Foil Packet Dinner Recipes That Are Perfect For Camping
Foil packet dinners are a great minimal effort, low mess dinner option without compromising on flavor!
My favorite thing about foil pack dinners is you can throw literally anything in them meat and sides all together and cook them. We started making them while camping and then realized how simple of a dinner idea this is to make at home.
Whether you want fish, steak and potato, vegetable or chicken for dinner, you can throw any of these in a foil packet and put it in the oven or if you are camping these are the BEST campfire foods!
If you are going camping and want to prep these meals ahead of time to make things easier – put it all in zip lock baggies (meat and marinade in one and veggies in another) and freeze. Then take it with you and defrost before placing in foil to cook.
I also usually spray the foil with non-stick cooking spray just to prevent any sticking. This is optional – but I do it as a precautionary measure.
These are great for family meals or just for a dinner for two (or even just for one).
The options are endless and the cleanup is a breeze! There is nothing to wash except the things you used to prep the food. You just dump and cook and throw the foil away when done. No pots and pans to wash!
Another thing I like to make when I don’t want to use a lot of dishes is these super easy sheet pan dinners.
These are such simple dinner ideas that can be made with little effort and little mess!
