frontera, you have two choices: Cheddar Nacho and Black Bean Nacho. I found these at Cost Plus World Market, but knowing their track record, it will be in grocery stores soon enough, if not already. You can gently warm the pouch [...]
