These Recipes Taste Better Made By CampfireCourtesy of Delish - Hearst Owned

If you think the only food you can make around a campfire is ho-hum hot dogs, burgers, and s’mores, then we’re here to broaden your horizons. Even though when you’re out in the great outdoors you don’t usually have access to a traditional stove, oven, or air fryer (we could keep going), that doesn’t mean you still can’t make a deliciously satisfying meal. Believe it or not, many typical dishes you would make at home taste even better when prepared over an open flame.

From lip-smackingly good grilled pizza to out-of-this-world French toast, here are ten recipes you must try during your next outdoor excursion.

Grilled Shrimp Foil Packets

Believe it or not, this tasty seafood recipe requires just ten minutes of prep time. Made with shrimp, andouille sausage, corn, red bliss potatoes, and Old Bay seasoning, this filling dish is a must for family camping trips or nights spent around the backyard bonfire.
