Campfire Enchiladas Recipe

Ingredients:

– 1 lb ground beef or chicken, cooked and seasoned with taco seasoning

– 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed

– 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

– 1 bell pepper, diced

– 1 onion, diced

– 1 can (10 oz) enchilada sauce

– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)

– 6-8 large flour tortillas

– Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, sliced olives, chopped cilantro, sour cream, avocado slices

Steps:

1. Prepare the Campfire:

– Start a campfire and let it burn down to hot coals. You’ll need a cast-iron Dutch oven or a heavy-duty aluminum foil packet to cook the enchiladas.

2. Prepare the Filling:

– Combine cooked and seasoned ground beef or chicken, black beans, corn kernels, bell pepper, and diced onion in a large bowl. Mix well.

3. Assemble the Enchiladas:

– Lay out a tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the filling mixture down the center. Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Roll up the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the Dutch oven or foil packet.

4. Repeat:

– Continue filling and rolling the remaining tortillas, arranging them snugly in the Dutch oven or foil packet.

5. Pour Enchilada Sauce:

– Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the Dutch oven or foil packet, ensuring all enchiladas are coated.

6. Cook over the Campfire:

– Cover the Dutch oven with its lid or seal the foil packet tightly. Place it directly on the hot coals of the campfire. Cook for 20-25 minutes until the enchiladas are heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

– Carefully remove the Dutch oven or foil packet from the coals. Serve the campfire enchiladas hot, garnished with optional toppings like diced tomatoes, sliced olives, chopped cilantro, sour cream, or avocado slices.
