Rosemary Spiced Nuts
This recipe is free of gluten which is awesome for those campers with dietary restrictions, see all of our gluten free camping food.
When I am cooking with dried spices at the campsite, I often measure and mix the spices at home and just carry them in plastic containers to the campsite. But, there are other times I want to be able to bring an assortment of spices and use them creatively while cooking without a specific recipe.
It is really convenient to carry dried spices in Portable Spice Jars In A Case … they stay clean and organized in your camp kitchen!
The fresh rosemary really puts the finishing touch on this nut recipe!
Just because this recipe serves 4 – 6, doesn’t mean you can’t make it when you are preparing camping meals for two because it stores well in sealed food containers and you have more to enjoy!
