INGREDIENTS
1 lb ground sausage
4 cups Wild Rice, cooked
2 medium apples, diced
1 cup chicken broth
1 can cream of mushroom soup
salt and pepper to taste
6 small pumpkins 2″-3″ diameter
tin foil

DIRECTIONS
1. Cook the rice ahead of time, following instructions on the package. You can use half wild rice, and half brown rice to lighten it up a bit. (note you may need to add more water while cooking, wild rice can soak it up too quickly.)

2. Cook sausage in skillet and crumble as you cook.

3. Grab the pumpkin and cut a large opening at the top. Clean and rinse out your pumpkin.

4. Dice your apples, then combine all of the ingredients (minus the pumpkin) in the skillet or large mixing bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.

5. Place your hot dish in to your cleaned pumpkins, spray cooking spray or rub a little bit of butter on tin foil. Put the pumpkin in the center of the tin foil and cover. Do this separately for each pumpkin. Bake for 30-40 minutes in the hot coals of a campfire, until bubbly. It is best to use tongs to take one out about 20 minutes in just to check the progress. The pumpkin should not be to mushy but still have a hardness to it, the inside of the pumpkin will be soft.

INGREDIENTS
4 apples, sliced
1/3 cup cinnamon red hot candies
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter

DIRECTIONS
1. Slice the apples in to small chunks

2. In a separate bowl combine red hot candies, brown sugar, and cinnamon, mix together

3. On a large piece of tin foil (it is best to double the tinfoil layers) butter the bottom then put the apple slices in the middle of the foil. Cover with candy and sugar mixture. Add butter across the top and wrap the tin foil, closing the apple mixture inside. Put in the coals of the fire for 10 minutes.

INGREDIENTS
1.5 pound(s) sliced turkey, shredded
1 cans cut green beans, drained
1/2 can whole baby carrots
2 jars turkey gravy
2 boxes cornbread stuffing
1/4 c butter

DIRECTIONS
1. Before leaving for camping, cook a small turkey and shred.

2. Butter the bottom and sides of the dutch oven. Pour green beans in first. Add carrots on top. Layer the shredded turkey on top of carrots and green beans. Pour gravy over the two layers. Mix cornbread stuffing according to package directions and add on top of the ingredients and press down to cover the layers in dutch oven. Cut any remaining butter into pats and place on top of stuffing mix.

3. Place over hot coals and shovel some coals on top of the dutch oven. Allow to cook for 20 – 30 minutes until hot and bubbly and the stuffing has browned on top.

INGREDIENTS
2 medium butternut squash (4 to 5 pounds total), chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS
1. Cut off and discard the ends of each butternut squash. Peel the squash, cut them in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into 1 1/4 to 1 1/2-inch cubes and place them on a large greased piece of tin foil. Add the melted butter, brown sugar, salt, and pepper.

2. Bring in all sides of the tin foil and close, making sure there are no openings. Cook in the coals of the campfire for 45 to 55 minutes, until the squash is tender and the glaze begins to caramelize. You can also cook this on a grill, just check periodically to see if the squash is tender.
