Dry Food & Pantry Essentials - what to pack for camping
​​
We like to run with a bit of a list of "essentials" for the pantry - and then build around that when we can with the stuff that goes in the fridge and a few treats here and there. Ultimately, a lot of this stuff (eg flour, muesli, nuts etc) gets packed into the Sistema containers we keep banging on about. If you are heading remote, it is important to have sufficient to last a good 3-4 days longer than your anticipated trip, just in case you get stuck.
​
Anyway - its a bit of a basic list....but you can make a feed out of it, and can build on it. I reckon 5-6 kg would probably top it out (and with the exception of the fresh fruit it all gets packed into the kitchen box).

The below includes everything we packed for our trip through the Top End, Red Centre and Simpson Desert.
