Default Re:I tend toward the elegant and unexpected "camping" fare...

How 'bout some more elegant ideas? My wife is an excellent cook, and likes to do the same thing. We went to the White Mountains of NH with some friends last summer. We were in our TM, they motel'ed it. They assumed we were going to eat in restuarants, and when we suggested they come to the TM instead, it was clear they weren't expecting much from a folding camper. My wife whipped up tiny scallops (good ones in Maine!) in white wine sauce, a light green salad, and homemade crusty French bread the first night. The next night was a tremendous baked Klamath River salmon that she caught herself a month earlier in Oregon. Our friends left with much more respect for the TM. And we made them wash the dishes!
