The next time you go camping, pack some eggs and bacon for breakfast. Sure, you could bring a skillet, but grab some brown paper bags instead—they get the job done just as quickly, and you can make breakfast for everyone on the trip at once.

This tip uses the same basic principle we used when we fried an egg with a sheet of paper and some binder clips—namely that paper, when properly oiled, won't catch fire at controlled temperatures. Line the bottom of the paper bag (and up the sides a little) with strips of bacon, then crack the eggs into the little bacon boat you'll have going on at the bottom of the bag. Make as many bags as you like, then pop them over the camp stove or grill on a grate and wait.

Lakeland Gear says you'll know the food's done when the grease from the bacon soaks up the sides of the bag about halfway. Pass out the bags, grab a fork, and enjoy. It's a fun campfire (or backyard grill!) trick that requires little prep time.
