camp food...indoors

Last night we sort of had an indoor camping night...so fun! So naturally, the food we ate revolved around that theme. You have to try Paula Deen's Sure Fire No Fire Smores!! They are made in the oven and I even like them better than the campfire kind! And of course we had my favorite (thus far) hobo dinner. Everything done in our oven.

Here is the link to Paula Deen's Smores: http://recipes.pauladeen.com/index.php/recipes/view/sure_fire_no_fire_smores/

And here is our campfire bundles (adapted from a recipe I got out of some magazine)

1 large white onion
1 each large green, red and yellow bell peppers
5 red potatoes, sliced about 1/4-1/2 inch thick
1 package fully cooked kielbasa sausage, cut into 1/2 in. pieces
1/2 C butter
salt and pepper

Place vegetables in order listed on three pieces of double layered heavy duty foil (so this recipe makes 3 large pouches). Add sausage and dot with butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold foil around the mixture and seal tightly.
Grill: Grill, covered, over medium heat for 30 minutes. Turn and grill 30 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender.
Campfire: Place it into the coals. It does not take all that long to cook. Sorry, I can't remember the exact time.
Oven: We cooked it last night at 375 degrees for about an hour and 15 minutes, maybe a smidge longer until the potatoes were ready.
