Hi,

Have a look at this website. Perhaps there is something there you might be interested in. If you try any of the recipes, let us know.

Have a great trip!   http://www.koa.com/recipes/campfirecooking.htm

I don't know how many people you are feeding, size this accordingly.

We make a mountain man breakfast ( and I don't know where the name came from)

In a dutch oven.

I brown 1 lb of sausage, drain greese

add 1 doz eggs.  Stir them in to scramble them good.

add 1 bag of shoe string potatos  Stir to mix everything up.

Add 1 bag of shredded cheese, layer it on top.

Put lid on and let simmer long enough for potatos to get hot and cheese to melt.

Sever with Tortillas.  We usually spoon a bunch on the tortilla add Pico or Salsa roll up and eat.

You can feed a pretty good group and only dirty one dutch oven for breakfast.

If you are feeding a bunch with different tastes the omelets in the bag are a great idea.  Give everyone a quart size ziplock bag, I use the quart size freezer bags, and have them write their name on the bag.  Scramble two eggs in a cup and then pour into a ziplock bag.  Then have each person add to their bag whatever they like in an omelet.  (If you use meat of any kind it should already be cooked.)  Seal the bag getting out as much air as possible.  Drop the bags into a pot of boiling water and boil 8 - 10 minutes.  DO NOT add milk to your eggs, they won't cook properly.  You'll know the omelet is done when you don't see any liquid in the bag.  

Make sure there is enough room in the pot for the bags to "roll" in the boiling water.  Don't overcrowd the pot.  When the omelets are done just cut open the bag, roll out your omelet and enjoy!

We make these quite often and they always seem to be a hit.

Enjoy and happy trails!

Here's a Camp Stew recipe for one pot.

1 1/2 lb. ground beef

1/2 c. breadcrumbs

1 tsp ground or minced dried onion

1 tsp ground or minced dried garlic

1 tsp salt

1/2 (or more) tsp pepper

1 egg

1 lg. can chopped tomatoes

3 cans condensed vegetable soup

Mix 1st 7 ingredients together and then add 1/2 cup of the juice from the canned tomatoes.  Form into 1" meatballs and brown in 3-4 tbls. bacon fat or butter in a dutch oven.

Add tomatoes, juice from tomatoes, soup and 1/2 to 1 soup can of water to pot. Simmer until heated through.  You can make a batch of dumplings to spoon on top. Use bisquick or another self rising mix.

The meatballs can be prepared ahead of time and frozen, or mix the dry ingredients ahead of time (breadcrumbs and spices) to make prep time shorter at camp.

Here's a great site for all kinds of recipes for the Dutch Oven. Once you get the hang of the DO, anything you cook in your oven at home can be done in the DO. My biscuits are better camping than in my home oven. Happy cooking! http://www.macscouter.com/Cooking/GEEZERCB.pdf

If your looking for a snack, this went over pretty good at our camp. It makes enough to feed many. I looked at this recipe at first, and I thought, yuck, but I know my husband likes this kind of stuff so I made it and it was really good. Has a kick to it too. Don't mind the name(Caviar).lol

Publix grocery stores here in Fla have a receipe program called Apron receipes. They print up 4 color cards with photos of the food, grocery list, and the receipe.  I've tried at least 15 of these with great success for camping trips and at home.  They are always easy to prepare.  They have a website

http://www.publix.com/aprons/meals/simplemeals   where you can download the receipes, etc  Some of the ones I've tried (and got great reviews) include the pepperoni ravioli, rice primavera, various salads, etc
