Choose campsite and right tent

Have a good day while camping with family during school holiday.

You have decided to go camping this holiday season. You have selected the location. It is finally time to choose a site. There are several things you should put into consideration when selecting a campsite.

Only set your camp on ground that is both level and dry. The last thing you want is to find your self rolling out from your tent in the middle of the night. This is likely to happen if your tent is set on a sloppy ground.

Choose an area with sufficient shade. Unless your aim is to get sun burn when relaxing during the day with your family members of friends at the camp site, this is important.

Ensure there is a source of water close by, unless you fancy the idea of carrying heavy water containers over a long distance. You will require water for cooking, cleaning and most importantly drinking.

Choose a camping area with a clearing where you can set up a cooking area. You should never cook inside the tent. The cooking area should be located far from the tents as well as bushes and trees. This is because they may catch fire.

It goes without saying, that you will require a tent. Tents are available in a variety of sizes and shapes. Since you will have to carry the tent, purchase one that is light in weight. However, do not compromise on its durability or strength. There are several other factors you ought to consider when choosing tents.

Strength The tent should have heavy-duty zippers, seams that have been sewn on both sides, poles that are sturdy and well secured grommets. You do not want your tent to fail you when it is most important. For instance when it is raining or when strong winds are blowing. Consider purchasing a vestibule. It provides space where you can take off your wet clothes before entering into the tent.

Space Your tent should be large enough for you and your family members to sleep in. It should also be big enough for you to store your camping gear. Always have a look at different tents before purchasing one. You do not have to purchase the tents. There are numerous companies and stores from where you may hire the tents.

You are likely to encounter such pests as mosquitoes and flies during your camping expedition. Be sure to carry repellants so as to keep them at bay.

Leave your campsite with 3 thing

Many activities that can be done during holiday or weekend with family.

Camping is one of the most fun and relaxing activities you can do. It brings you closer to nature and allows you to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. But once your camping bliss nears the end and it is time to pack up and go home, you need to understand how to break camp without ruining the camping experience for the next group.

Although breaking camp does not have to be difficult, there are some things that should always be done before you head home and leave the campsite.

1. Pick Up The Trash - There is nothing worse than arriving at a campsite that is full of trash left by the previous campers. Although it is never "fun" to pick up trash, you should always take the time to do it. Try not to leave a trace that you were even at the campsite. It is the polite thing to do.

2. Put The Campfire Out - Making sure the campfire is out is one of the most important things you can do before you leave the campsite. Forest fires are serious and you don't want to have to live with that burden on your conscience. Use the excess water from your cooler or find another water source, but just make sure that the fire has been completely extinguished before you leave.

3. Do A Final Walk Around - It only takes a few minutes, but it can save you many hours if you have to make another trip back to the campground because you left something behind. Simply look around after you have packed up everything and make sure there is nothing that you may have forgotten to pack.

Camping can be a fun and memorable experience. Don't spoil it by forgetting to do these simple tasks before you head back to civilization. Keep your campsite a clean and desirable destination for all of your fellow campers!

4 Man Tent - How to Sleep Comfortably

Anyone who has ever purchased a 4 man tent knows that it isn't always comfortable trying to sleep 4 people in them. It's a really cramped fit in some cases. Usually the first person to fall asleep in the tent, is the one who is the most well rested by morning. If you happen to miss being the first camper to sleep, here are some tips to help you get a restful night's sleep.

If you haven't purchased a tent yet, then you're at an advantage, because you can shop around, and compare the square footage of the tents. When considering tents, you also want to make account for the ceiling or height of the roof. Don't just look at the center peak height, also look at the height from the sides of the tent.

Many first time campers complain about the space after they've purchased a 4 man tent. They report that the four man tent rarely comfortably sleeps four people. So my advice is use the four man tent for two or three campers if you're hiking, and use it for four people if you're traveling to the campsite by car.

If it is a car camping trip, then advise everyone to leave their supplies and gear inside the car. Only allow sleeping mats, sleeping bags, and inflatable mattresses inside the tent to make use of all the space efficiently.

If you're on a backpacking, or hiking trip, then it would be moderately uncomfortable trying to get 4 people inside the tent, with all the food and gear. I've read countless reviews, of travelers complaining about this very issue. A lot of readers see that a tent may have a center height of 4 or 5 feet, and feel this adequate for their needs. They don't take into consideration that the sides slope, and the corners of the tents basically are unusable, which really lowers the useable square footage of the floor.

