Ingredients

Vegetable oil
Tube of pre-made pizza crust
Small can of tomato sauce
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Grated cheddar cheese
Garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Sliced onions
Pepperoni Slices

Directions

Pour vegetable oil in the cold Dutch Oven, spreading it around the bottom and sides of the Dutch Oven.

Take the pizza dough out of the tube and split it in half. Spread half of the dough in the bottom of the Dutch Oven.

Spread the tomato sauce over the pizza dough and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Add sliced onions and sliced pepperoni. Add additional pizza toppings at this time.

Place the dutch oven on the prepared hot coals.

After the pizza has cooked approximately 10 minutes and the dough is baked, remove the lid and sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheese.

Place lid back on the Dutch Oven and let the cheese melt. The more hot coals placed on the lid, the faster the cheese will melt.

When cheese is melted, remove lid and then remove the Dutch Oven from the coals. You’re pizza is now ready to eat.

Pre-Camp Breakfast McMuffins

franklinfotography15

Making breakfast in the morning on a camping trip can be time consuming and depending on the weather, not enjoyable. It is super nice to roll out of your tent and heat up the food real quick instead of preparing, cutting, and cooking to make breakfast. A few nights before your camping trip, try this recipe to make breakfast with ease.

Ingredients

16oz Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage
12 eggs
12 slices of cheddar cheese
1oz milk
2 packages (6 count) English muffins
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
Directions (At home)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk together with salt, pepper, and milk. Pour into 9″x12″ glass pan (egg mixture should be about 1-inch along bottom of pan) and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the egg is cooked thoroughly. Remove pan and let sit. Cut eggs into 12 squares and put in a Tupperware container. Place in refrigerator.

Form sausage patties about the size of the english muffins. Add sausage patties to a large skillet and set it over medium high heat. Cook until sausages are golden brown and cooked through, flipping once. Remove and place in a Tupperware container. Place in refrigerator.

Pack all cooked foods into a cooler for the camping trip.

Directions (At Camp)

Heat a medium skillet over camp stove. Add the eggs and sausages to warm on the stove. Add cheese to melt if preferred. Split English muffins in half and top with sausage, egg, and cheese. Add condiments (hot sauce, mayonnaise, mustard, etc.) if desired.

Enjoy!
