Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb baby potatoes
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 sheets heavy-duty aluminum foil
Instructions
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes, then cut them into quarters.
Peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds.
Deseed and dice the red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.
Peel and chop the yellow onion into small chunks.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, potatoes, carrots, bell pepper, and onion.
Drizzle the mixture with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly coat all ingredients.
Lay out 4 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil (about 12x12 inches each) on a flat surface.
Divide the mixture evenly among the foil sheets, placing it in the center of each sheet.
Fold the sides of the foil up and over the mixture to create a sealed bundle. Be sure to leave a little space inside for steam to circulate.
Place the bundles over hot campfire coals or on a medium-heat grill. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping the bundles halfway through.
Carefully open one bundle with tongs to check if the potatoes are tender and the meat is fully cooked. If needed, reseal the bundle and cook for a few more minutes.
Once cooked, remove the bundles from the heat and carefully open them (watch out for the hot steam).
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the contents of each bundle while still hot, allowing it to melt.
Serve the campfire bundles directly in their foil for easy cleanup, and enjoy!