If you're on car camping trip, you can fit four people inside, but you have to be strategic. The way you align your bodies inside the tent, will make all the difference. Angle your bodies starting with all four heads in one corner. Spread out like a pyramid from the one corner, adjusting your bodies to fit. Everyone's head should be facing the same direction. Adjust bodies according to height, and everyone should have enough space.

About GPS and GPS Accuracy

What is GPS?

The Global Positioning System is a network of 27 (24 in operation and three extras in case one fails) satellites in six different orbital paths. A GPS unit measures the speed of each satellite and compares it relative to your location. Once it has established contact, the device reads out the altitude, longitude and latitude. The unit keeps taking measurements and averages them constantly, which means that as time passes the device determines a more accurate position. A GPS device must acquire at least three satellites to determine a two-dimensional reading; four satellites are required for a 3D reading; and the accuracy grows as more satellites are acquired. GPS satellite signal are notoriously weak, and obstructions like dense tree cover and tunnels can impede the signals. GPS works anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day. There are no subscription fees or setup charges to use GPS.

How accurate is GPS?

Today's GPS receivers are extremely accurate, thanks to their parallel multi-channel design. 12 parallel channel receivers are quick to lock onto satellites when first turned on and they maintain strong locks, even in dense foliage or urban settings with tall buildings. Certain atmospheric factors and other sources of error can affect the accuracy of GPS receivers. Most GPS receivers are accurate to within 15 meters on average.

Newer GPS receivers with WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) capability can improve accuracy to less than three meters on average. No additional equipment or fees are required to take advantage of WAAS. Users can also get better accuracy with Differential GPS (DGPS), which corrects GPS signals to within an average of three to five meters. The U.S. Coast Guard operates the most common DGPS correction service. This system consists of a network of towers that receive GPS signals and transmit a corrected signal by beacon transmitters. In order to get the corrected signal, users must have a differential beacon receiver and beacon antenna in addition to their GPS.

Multi Fuel Camping Stoves

What are multi fuel camping stoves and why is it important to have? This is a very good question and it all depends on what your requirements are. Seasoned campers and their camping family will understand their needs for a very good camping stove. Camping stoves come in several different variations, especially with the types of fuel source. Most often the traditional fuel source will be propane. While others can use unleaded gas, wood, or even wax fuel. The best way to ensure that you have the correct stove is to review the rules and regulations for the location of your camping trip. Different camping parks have their own requirements regarding what kind of stove you are allowed to use.

Multi fuel camping stoves are important if you travel abroad to other countries. Some countries do not have unleaded gas to use. While other countries or parks will not allow the use of propane gas for safety considerations. Thus a good multi fueled camping stoves can be essential for you. This way you can be very versatile and not have to buy different kind of camping stove for every different camping trip.

There are many things to consider when you purchase your multi fuel camping stoves. Most camping stove should be very easy to set up and take up little space. Ensure that your stove is very stable and avoid anyone that tends wobble because this can be a safety concern. Try to get good reviews on a camping stove. Look for stoves that are dependable, strong, light, compact, and easy to clean.

A very good multi fuel camping stoves are made by Coleman. Coleman is one of the largest camping goods manufacturers. They have camping products from sleeping bags to lanterns. Anything that you need to for camping Coleman can provide. One of their great multi fuel product is the Coleman 2 Burner Multi Fuel Premium Compact Liquid Fuel Stove. This stove is a very reliable liquid fuel and propane camping stove. Use it while you stay in a tent or just while you cook under the stars. This two burner multi fuel camping stove will be perfect for your next camping trip. One tank of any liquid fuel can give you roughly 2 hours of cooking time with both burners on at the highest settings.

Finding Cheaper Camping Accessories

This article is all about how you can find cheaper gadgets, kit and camping accessories. But we'll begin by thinking about whether cheap is always best. Should you really buy the cheapest product, even if you suspect that it is not of a high quality?

It's an interesting issue and one that you may have given some consideration in the past. The problem with buying cheap products can be that they are likely to break quickly, or that they may simply not be up to the job. This can be frustrating and can also mean that you end up making a false economy.

As a result of these concerns, we feel that the key should be to buy quality camping accessories at the lowest possible prices. So don't just buy the cheapest product that you can find - make sure that it's going to be up to the job.

