I don't know about you but I love camping! Being outdoors, relaxing, no phone, no Internet, just you, nature, and your friends and family! Dinner around the campfire is always a fun time because everyone gets to catch up and discuss all the fun activities that were had throughout the day. Why miss out on that time cleaning and preparing for a meal when you could be sitting down and enjoying it? Here are some deliciously mouth watering meals that are quick and easy and won't leave you cleaning and preparing throughout most of your dinner sit down time!

Tips:

-Try to prepare as much food ahead of time as possible. Brown your chopped meat, create any tin foil packets (more about that below) ahead of time and place foil packs in ziplock bags, wash and chop all veggies etc.
