A camping recipe from Robin Legband. Very easy dinner to prepare camping, and it really hits the spot. Everything cooks together and mixes so well with very little preparation.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 3 medium potatoes, cubed
  • 1 packet of any taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup salsa (I use Pace)
  • 1 can tomatoes with green chiles
  • jalepenos, sliced
  • grated cheese
Preparation:
Place all ingredients into foil bag. A large heavy duty foil bag works best. Roll down the top of the bag and shake around, just barely, to mix ingredients. Place on fire grate. Cook for about 45 minutes, turning over half way. Top with your favorite Mexican toppings. We used jalepenos and cheese. Two things that are very easily kept in a cooler.

Servings: 3
