Campfire Bananas
I remember making this dessert when I was in Girl Guides. It is a really easy and very tasty camp treat.
-
Campfire Beans
Our kids saw an old movie where the cowboys were eating beans from a can and decided it would be fun to have beans on our last camping trip. We didn't cook the beans in the can but we enjoyed our own variation in a big cast iron pot.
-
Campfire Pizza
This pizza is fun to make but you have to watch it doesn't burn. You can also make this on your BBQ using indirect heat, like an oven.
-
Campfire Baked Apples
Baked apples are great at home and amazing when cooked over hot coals. Try these if you are out camping.
-
Campfire Popcorn
We had a campfire popcorn popper when we were kids but I haven't been able to find one. We use heavy duty foil and it works everytime. You will need one package per person.
-
Omelette in a Bag
You will not believe how easy this recipe is. We tried it for the first time a few years ago during a summer camping trip. We now make them at home because they taste so good!
-
Campfire S'mores
This is our favourite summer treat. We keep a plastic container filled with supplies so we can make them anytime.
-
Perfect Lemonade
The key to making perfect lemonade every time is to use simple syrup, made by boiling together both water and sugar, then cooling. This completely dissolves the sugar and blends deliciously with the tart lemon.
-
Salmon Steaks
This recipe takes only 7-8 minutes to cook. That's why I like it. Serve with mashed potato if you like. Buying whole salmon is cheaper than buying steak.
-
Carrot Stick Salad
This recipe is from one of my favourite recipe books.
-
Frosty Snowman
Bring the snow inside and have fun cooking with the kids.
-
Cookie Monster Cookie Dough
This is the original Cookie Monster recipe. It makes simple cookies that are easy to eat and fun for kids to help in the preparation.
-
Frozen Jack-O-Lanterns
My kids love this special treat on Halloween!
-
Spare Arm Punch
Frightfully delicious!
-
Worms
You can use any colour gelatin.