Fortunately, you won't have to leave things to chance. The internet provides a wealth of information on a wide range of products. Indeed, you'll be able to read reviews of specific items and individual stores, ensuring that you know whether you are buying something of the quality that you require.

But should you be buying online in the first place? Wouldn't you be better to use a traditional camping store? While this could be a better option in some circumstances, we believe that the best deals are usually to be found online.

Internet retailers are generally able to keep their prices low as a result of the fact that they have lower overheads. That's because they don't have to maintain expensive premises or have lots of sales staff.

It may not always be the case that the cheapest items will be found online, but they probably will be available 9 times out of 10. Luckily, shopping online is often more convenient too.

If you're looking to find camping accessories at low prices then it makes sense to shop online. Make sure that you're buying good quality products though - you don't want to be having to replace poor quality products.

How to Waterproof a Tent

Tent without waterproof based will give big trouble during raining.

Most tents are waterproofed when you buy them, at least the good ones. This doesn't mean that they will stay that way, though. Over time tents will start to degrade and the chemicals that prevented them from leaking water will start to lose their potency. In the event that this occurs it is important that you familiarize yourself with the process of renewing the waterproof seal on your tent.

There are chemicals that you can buy that replicate the affect of waterproofing that your tent had when it was brand new. Some waterproofing kits are solvent-based, while others are water-based applications. Naturally, anytime you work with chemicals, there are some precautions that you need to observe before you begin to waterproof your tent.

The first thing that you need to do is read the directions that come with a tent waterproofing kit. It's important to read the directions thoroughly before starting, to ensure that you are applying the chemicals to the best of your abilities and in the way that is laid out by the manufacturer.
If the instructions tell you that you need to apply the chemicals to your tent in an area that has no shortage of ventilation, then you would do well to heed this warning. Apply tent waterproofing outside if possible, and if not, wear a chemical respirator to protect yourself from noxious fumes.

Before spending money on a kit, determine whether or not you actually need to do any sort of waterproofing. There is a chance that you have purchased a commercial grade tent that never needs to be waterproofed again. It may in fact be that durable. If you try waterproof something like this you may just find that you hurt the integrity of the tent more than you actually help it. Canvas tents often don't require waterproofing, as the cotton material proves to hold up well without any treatment.

Once you've decided that your tent needs waterproofing, you need to pay particular attention to the seams of the tent, the most likely place to suffer from wear and tear, allowing water to creep in. Use the waterproofing sealer liberally and don't miss an inch. You may also need to coat the rain fly. In general, the easiest way to make sure you get every inch of the tent coated in waterproofing is to set it up before you start. Not only will you get every spot, but the coating will be more even.

So for future reference, for the well being and happiness of both you and your family, check to see if the tents you use need to be water proofed once again. It's smart to make waterproofing and repair an annual tradition.

7 Tips on Camping and Hiking

One of the least expensive but most exciting types of vacation is a camping and hiking trip. It's the type of vacation that all family members can enjoy. And it's also such a great way to connect with nature.

The cost to have a hiking and camping trip is quite low compared to other types of vacation. The basic needs are a high quality backpack, tent, and stove. And these items can be used over and over again in your future trips.

Here are some tips you can use to have a great and exciting camping and hiking vacation:

1. Get a good map of the area you're planning to travel to. Make sure the terrains are not too hard for you to hike through.

2. Get all the necessary permits to have a camping and hiking trip in the area you're planning to go to. Also, make sure you check all the regulations concerning fires, cleanups, etc.

3. Dress with the appropriate clothes for hiking and camping. Make sure the clothes are made from material that's suitable for hiking and camping in the wilderness. And bring enough extra clothes with you in case you need them.

4. Know how to operate the equipments that you bring. Try setting up the tent once or twice at home to make sure you don't run into difficulty when you set it up in the camping site.

5. Pack sufficient foods for the trip. You're going to burn a lot of calories during the hiking, so make sure you bring enough foods that are high in carbohydrate, protein, and fat.

6. Find out where the water sources are in the trail. Drinking plenty of water is important in a hiking trip because it'll prevent you from dehydration, so you'll need to stock plenty of water in your backpack.

7. Take a first aid kit with you in case you'll need it in the trip. You might also want to bring a GPS system or a satellite phone if you're planning to travel far into the backcountry.

