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.
