Campfire Foil Meal

Outdoor CookingIt is officially fall. I’m one happy camper (pun intended).

Now that it is fall a lot of American Heritage Girls troops are planning campouts. I have decided to devote the next couple of Friday posts to camping.

Requirement #14 of the Outdoor Cooking merit badge has the girls create foil meals.  This is one meal that works well for the entire group – regardless of which ages are camping.  I set up an assembly line and allow the girls to prepare their own meal.

Home-style Meat and Potatoes

I love being able to provide my family a home cooked meal that is easy to prepare, well-balanced and they all love.

My home-style meat and potatoes is just that.  It is also ideal to take to someone after having a baby or re-covering at home.  One pan contains potatoes, hamburger patties and green beans.

Hamburger Vegetable Soup

For all you foodies out there, yesterday was National Homemade Soup Day. On a cold winter day, nothing is better than a bowl of homemade soup.

A family favorite around my house is Hamburger Vegetable Soup. It has enough meat to keep the hubby happy and lots of vegetables (carrots, corn, green beans, peas, and celery). I love the recipe because I can throw it in the slow-cooker and have dinner on the table when the hubby gets home from work.

HAMBURGER VEGETABLE SOUP

1 lb. of ground beef – browned

2 cups water

6 beef bouillon cubes

1 large can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes

1 10oz package of frozen mixed vegetables

1 clove of garlic minced

1 teaspoon of oregano
