A curried vegetable and chickpea dish made in an aluminum foil wrap over a campfire. This is an easy vegetarian meal while camping with almost no cleanup! (I hate doing dishes while tent camping.)
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower , broken into florets
- 1 can chickpeas , 15 ounce
- 5 reds potatoes , cut into cubes
- 1 zucchini , chopped
- 1 yellow squash , chopped
- 1 sweet onion , chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil , or as needed
- 0.25 cups curry powder , or to taste
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 0.33 cups vegetable broth , Optional
Instructions
-
1
Build a campfire and allow the fire to burn until it has accumulated a bed of coals. Rake the coals into a flat bed on one side of the fire. Alternatively, preheat an outdoor grill.
-
2
Combine cauliflower, chickpeas, potatoes, zucchini, yellow squash, and onion in large bowl.
-
3
Cut two 2-foot sections of aluminum foil and place one on top of the other. Fold the edges together so the 2 pieces will stay together. Drizzle olive oil in the middle of the foil, leaving 4 to 5 inches on each side for folding. Place a few handfuls of the cauliflower mixture over the olive oil; season with curry powder, salt, and pepper. Spoon some vegetable broth on top. Repeat with more foil and remaining cauliflower mixture.
-
4
Pull the 2 longer sides of each foil packet together over the cauliflower mixture and fold over several times until you almost reach the center. Flatten down the sides and roll them up toward the center.
-
5
Place the packets to the side of the campfire using long tongs. Cook until cauliflower mixture feels tender when you press the packets with the tongs, 20 to 30 minutes.
-
6
Remove packets from fire and let cool, about 5 minutes. Open from the top, leaving the rolled-up sides as-is, to create a bowl.

Cheeseburger Focaccia
When I told my oldest son we were having cheeseburger focaccia for dinner, he thought I was pranking him. His two favorite foods combined into one? I'd made all his 8-year-old dreams come true. His only request: hold the pickles. No problem—more for me! When cooking the ground beef for this, Don't be afraid to really dimple the surface of the focaccia before adding all the toppings. This gives the cheese and beef space to fill every nook and cranny, ensuring each bite of focaccia is packed with cheeseburger flavor.
Turkish Orange Salad with Mediterranean Dressing
Oranges and blood oranges are combined with olives and a simple Mediterranean olive oil and lemon dressing for a perfect appetizer that checks the clean eating box.
Sausage-Stuffed Eggplant
A local winery/restaurant serves a sausage-stuffed eggplant appetizer that is so delicious. While trying to duplicate it at home, I found this to be one of our favorite eggplant dinners. Be sure to select an eggplant that is smooth, blemish-free and kind of heavy for it's size. Serve with a green salad.
