Fine Dining by the Fireside
Join us in embracing the great outdoors and enjoy these nostalgic fireside recipes, perfect for camping, or outdoor on-the-go fuel! This summer, gather around the campfire with your friends and family and enjoy these classics again!
S’mores With A Twist
We agree that the classic s’more is just about as good as it gets, so gather your graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows and get to roasting, or grab a couple more of these gourmet ingredients to step it up a notch!
First things first: Roast your marshmallows. Experts recommend the perfect golden brown comes from skewering your marshmallows and holding them about a foot from the flame, rotating them for a couple of minutes until they reach the perfect golden brown color.
Get Creative:
For a more seasonal s’more, place your toasted marshmallow between two of your favorite chocolate chip cookies, add sliced strawberries, and enjoy this sweet summertime strawberry treat!
Try this unique take on a classic s’more for all of the peanut butter connoisseurs out there. Between your graham crackers, layer peanut butter, sliced bananas, your toasted marshmallow and dark chocolate. You’ll go bananas for this one!
Walking Tacos
Customizable, crunchy and convenient, walking tacos make the perfect fireside dinner while camping! This one-bag recipe is easy clean-up and the ideal way to satisfy your taco cravings at the campsite. This recipe takes only 30 minutes total and serves hungry campers!
Step 1: In a large cast iron skillet, sauté ½ chopped medium yellow onion in olive oil.
Step 2: Add 1 pound of ground beef to the skillet and stir occasionally while cooking.
Step 3: Drain the meat once it is fully cooked, then add two tablespoons of taco seasoning and ½ cup of salsa to the skillet. Let the mixture simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
Step 4: Remove taco meat from the skillet and gather the taco toppings of your choosing. We used lettuce, tomatoes, black beans, cheddar cheese, avocados, black olives, green onions and jalapeños. Customize your toppings however you like!
Step 5: Grab a chip bag of your choice and crush it up a little bit to get the perfect crunch factor in each bite. We recommend Doritos or Fritos, but feel free to get creative!
Step 6: Add a portion of your ground beef mixture to each bag. Next, add a dollop of sour cream and your favorite taco toppings.
Step 7: Grab a fork, stir it up and dig in! Enjoy your very own batch of walking tacos!
These campfire classics are simple but delicious. Enjoy these fireside eats on your next summer camping trip, or make them for a fun, family-friendly outdoor activity! Even if you’re stuffed after your delicious walking taco dinner, we promise there’s always room for s’more!
