Couscous Beats Rice

As they’re the body’s primary energy source, everyone needs some carbs while out in the woods. However, cooking rice while camping usually proves to be quite a challenge. After all, it requires time, attention, and just the right amount of heat. So here’s a simple camping hack: switch it out with couscous. This lesser-known cereal is food for cooking on the go.

To make couscous, you just need boiling water, nothing else. In only five minutes and one or two stirs, you’ll have a practical, energizing food that everyone in the family can enjoy. Also, quite a little couscous goes a long way, so you’ll also save room while packing!
