Recipe Steps
The scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage and bacon start this recipe in the direction of breakfast but the exciting Greek sauce and veggies take it into the easy camping lunches realm. I guess you can call it a “camping brunch” and move on with your adventures!
Step 1. Make the sauce.
You will make the sauce by mixing the yogurt, shredded cucumber, garlic, feta cheese, salt and pepper.
Camp Cooking Tip: You can prepare this sauce right before you are ready to eat this yummy Greek Pita Sandwiches Camping Breakfast Recipe … OR … you can prepare the sauce up to a few days in advance and just refrigerate it until you are ready to use it.
I like transporting my pre-mixed ingredients in food storage containers with tight fitting lids.
Step 2. Prepare the sandwich toppings.
The pita sandwich toppings are what really turn this camping breakfast sandwich into more of a brunch sandwich. You will be chopping a tomato and onion. Then you will peel, seed and chop a cucumber.
Camp Cooking Tip: This is another portion of this scrumptious sandwich camping breakfast recipe that you can prep-ahead and refrigerate until you are ready to eat.
Step 3. Cook the meat.
This is a “one pan” camping breakfast meal. You need to only dirty one non-stick skillet to do all of the cooking for this Greek Pita Sandwiches Camping Breakfast Recipe.
You will use the skillet to cook the bacon and sausage first.
Camp Cooking Tip: If you prefer to cook this Greek Pita Sandwiches Camping Breakfast Recipe over a campfire rather than a camp stove or RV stove … no problem!
Just use a cast iron skillet instead of a non-stick skillet and continue with the recipe.

Step 4. Toast the pitas.
You will reserve the grease from the bacon and sausage, leaving a thin coating in the pan to toast the pitas on both sides.
Step 5. Scramble the eggs.
Next, you will beat the eggs and then cook them scrambled style until they are cooked through.
Camp Cooking Tip: Be sure to have all of your other ingredients ready because as soon as the eggs are finished cooking, you will want to build your sandwiches.
You really want the eggs to be hot as you eat this delicious camping breakfast sandwich!
Step 6. Build the pita sandwiches.
The final step is to layer all of the ingredients to create your breakfast pita sandwiches.
As I mentioned earlier, this camping breakfast recipe makes filling sandwiches that will satisfy your appetite until dinner!
You may want to serve this hand-held breakfast sandwich with a fork too!
