When we went camping, I wanted to be sure that I stayed true to my meal plans as best as possible. Sure, I let myself enjoy a s’more and a mountain pie, but I didn’t get out of control. One of the reasons was that I planned a few good meals throughout the weekend, including campfire quesadillas.
Campfire Quesadillas
(a semi-original recipe by me)
Ingredients
1 soft shell tortilla per quesadilla (Healthy Option: Whole Wheat)
1 can of chicken breast in water
1 tbsp. taco seasoning
1/8 c. cheese per quesadilla
Sliced Peppers and Onions
Foil
Olive Oil cooking spray
Salsa, Sour Cream (for dipping)
Instructions
1. Set out foil squares for each quesadilla. Spray generously with cooking spray.
2. Lay the tortilla on the foil.
3. Mix the taco seasoning into the (drained) can of chicken breast. Scoop the amount you desire onto the shell.
4. Add cheese and veggies if you desire.
5. Fold the foil around the quesadilla. Sit the packet on the grill over the campfire.
6. Turn after 2 minutes. Check for crispiness (and lack of burn) after the second side has been on the fire. Cook to your desired heat/color.
7. Enjoy! I suggest dipping in salsa, others prefer sour cream.
