1. Chex Mix


Chex Mix is great for parties and even greater for campouts. Plus, you can make a variety of flavors too. The options are endless and they’re very portable too. Why not make a spicy batch for the grownups and something sweeter for the kids? Win-win!

2. Banana Boats

Open a banana lengthwise so you can insert marshmallows and chocolate chips inside with the banana. Then grill it for a treat they will go bananas for.

3. Campfire Cones

Bring ice cream cones and a variety of ingredients of your choice to make these. Things to consider are chocolate chips (or even butterscotch, peanut butter, or white chocolate chips), nuts (like peanuts, walnuts, or almonds), mini marshmallows, coconut, dried fruit, or even banana pieces. Let the kids put the items they want into their cones, then wrap them up in foil. Heat on the grill or over the fire until the chocolate melts and let them enjoy.

Similarly, you can skewer a hot dog on a stick, wrap it with refrigerated dough, and cook it over the campfire for a camped-out version of a party classic.

6. Pizza Nachos

Two of the best things ever combined. You will need a cast-iron skillet for this, but it really couldn’t be any easier than adding tortilla chips, cheese, pepperoni and basically melding pizza with nachos for a winning combination. Add olives and other things you love to truly make it unique.

7. Pitas with Hummus
