Campfire Cones

Marshmallows are a must for any camping trip! With campfire cones, you can enjoy lots of goodies in one cone!
To make these you will need:
Waffle cones
Foil
Items to fill the cones: marshmallows, chocolate chips, butterschotch chips, mini peanut butter cups, candy bars, raspberries, strawberrie, bananas, etc (The possibilities are endless!!)
Directions:
Fill your cup with your choice of items
Wrap the cone with foil and lay on the grate over the fire for 3-5 minutes. Use tongs to remove and unwrap the cone. Let it cool for a couple of minutes and enjoy!! So simple and so yummy!!
The best part is that you don't have to have a campfire to make these, you can make them at home in your oven as well!!
Campfire Cinnamon Roll Ups

Here is another sweet treat for your next trip.
Ingredients:
1 package crescent rolls
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
Skewers
Directions:
Mix the cinnamon and sugar
Take individual crescent rolls and wrap each one around a skewer
Roll in the cinnamon/sugar mix
Cook over the fire 5 about five minutes, while rotating it often
**These are delicious enough on their own, but if you'd like to sweeten them up even more you can make a glaze to drizzle over them. Just combine 1/4C powdered sugar and 2-3T of water. I hope you love this delicious and easy treat!

We have some sweet treats above, but what about a snack that is more on the savory side? Why not try this campfire nacho recipe from pipandebby.com?
Equipment
-
Skillet
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 jalapeno pepper sliced
- 1 bunch green onions thinly sliced, white and green parts
- 1 bag tortilla chips
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 cups iceberg lettuce chopped
- 1 tomato chopped
- salsa or taco sauce for drizzling, dipping
Instructions
-
In a cast-iron skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat (using grill, campfire or stove top) until no longer pink. Create a hole in the center of the meat and add jalapenos and green onions. Cook, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes. Transfer mixture to a bowl and line the bottom of the hot skillet with chips.
-
Pour the ground beef-green onion mixture evenly over the chips. Top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and salsa/taco sauce. Dig in immediately!
Notes
- These can be versatile and can be catered to your liking. Swap out the veggies for different ones or use a flavored variety of potato chip.
- Use sausage or chicken for the meat instead of ground beef or add avocados and sour cream to the top. Get creative!
- Once the nachos are layered, try putting a lid over the top to trap the steam which will help the cheese to melt more quickly. Don’t have a lid? Use aluminum foil!
Don't these look simple and delicious?!?!
I hope the next time you plan a camping trip, a fire in your backyard, or even just want a new snack to try at home, you will give these ideas a try! They are super simple and delicious!!