Choosing a Torch

Now when the evening begins to set in you are not going to be able to just reach over and flick on the light switch. You will need to have some form of portable lighting with you. There are many different forms of lighting you can take, each with its own benefits and disadvantages. The first step in choosing your lighting is to decide what you are going to need it for. Write yourself a list of requirements and then scroll down the page to see which item suits your needs.

Torches

Torches tend to be lightweight and durable making them ideal for walking to and from the toilet block at night and spotting guy ropes when walking across a busy field. They come in many different forms and the more you pay the more durable and powerful the torch is. Below I have selected a few torches I believe are good examples of what you can buy within a certain price range to meet certain requirements.

At the lower end of the price scale is the Uniross Compact Torch which retails on Amazon for £6.04 and acts as an affordable, compact torch that is extremely lightweight with reasonable durability. This kind of torch comes with rechargeable batteries that can be charged 500 times saving you money in the long run.

For a few more pounds you can invest in a really durable torch like the MAGLITE TORCH BLISTER 4D BLACK which I have included as it comes with the benefit of the excellent Maglite reputation. Retailing at £21.91 you do pay extra for durability but the Maglite range are made from 'aircraft' grade aluminium and are water and shock resistant. You do have to compensate with weight but it is a small price to pay for an excellent torch. I always keep a Maglite with me.

The Dynamo wind up led flashlight torch*Silver/Black retailing at £5.99 is an example of an emerging technology proving popular amongst campers; A wind-up torch requiring no additional batteries! If you are unfamiliar with wind-up torches then the basic principle is that you wind a dynamo for a few minutes, storing energy as you do, which then powers the torch for a few minutes. These torches are great because you can just leave them with your camping stuff and not have to worry about the batteries running out over long periods of time. They can also be more cost effective in the long term ; £5.99 is effectively the cost of two sets of batteries so within a year you will have recouped the costs I'd imagine! These torches can be just as durable as regular torches but again you pay extra for this durability.

The 16 LED ULTRA BRIGHT HEADLIGHT HEAD LIGHT TORCH retailing at £6.99 is a battery powered head torch and is excellent in situations where you want your hands free. This can be on night walks, when your outside re-setting guy ropes in the middle of a stormy night, or when you just want to read your book as the night draws in. I have deliberately selected an affordable version but as always if you want longer lasting, brighter, more durable versions you will pay more.

The key factors you need to be accessing are 'Is it durable enough?' , 'Is it bright enough?', 'Does it last long enough?' , 'Is it cost-effective?'. By weighing up your requirements against the specification for a torch will easily allow you to determine which is best for the job.

Economic Camper Trailers

Do you remember growing up and taking the camper out with your parents or grandparents? Exploring new places, streams, lakes, forests. Enjoying nature, eating food you can cook on a stick, and playing cards by lantern light well into the night? Camping is a time honored tradition in many countries like the US and the UK. Camper trailers or "coaches" as they call them overseas are a very popular way to get out and unwind after weeks of stress that builds from modern living.

Camper trailers are a very convenient and easy way to take a weekend holiday. They are typically small and lightweight, they tend to be easily towed by even a normal car, and they are easy to transport and more importantly- store when you're not camping. Some of these campers are hard shelled, and they have a teardrop shape that helps keep the mileage down on your gas bills as you drive to and from the camping grounds. Often they have features like mini kitchens and burners, possibly a small generator for electricity, and cabinets for storing your camping supplies and food. Basically everything you need for any weekend warrior type.

Folding campers are good compromises between a full on RV and a backpack with a tent. They offer the small space and price that makes them available to many, while still providing the creature comforts you know and love and yes... even need.

When traveling alone, with two people, or even with a small family, a small camper is a fun purchase to make for everybody. There's nothing quite like taking your tea alongside a flowing river, or cooking some fresh s'mores on an open fire. Those are memories that you will hold close in your heart for years to come.

There are many different brands of campers and travel trailers, and used camper trailers are a hot ticket item in the Summer, Spring, and Fall times. Especially in an economy that makes international vacations unrealistic, owning your very own version of a hotel room and taking it out on the weekends is a great way to get the R&R you need while not spending more money that you don't have.

There's no need to worry or stress out when shopping for folding camper trailers. Visit CamperTrailerTitan.com to read reviews and get awesome deals on a new or used folding camper, travel trailer, pop up camper, or tent trailer.

