Sweet Stuffed Onions

Sweet Stuffed Onions is an easy addition to your campfire meals. This campfire dinner recipe is very easy to prepare!

Ingredients

4 extra-large sweet onions
1 pound thinly-cut pork sirloin, cubed (or substitute other meat)
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup boxed cornbread stuffing mix
2 tablespoons mild green chile powder
3 large poblano chiles, roasted, peeled and seeded
¼ cup sweet red pepper, chopped
½ cup Mexican Parmesan cheese, grated
cilantro and avocado for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. Slice the tops off of the onions ¼ of the way down, and slice the roots from bottom creating a flat bottom. Peel the skins from the onions. Cut an ‘X’ into the center and use a spoon or melon baller to remove the center portion, leaving the walls approximately ½-inch thick. Dice ¼ cup of onion from the centers and store the remaining onion for use in another recipe.

2. Mix diced onion with pork, salt and pepper, cumin, stuffing mix, chile powder, poblano chiles, red pepper and cheese. Fill each onion bowl with mixture. Wrap onions in large squares of heavy duty foil, bringing seams together on top by flattening the foil slightly. Keep wrapped onions upright and nestle each on hot coals. With a small shovel, top each onion with 1 to 2 hot coals.

3. Cook approximately 30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into center registers 175-180°F. Remove from coals, carefully open foil and serve. Garnish with cilantro and avocado, if desired. Serves 4.

Remember to bring a few kitchen utensils — a spoon, large mixing bowl, sharp knife, meat thermometer, and foil to prepare this free campfire recipe for Stuffed Onions at the campsite.

Best Seasoning For All Your Camping Meals — Only Need One!

September 16 rosalie Campfire Breakfast Recipes, Campfire Dinner Recipes, Free Camping Recipes

A Seasoning for Every Meal

One of the best seasonings that I have found is Suzanne’s Gourmet Southwest Rub. This awesome combination of spices makes all of your camping meals better! It is great with almost anything, from eggs at breakfast, to adding extra zest to sandwiches for lunch, to making a great dip when combined with sour cream or yogurt, to seasoning the meat, pasta and vegetables for dinner! The ingredients are listed as ancho chili flakes, garlic, onions, salt, spices and dark brown sugar. I believe the secret is in their combination of ‘spices’! Add it to any of your favorite camping recipes for extra flavoring or an exciting new flavor!

The seasoning is available at Suzanne’s Hot Stuff, located in Cave Creek, Arizona. It is also available from their website www.suzanneshotstuff.com. If you are from or are visiting Arizona be sure to visit their store in Cave Creek, located just north of Phoenix. They also have many other great southwest seasoning products. Or log on to their website where you can place an order and can also check out all of their other products. Everything that I have tried has been wonderful!

Baked Vegetables

Baked Vegetables

Easy camping meals must include this campfire vegetable recipe for baked vegetables. This is an easy way to prepare vegetables by wrapping them in foil and baking over the campfire! All you need to add is oil to keep them moist and your favorite seasonings. No special cookware is required, and cleanup is a breeze!

Baked Vegetables

4 medium potatoes
4 carrots
1 onion
2 stalks celery
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp basil

Slice potatoes 1/4 inch thick. Slice carrots and celery 1/2 inch thick. Slice onion to 1/4 inch thick or less. Mince or chop garlic. Pour olive oil over vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Add the pepper and basil, mix. Create a foil pouch by using a piece of heavy duty foil 12 inches by 20 inches. Place vegetables in the middle. Bring the 12 inch sides together over top and fold tight. Fold up open ends and fold tight. The tight fold will ensure that the moisture stays inside.

Place on grill over fire. Bake until vegetables are tender, which will depend on how hot your fire is. For a good fire, average 30 minutes.

Variations:
1. Include or substitute your favor seasoning for the pepper and basil.
2. Use your favorite combination of vegetables. If you don’t like celery, leave it out. It works best to use vegetables that require similar length of cooking time. Try broccoli and cauliflour, which do not need to bake as long as the potatoes.
3. For added flavor, add a few dabs of butter to the vegetables before you close the foil wrap.
