GOURMET S'MORES FOR YOUR NEXT CAMPFIRE - Healthy Family Living in Metro Vancouver

Campfires, s'mores & summer... the making of amazing memories! This time honoured summer tradition has everything a good story needs... campfire sounds, a small element of danger, anticipation and a great ending.

There is something so satisfying about achieving just the right level of toasting on your marshmallow and then carefully slipping it off the hot stick and on to the waiting cookie. Then smooshing the top cookie on top and reminding yourself for the hundredth time not to burn you tongue and doing it anyway. Check out our 5 day camping menu for other easy camping ideas.
