Answer 2

This is a fun way to make popcorn the next time you are next to the campfire at your favorite camp site. The kids will love it as well. Make it easy by mixing the spices at home and place them in a small container or a baggie twisted and tied in a knot. This will save you a little packing room for your trip.

9 cups 13 min 5 min prep

1/4 butter or margarine, melted
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
4 tablespoons popcorn oil
1/2 cup unpopped popcorn

Combine the spices and the butter in a small saucepan; set on the edge of the grill or on a stone surrounding your campfire to heat and melt the butter.
Tear off two 36x18 inch pieces of heavy-duty foil; fold each in half to form an 18 inch square.
Fold up sides, using your fist to form pouches.
Place 1/4 cup of the unpopped popcorn in the center of each pouch.
Pour 2 tablespoons popcorn oil over the unpoped corn.
Bring corners together, squeezing tightly to seal edges, leaving room for the popcorn to pop.
Tie a string securely around the tops of the pouches.
Tie each pouch to a long barbecue tool or a green stick.
Hold pouches over, but not touching the hot coals; shake until corn is popped, about 6 to 8 minutes.
Open pouches and pour butter mixture over the popped corn, tossing to coat.

Answer 3

Chili, to either eat as soup (there are throw away bowls that are fairly cheap) or they can put it over their hot-dogs (lots of people like chili on their hot dogs). If you are wanting a really easy sweet treat (this one I usually keep secret, as it is always a hit at any party or get together):

Rocky Road:

In sauce pan:
one bag chocolate chips
add in one can Eagle Brand milk (the really thick stuff)
1/2 stick of margarine
Melt this altogether

In bowl:
One bag of miniature marshmallows
2 cups dry roasted peanuts (I prefer to use the unsalted0

Pour the melted mixture of the sauce pan over the mixture in the bowl. Stir until marshmallows and nuts are well coated. Put in normal size cake pan (I use the aluminum foil pans that can be thrown away), coat pan with margarine (so it doesn't stick), refrigerate until set. Cut into pieces and serve. Have never had anyone who did not like this.

Answer 4

Jiffy Popcorn

Answer 5

Oyster Snackers
2 bags oyster crackers--put in a large bowl.
Mix 1 c oil, 1 pkg Ranch dressing mix, 1T garlic powder & 3T dill weed. Pour over the crackers & stir well.
Store in a ziploc bag.

Yummy snack!

Answer 6

Hmmnnnn....never considered it... I would try fruit..apples peaches, pears, e.t.c. cooked with a fork over the fire should work as a different sort of dessert.

Answer 7
