If you are a tent camper, you are most likely cooking over an open fire for 80% of your meals. Sometimes hobo packs get old and you just want something different. Here are a couple of other recipes I found in an old Family Fun magazine.
For both recipes:
Combine ingredients in a 4 1/2 inch disposable aluminum pie pan and seal it in foil. Wrap a second layer over the pan and fold over the extra foil at the top to make a handle. Poke a stick or tongs through the handle and hold it over a fire. (You can also set it on the grill over the campfire). Cook according to the directions below. Let pack cool briefly and open carefully.
Fire Roasted Nachos
1/2 cup tortilla chips
1/2 cup Cheddar or Monterey Jack
Toppings (diced tomatoes, bell peppers, sliced jalapenos, black beans, etc)
Salsa (optional)
Cook for 10 minutes to melt the cheese and serve with salsa, if desired.
Foil Pack Mac 'N' Cheese
1/2 cup cooked elbow macaroni (plan ahead)
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar
1 Tbsp. Parmesan
1 Tbsp. milk
1/2 Tbsp. butter
salt and pepper to taste
Cook for 7 minutes until the cheese is melted. Stir before eating.
We actually use a camp stove for all of our meals. (The only time we cook over an open fire is when we are with you!) I plan some meals out ahead of time and dehydrate what I can, package it up in bags, and include the recipe to take along.
