When we decided to go camping near Hawk Mountain, we knew we'd need food. However, I wasn't sure what to bring. Asking around, it seemed like foil packs are pretty easy and popular. I'd never made foil meals before, so if you've got any hints for next time, please share in the comments! The concept's pretty straightforward - wrap everything in foil, and then cook it over a fire. Since I made these last minute, I just threw together what I had on hand. You can easily customize based on your preferences. One thing I do recommend is using a double layer of foil and making your seal along the top. A single foil layer can result in burning through, and the seam on top allows you to move the foil packet around more easily when cooking as well as easier opening.
What are some of your favorite camping foods?

DeleteFoil pocket shrimp with veggies and corn on the cob is great on the grill during the summer. #trafficjamweekend

DeleteThis sounds awesome and easy, although I will skip the carrots as my son does not like cooked carrots.
ReplyDeleteSuper easy! And another benefit of making your own is you get to customize any way you want. :)
