Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Any combination of dried fruit and nuts can be used to make this oatmeal. If you're out picking berries, add those, too!
  • tip 2
    Pack single-serve coffee bags, tea bags and cocoa mixes for instant camper's drinks. The same hot water can be used to prepare all the beverages.
