You can also use the brown sugar to sweeten your morning tea or coffee.

3. Put sliced mozzarella (or other soft meltable cheese) onto half the tortilla.
4. Fold the other half on top and flip once cheese starts to soften.

You can also add diced ham into the quesadilla. If you want a really filling meal then dip your sliced quesadilla into your hot soup.
Pasta Dinner
1. Boil and cook your pasta.
2. Drain pasta.
3. Mix in pasta sauce to evenly coat the cooked pasta.
4. Serve pasta with shredded parmesan.
5. Optional: Add diced ham.
Freshly grated parmesan will taste the best but pre-grated parmesan, such as Kraft, will store well without being refrigerated.
Fruit Salad
1. Slice apples, orange slices, and sliced peaches.
Tortilla Pizza
1. Heat up a pan over fire, low heat.
2. Place tortilla in pan.
3. Spread a thin amount of pasta sauce on the tortilla.

This recipe will quench your craving for pizza, even when you’re in the middle of nowhere.
Wrap

Cucumbers are a hardy vegetable and keep well for long periods of time.

Tim and Pam met in college and two of the things they had is common was their love of travel and saving money. Although they were on a tight budget, they managed to explore the world for 6 months last year and achieve their honeymoon goal. One of the many ways they saved money on the road was to cook their own meals wherever they went. They learned to make simple recipes with whatever they could get their hands on. These tips plus many more can now be found on their ever-growing blog. They love all things free and want to share their knowledge with other like-minded people. thriftytrailsinfo@gmail.com