Camping Pack List

When you're getting ready to go camping, there's always the question of what gear to bring. Having too much stuff is no fun - especially if you're hiking in to your campsite - but you don't want to be without something essential either. A lot of what you'll need will vary depending on several factors - the length of your trip, the weather, where you'll be camping, etc - but let's take a look at what you can expect to need on most camping trips.

There are several things you'll need on any camping trip that you go on. Always bring the following:

Tent (or a tent equivalent, such as a heavy duty hammock, or the materials for a lean-to if you're roughing it)
Sleeping bag
First aid kit
Flashlight
Matches
Knife
Hatchet and/or machete (for cutting up firewood)
Food and water

For cold weather camping, you'll want to bring at least one of each of the following. There's no need to run out and buy new things. You'll be out in the woods and everything is going to get dirty anyway, so the old, beat up sweatshirt and jacket will do fine.

Sweatshirt (with a hood if you have one)
Jacket
Cap
Gloves
Sleeping bag liner (if needed, depending on the weather rating of your bag)

If the weather is going to be very hot, plan on bringing these items:

Sunscreen
Large hat (to keep the sun off)
Extra water
Canopy (to provide shade)
Fan (you can get a small battery powered fan at any mega-mart for cheap)

Lastly, if you're camping at a campground and won't be hiking in to your campsite, then there are several more things you might want to bring. Some of these will depend on the facilities available at your campground though, so do a bit of research before you go to find out what is available.

Camping chair
Hammock
Camp table
Camp stove or grill
Fishing pole
Small backpack for day hikes
Towels and swimsuits

Quick camping guide

When you think about the best advice regarding camping for someone who enjoys luxury, you might think that the only fitting advice for that category is this - don't go camping! But if you are a person who loves the good life but has been roped into a camping trip, that might not be an option. If you are in a position where you absolutely must camp, then the following tips should get you through the trip with minimal inconvenience. In other words, they should take the "rough" out of "roughing it."

First of all, make sure that the tent you select is really top of the line. By which, I mean it should be weatherproofed and lined to keep out light and as much noise as possible. You also want to apply this philosophy to the sleeping bag that you choose. Make sure it is as warm as it can get (mountains tend to get quite cold at night, even in the middle of summer) and that it is as soft as is available. But don't stop there. No. An air mattress to go underneath your top of the line sleeping bag is absolute must, and this must be the best model, as well. The most sturdy and comfortable kind are the three tiered system beds. They are the least likely to spring a leak, as well.

Here's the thing - no one ever said that luxury, or even the imitation version of luxury that you are able to achieve on a mountain top, would come cheap. But if you are willing to shell out the dough, you can make your camping experience much more enjoyable.

Camping on A budget

Does the cost of travel have you wondering if you can afford to take your family on a vacation this year? Then you might want to take your family on a camping trip. Campgrounds at state parks, national parks, national or state forests, and other public recreation areas make great destinations.

What can you expect at the campground?
It costs around $12-$25 to spend a night at these campgrounds, which is much less than the cost of a motel room these days. The parks are typically run by park rangers, who also provide security at the campgrounds. Each campsite will likely have a fire-pit, charcoal grill, and a picnic table. There will be an area to set up your tent, and a place to pull your car off the road. These parks usually have buildings that enclose bathrooms and showers. You'll also find drinking water available, places to do your dishes, and trash containers. Yes, there is some work to camping, but what a great way to involve the family in daily chores.

What recreation is available?
Most public parks have hiking trails, and many parks have lakes for fishing, boating, and swimming. Imagine the sight of your kids seeing a deer cross the path or a raccoon snooping through the campsite at night. There may also be a playground with swings, basketball courts, and other amenities. Also remember to bring along bikes, balls and gloves, board games, Frisbees, or any other favorite game or toy. There will be plenty of opportunities for the family to play together. Many state parks and other public parks offer nature programs for the kids, and some even show outside movies on weekends. Since most of these parks are located in remote areas away from city lights, they make great places to watch sunsets and to gaze at the stars at night.

Common tip for camping

Half of being a good camper is about being prepared. The other half is about using common sense. Campers often forget where they are, and they find themselves in situations that could have easily been avoided.

1. Finding a campground

Not every campground is right for every camper. Choose accordingly. If you're new to camping, pick a public campground close to home. Public campgrounds are run by a government agency, and they are consistent in their services and regulations. Private campgrounds vary from one to another. If you are tent camping, avoid RV parks. Believe me, most tent campers don't like camping next to RVs, which can be noisy with their A/C and generators running all night.

