Does anyone have some good recipes for camping they would like to share. I am looking for something that is easy to fix, tastes good, and is good for you. Or something that I have not tried before.
Many thanks if you can share

I want to add : tacos in a bag. get the samll size bags of doritos, nacho chips or what kind you like, one for each serving. Brown the ground meat/Moringstar crumbles or whatever, chop tomatoes, onions, shred lettice, slice black olives, do whatever is necessary to what you like to put in your tacos. Then: Cut a small slit in the bag,(to let the air out) crunch up the chips then slit it open along the side, add the meat and whatever else you like on/in your tacos. Don't forget salsa, hot sauce, etc. Each person get a bag and fills it as they go along the line of possibilities. No plates, few forks, tastes good and is pretty easy.

Taco salad is a real easy fix. Take every thing bagged and layer it in a dish when you get there. My family loves the dressing I make for ours, so I save a little for dipping chips in and that adds a little more to the meal.

I have started using chicken instead of beef and more beans than meat. I use lighter versions of dressing ingredients to up the health value of the dish. I even bake my own chips from low fat corn tortillias to bring, and that lightens every thing up, considerably.

Hobo Stew!
onion, garlic and spices (s/p, and any spices you like - curry, cumin, oregano etc)
Several vegetables like mushrooms, any variety of squash, tomatoes, corn, peas, green beans, etc (whatever you have handy)
Starch - cut up some little potatoes, or leftover rice or pasta
Meat - chicken, ground beef, sausage (again, whatever you have around)

Cut ingredients up; wrap in individual packets of heavy-duty foil; season as desired.
Place foil packets on the grate over your campfire - wait about 20 minutes - Enjoy!!

Easy, tasty, no pots to clean.

Thanks, but I don't have a kindle. I am sure other people reading this might be able to use this information.

You can download the Kindle reader software to your computer or your iphone and then download the book

Anne,
I even make Hobo packets with various ingredients in them at home in the oven. I like all this different combinations you can throw together and forget about it until they are done. Easy cleanup too!

As a transient college weirdo I eat a lot of ramen noodles, but it doesn't have to be awful. This is one of my favorite recipes for poor-man's pho
Ramen Noodles
Lemon Juice
Cilantro
Mushrooms
Fresh ginger
Minced garlic
Hotdogs, spam, or lunch meat

Boil the ramen with 1 part lemon juice to 2 part water.
Include chopped cilantro, garlic, sliced mushrooms, a few slices of ginger, and cheap meat to the mix.
When noodles are soft pour into a bowl and add Sriracha "cock sauce" to taste.
Top with some fresh mushrooms and spinach leaves
Wonder what the poor folk are doing while you slurp down your noodle nirvana.
