Camping - Veggie Style!

Summer is upon us!  (In the Northern Hemisphere, anyway.)  Is anyone planning a camping trip?  I'm going backpacking/camping with some friends, but I'm looking for some ideas on what to eat.  It's my first time camping, so I'm really excited!

My current meal plan would include a breakfast of peanut butter (200), wheat bread (160), and an apple or banana (100) = 460 ; lunch of canned vegetarian chili (280), nutritional yeast (80), and packaged rice (160) = 520 ; and dinner of potato (130) and the rest of the vegetarian chili (280) (my tent-mates are going to love me every night!  haha) = 410.  Snacks would include canned V8 Juice (30) (gotta get SOME veggies), nuts (170), protein bar (280), and s'more (200) - all of which amounts to about 2000.

This seems a bit low, since there will be lots of hiking and swimming involved.  Also, kind of boring, having the same thing over and over for a week.  But I have no idea what else is available for vegetarian-friendly camping.  So I look forward to meal ideas and suggestions!  (And camping stories!  If you'd like to share.  Whee!  I can't wait!)