2. Reservations

Don't make reservations at a campground that you have never visited. Reservations get lost, campgrounds fill up, and you may travel long distances only to find out that you have no campsite. If you must make reservations, be sure to get a confirmation over the phone or in an email, and get all necessary information while on the phone. Ask about their cancellation and refund policy, check-in times, and visitor rules before you get to the campground.

3. Try out gear in advance

When you acquire new camping gear, take the time to try it out before you get to the campground. Set the tent up in your back yard so that you can become familiar with how it goes up, and just as import, how it comes down and packs. Use your sleeping bags in the family room for a night to see how comfortable it is and how well you sleep. Cook a meal on your stove to see how well it performs. Try your lanterns outside at night so that you can see just how much light they give off.

4. Choosing a campsite

They say when buying real estate that it's all about location. You could say the same thing about choosing a campsite. When choosing a campsite, look at its proximity to things like bathrooms, showers, playgrounds, dog loops, lakes/rivers, and garbage disposal areas. Some places are nice to have nearby while others, depending on your personal preferences, are better off further away. Never choose your campsite hastily.

5. Tent placement

As a general rule, pick a high level spot to pitch your tent. You'll sleep better, and should it rain during the night water will drain away from your tent. Erect your tent far enough from any grill or campfire so that sparks won't fly into it. Never set your tent up on low ground. Aim your tent door away from the direction of the morning sun. That way you won't wake up and exit your tent into the blinding sun.

6. Food cooking/eating/storage

Cook food outdoors in designated areas, usually around the grill or campfire. Never cook in your tent. A small flame or spark can quickly put holes in a tent. Eat wherever you like at your campsite, but never eat in your tent. Critters will not hesitate to eat holes in your tent to get to food crumbs. Store all food in tight containers, preferably in the trunk of your car. If you leave your cooler out, put a rock or something heavy on top to keep critters out. Never leave food sitting out.

7. Foul weather

Heavy rain, lightning, snow storms, and high winds all spell misfortune to the camper. Unless you are a die-hard camper that camps in any weather, avoid camping when storms are brewing. If the weather forecast looks bad, consider rescheduling your camping trip. If you are intent on camping when it is possible that it might rain, you better have a tent that will keep you dry. There's nothing more uncomfortable than being soaking wet inside your tent.

8. Safe campfires

One of the joys of camping is sitting around the campfire. Wherever you build your campfire, keep it small. A bonfire is not necessary. Keep a bucket of water nearby, and use it to douse the fire before retiring. If you have kids, closely supervise them, and remember that toasted hotdogs and marshmallows can be very hot. Never leave a campfire unattended. Be sure you have bandages and burn ointment in your first aid kit. Ice works well to sooth the pain of burns too.

9. Bugs and critters

You are camping outdoors where birds, bugs and other critters live. Watch wildlife from a safe distance. Take sprays to deter bugs. When camping in the woods, check now and then for ticks. Don't leave food out unattended, and don't feed the wildlife, they will continue to come around your campsite and be a nuisance.

10. Packing up

When it is time to leave the campground, try to pack your gear dry. If you must pack it wet, be sure to spread it out to dry at home at your first opportunity to avoid mold and mildew. Pick up all trash and debris around your campsite, and dispose of it properly. As a courtesy to campers just arriving, tell the campground attendant when you are leaving that your site is available.

Chicken for camping

A camping recipe from Beth. This recipe is easy and very tasty. It's also great for those low-carb diets. After all, anything with bacon and cheese has got to be good.

Prep Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• salt and pepper, to taste
• McCormick brand chicken seasoning
• hot sauce
• cilantro (I use McCormick brand)
• 1 cup pepper strips, frozen or fresh
• 1/2 medium onion, chopped
• 4 slices bacon
• 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Preparation:

Cook bacon on griddle or fry pan, drain fat, and set aside. Shake salt and pepper, seasoning, hot sauce, and cilantro on both sides of each chicken breast. Go easy on the hot sauce, two shakes on each side will be plenty, more if you like it hot. Pan sear or grill chicken until it's no longer pink inside. saute pepper strips and onion until tender. Top cooked chicken with peppers and onions. Sprinkle both kinds of cheese on chicken. Place cooked bacon strips on each chicken breast. Cook all until the cheese melts. Either place everything in a casserole dish and bake, or close top of grill like you do with cheeseburgers.
