Campfire meals


These cook very well by simply tossing them onto the edge of a camp fire, but you can also grill them or bake them in an oven. These are VERY flexible and have widely varying cooking times – you need to check them and make sure they’re done.
Ingredients
ultra-lean ground beef
chili beans
chili powder
eggs
diced potatoes
chopped carrots
salt
pepper
butter (not too much)
ice
aluminum foil
Directions
Tear off a rectangular piece of aluminum foil and add ingredients above to your heart’s content. Add two ice cubes, then wrap the aluminum foil into a tight package. Cook the package on the edge of a campfire or over high grill heat for 10-15 minutes. Serve! (It’s good to have everyone make their own individual packages, because people have different tastes – I like eggs and chili and carrots and just a few potatoes, whereas my wife avoids the chili and eats plenty of potatoes.)
