Because I am camping, I have to prepare my meals. I used to make oatmeal for breakfast and canned soup for dinner, but now I mostly eat cold food such as cereal with milk (protein), sandwiches with home-made hummus (more protein!), yogurt, DIY trail mix, etc. Quicker, healthier and less cleanup. But hot coffee is non-negotiable!
This requires an extremely well insulated cooler.
... and it helps to find a shady spot to park your car.
Camping is surprisingly cheap at the Grand Canyon. It just takes some online research. I prefer a quiet spot, e.g. not next to the bathrooms. An inexpensive mesh tent with a detachable rain fly works fine.
And for hiking in desert like conditions, protecting your skin from the sun trumps style. My cap does a great job, even though a guy that reviewed it worried that the white mesh neck shade looked "too bridal."
