Do you smell that? It’s the time of year when the air gets a bit or crisp, leaves start changing and smells of spice, apples and pumpkins feel the air. Yep, it’s Fall, and it’s one of our favorite times of year.
While summer winds down, camping only gets better. Cooler temperatures promise comfortable days and nights spent warming up by a campfire. There’s still time to make great memories together this year. To help, we’ve put together some of our favorite camping Fall recipes. Bon a Petit!
S’More Basics
It wouldn’t be Fall without pumpkin everything…even s’mores! This is a simple take on our favorite camping treat.
Ingredients Needed:
- Pumpkin Pie
- Marshmallows
- Graham Crackers
- Chocolate
Take a left-over pumpkin pie (or buy one if you are looking for ease!) a pumpkin pie, cut pie into small squares, place square on graham cracker, stack roasted marshmallow and chocolate and top with graham cracker. It’s that easy…and very tasty!
Campfire Chili Lasagna
Is there anything better than warming up to a heaping bull of chili? This easy recipe is sure to warm you up without letting you down. Use your Dutch Oven to make this over the fire.
Ingredients Needed:
- I can corn
- 1 can red beans
- 1 can hot chili beans (or mild)
- 1 can medium black olives halved
- 1 box Hamburger Helper Lasagna
- 1 ½ pounds hamburger meat or meat substitute
- Diced onion
- Grated cheese
Brown hamburger and drain. Drain all liquid from cans into a measuring cup, adding water to get to the amount called for to make Hamburger Helper. Add the Hamburger Helper spice packet and noodles, cook for 10 minutes in a slow boil. Add black olives, corn and red beans and cook covered for 5-7 minutes. Add chili beans and cook on low until noodles are done. Top with cheese and onions.
Pigs in a Sleeping Bag
Okay, okay, a bit of spin on the traditional Pigs in a Blanket, but we promise this will become a common request from your family camping.
Ingredients Needed:
- Can Pillsbury Grands! Cinnamon Rolls or something similar
- Cooked bacon (enough for cinnamon rolls)
- Skillet
Separate cinnamon rolls. Unroll first layer of rolls and insert cooked bacon, reroll over bacon pinching the dough together to seal it up. Bake for about 15 minutes, watching to make sure the tops are golden brown. Make even more a taste of Fall by incorporating Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls instead.
These quick recipes will be a sure hit to make your trip even better. Enjoy!
