I'm taking my wife camping for Saturday and Sunday.
What food can I pack that needs no refrigeration?
Also, it's her first time camping but not mine.

try freeze dried foods or MRE's. Most sporting goods stores such as Dick's or Cabela's have these, and you might even find some at Wal-Mart.

I am assuming you are packing and not car camping, so will list some light foods.
*Cheese - Guda, Edam whatever is packaged in wax works. Really, any hard cheese should be fine for a two day trip.
*Smoked Salmon - Some needs refrigeration and some doesn't depending on how it was cooked. My wife and I always have smoked salmon and cheese on our favorite crackers whether we are dayhiking, backpacking, or just picnicing
*If you have a dehydrater, you can dehydrate some homemade chili or marianara sauce. Combine with noodles of choice, and gourmet on the trail.
*Instant mashed potatoes with seasoning packet by Betty Crocker?
*Whiskey or bourbon
*Nuts
*Lipton makes some decent sides. Pastas and rices.
*Powdered milk and cereal for B'fast

I just went camping for the first time too. Try 2 E.L. Fudge striped cookies with a melted marshmallow in between. A thousand times better than a regular smore! Have fun!

Freeze-dried or canned foods (potatoes, tuna, ham, etc.). You can also bring slim jims and cooked bacon in the vacuum-sealed packs. I've also brought take-out chinese food which has so much MSG on it that it won't go bad either. Crackers, nuts, granola bars, cereal bars, trail mix, pringles are good for snacks.

Mre there a wide select . So you won't get bored witht the food. As any sporting goods store. Should have camp meals, that you just heat up.

You can cook up a feast for her - and it will be really good. Sounds like you must be backpacking - so no cooler at all?
If so, check out http://www.freezerbagcooking.com The site has lots of great ideas using instant foods and canned or pouch proteins (tuna, chicken, etc.)
Have fun!
