Walking Tacos
Kelly R. said: Sometimes the best camping recipes are the easiest. Whether you call them walking tacos or frito pie, these were made for eating around a campfire!

Foil Pack French Dip Sandwiches
Kelly R. said: Make ahead camping meals are well worth a little effort in advance, so you don't have to spend a lot of time preparing fussy recipes at the campground. This clever french dip recipe stuffs roast beef and cheese into a sliced baguette to create fun pull-apart sandwiches that can be packed into a cooler and cooked over the campfire.
