Notes

Camp Cooking Tip: These instructions are for a prep-ahead freezer camp meal but you can also just prepare the ingredients at the campsite and cook immediately.

Camp Cooking Tip: If the sauce is too thin, remove the lid and continue cooking till it reaches the desired thickness.

Camp Cooking Tip: We love cooking over the campfire with our Dutch ovens, but this recipe can be made using a camp stove or RV stove.
