Recipes From The Wild
Think you need a big, fancy kitchen to cook up delicious dishes? Think again. After spending over a decade cutting her teeth in New
York City
as a recipe
developer,
culinary
producer,
private chef, and
more, Ulster
County native
Lee Kalpakis
returned to the Catskills to live a quieter life. From the retro RV camper she lived in while her house was being built deep
in the woods, Kalpakis crafted fresh, easy-to- prepare meals that she cooked over open fire. Read on for three recipes from her book OUT THERE. A Camper Cookbook, which debuted this past April.
