The best thing about warmer weather is that it means a lot more time outdoors! It also means family time, and weekends spent camping. These 5 Appetizing, Foil-Wrapped Campfire Recipes are a must-try this camping season!
5 Appetizing, Foil-Wrapped Campfire Recipes
I love foil-wrapped campfire recipes! Not just because they are yummy and convenient when food prepping and packing for a camping trip, but also because they make for easy clean-up, and leftover storage… That is, if you even have any leftovers–because these recipes are delicious!

Instructions:
- In a saucepan, melt butter.
- Add frozen french fries, until coated.
- Next, using 1 or 2 slices of aluminum foil, create a boat for the fries.
- Layer the fries in the foil, and fold in all sides of foil, leaving the top slightly open.
- Then, place on grill, or in the oven, at 400° for 20-30 minutes. Stir at least once.
- Once the fries are cooked or crispy, top with cheese until it’s completely melted.
- Sprinkle with bacon and salt and pepper if needed.
