One of the most stressful things about going on an RV trip can be deciding what to feed your family. These 30 easy RV meals will get you started with meal planning, so you can confidently hit the road.

Have you ever gone on an RV trip or camping and felt like you spent most of your time preparing the food, cleaning up after eating the food and generally just thinking about food? Yeah, me too. I’ve been there and while I have no problem thinking about food the majority of my time (lol) I don’t want to spend my entire vacation preparing meals.

During our year and a half of full-time travel, we got into a great rhythm when it came to meals. Everyone was responsible for their own breakfast and lunch and dinner was either prepared by me or if we were in an area with a great local restaurant, we’d sometimes go out to eat.

I did a lot of cooking in our RV and learned a trick or two when it comes to preparing meals in a tiny kitchen. You can read a few of my tips here. 

A few things I kept in mind when meal planning while RVing was, keep it simple, the Instant Pot was my best friend, foil packet meals were also my best friend and not to plan any meals with exotic ingredients. Why? Because sometimes you find yourself in the mountains, shopping at an itty bitty grocery store and there’s a good chance they won’t have chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.

I hope the following 30 easy RV meals will help you with your meal planning. Oh, and some of these work well as camping meals too.
