CAMPFIRE FOIL PACK BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil.
• Put the potatoes and pepper out on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the oil over the vegetables and toss along with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread the vegetables out in to a single layer on three-quarters of the baking sheet. Crumble the sausage on the remaining quarter of the baking sheet. Roast until the potatoes are fork tender and the sausage is cooked all the way through, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely. Pack into a large plastic re-sealable bag and refrigerate up to overnight. Pack in a cooler. (Make sure to pack all of the other ingredients and equipment too.)
• Build a medium campfire (if there is a grate for cooking then go ahead and use it).
• Make the foil packs: Cut eight 15-inch pieces of nonstick foil. Stack 2 pieces of foil, place your hand in the center and fold the sides up to create a shallow bowl. Repeat with the remaining pieces of foil so you have 4 bowls total. Put a quarter of the potato-sausage mixture in the center of each bowl. Crack the eggs into a quart-sized glass mason jar and shake well to scramble.
• Divide the eggs evenly among the bowls. Fold the sides over the fillings to create a seal. Place the foil packs directly onto the coals of the fire, or on the grate above the fire, and cook, rotating with tongs every few minutes until the eggs are set, about 10 minutes. This could take more or less time depending on the strength of the fire, careful of steam you can open the packs to check while they cook. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 minutes so you can handle the foil.
• Open each packs and flip the mixture out onto the middle of your tortillas and top with Cheddar, hot sauce, salsa, scallions and sour cream.

CAMPFIRE BREAKFAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place a Hobo Pie toaster in the hot coals of a campfire to preheat for a few minutes.
• Butter both slices of bread, then place one slice, butter-side down into the toaster. Crack the egg onto the bread, and break the yolk. Top with a slice of cheese and the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
• Close the toaster, and place into the coals of the fire. Cook for several minutes, turning frequently, until the bread has browned nicely on both sides.

BREAKFAST FOIL PACKS WITH HASH BROWN POTATOES, SAUSAGE, AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Cut 12 (12x16") pieces of heavy-duty foil. Layer 2 pieces of foil on top of each other to create 6 stacks. Line top pieces of foil with parchment paper cut to the same size.
• Toss scallions, potatoes, sausage, oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Divide mixture among prepared packs, arranging in the center of each piece of parchment. Bring edges of foil together to enclose each pack, covering completely, then crimp to seal packs closed.
• Prepare a campfire or grill for medium, indirect heat, preferably with hardwood or hardwood charcoal. Let coals burn until covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining.
• Place packs side by side directly onto hot coals or grill and cook, rotating with tongs occasionally, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove 1 pack from heat and check if ingredients are steaming hot. If necessary, return pack to coals and continue to cook, 5-10 minutes more.
• Transfer packs with tongs to a flat surface and carefully open them (they will be full of hot steam). Top each pack with spinach, then crack 1 egg into the center of each and season with salt and pepper. Reseal, return to coals, and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes.
• Carefully remove packs from coals, open, and sprinkle with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.
• Do Ahead
• Packs can be assembled and chilled for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
• Cooks' Note
• Packs can be prepared in an oven. Preheat to 450°F and place packs on rimmed baking sheets. Bake until steaming hot, about 15 minutes if packs were refrigerated and about 30 minutes if baking frozen packs (no need to defrost). Carefully open packs (they will be full of hot steam), top each pack with spinach, crack 1 egg into the center of each, season with salt and pepper, and reseal. Return to oven and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes more. Top with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.
