Ziplock Bag Ideas
Print Version |
Email To A Friend
one gallon zip lock bags are very handy when packing for a camping trip. I'll plan my meals, prepare the portions in advance - including everything from scrambling my eggs (just pour them out of the bag as needed) to
measuring our pancake mix, and sealing lunch meats and various snacks, and then use the zip lock bags for everything. Not only are they much more efficient on space saving in an ice chest or camp box, but my meats get rave reviews from being marinated for a day or two
before cooking - that way I can pack ahead a bit. They're also great for keeping things dry - like cameras and film, matches,
books & magazines, etc. Another handy tip - I usually double bag my meats, potato/macaroni salads. Just in case they're too much for one seam to handle. Then if I find the need for the use of an emergency bag - like for a bathing suit or soiled laundry - I simply remove the outside layer - no digging for another box of zip lock bags.
PS: Don't forget to press or suck most of the air out of your bags - saves more room
