These campfire meals in foil are easy to prep and keep in the cooler until you're ready to cook over a camp fire. You can use any combination of meat and vegetables that you like. Do not try to use less olive oil or foil, or your dinner will burn. Be careful when opening foil, as steam will have formed inside.

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.

Combine chicken, onion, mushrooms, peppers, garlic, and potatoes in a large bowl or a large resealable plastic bag. Pour in olive oil and lemon juice and toss to coat.

Taco Burgers
Burgers with a taco twist. I like to serve these taco burgers with sangria and a side of nachos.
Roasted Butternut Squash with Onions, Spinach, and Cranberries
A delicious deviation from the typical squash preparation, this recipe has kind of a nutty flavor with or without the nuts. Good as-is, but of course each person can salt and pepper their own serving to taste. The leftovers are good served as a cold salad if you don't like the cooked spinach that results from re-heating. Almonds and walnuts can be used in addition to or instead of the pecans.
Black Bean and Corn Salad
This black bean and corn salad is very colorful and includes a delicious lime and garlic dressing.
