Dump Recipes
Dump Recipes are quite simple and extremely easy!
The directions are easy! Just pour the ingredients into a bag with chicken, pork or beef. Freeze. When you take the bag out from the freezer you will either dump it into the crockpot or dump it into a baking dish (some can even be dumped into a frying pan and cooked on the stove top if they are cut into chunks). 350 for 20-40 minutes depending on the size of your meat.
I have tried most of these or I want to try them soon! So far I loved all of them! And so do the kids. Makes a easy meal that is quick too! Even if you forget to take it out, you can submerge the bag in cool water in the sink for 20-30 minutes and it should be defrosted to send to the oven/cookery.

Porcupine Meatballs
Ingredients:
2 pounds lean ground beef
2/3 cup uncooked long-grain rice
1 egg
1/2 cup chopped onion (or Onion Powder for those picky eaters)
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper
1-2 Cups Prepared Spaghetti Sauce
(For cooking you will need an extra jar of spaghetti sauce and extra cooked rice- enough for meal)
Directions:
Combine the ground beef, uncooked rice, onion, egg with salt and pepper. Mix well then add in slowly some spaghetti sauce. Only add enough spaghetti sauce so that you can still shape the meat into balls and they won't fall apart. Save any remaining sauce.
Freezing:
Put in Freezer safe container side by side or Flash freeze and place in Freezer Bag. Store in the freezer up to 2 months.
Two Options for sauce: First option is to put the sauce in with the frozen meatballs and freeze together. Then just defrost together and add to pan and continue with Cooking Directions. Option 2 is to freeze the meatballs separately from the sauce and add in the sauce when you are ready to cook.
Cooking:
Defrost. Place meatballs in a skillet and cover with spaghetti sauce. Cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes or until meatballs are cooked thoroughly. Serve over white rice and garnish with green beans.

Chicken Packets
Makes 1 chicken packet
1 Chicken Breast
2 Tablespoons Honey
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
2 Tablespoons butter
Thinly Sliced onion
Thinly Sliced zucchini and Squash
Thinly Sliced Potatoes
Thinly Sliced Carrots
Salt and Pepper
Foil
Place the chicken first on a long 2 foot piece of foil. Top with veggies then fold foil up-ish to make a bowl shape so the Worcestershire doesn’t run away. Poor Worcestershire, honey and butter on top. Seal by folding the foil into a packet. Cover again with another piece of foil and Write on the top of the foil a T for top (So you will know when you cook it not to leave it on its top for long or at all). Put in freezer Zip Locks and store in freezer until you are ready.
To cook while camping… make a bed of coals and place defrosted chicken packets (TOP FACING UP) on the hot coals. Depending on how hot your coals are your dinner will be done in 25-45 minutes. Have extra foil on hand if you open the packet to check done ness and need to rewrap (Or you can use a meat thermometer and stick it right thru the top into the chicken careful not to poke all the way thru!). The best part of this camping meal is that when done you can slit the top and eat right out of the foil. You can turn the packets over a couple times if you prefer but they should cook just fine just being placed on the coals (carefully move them around when there are hot/cold spots so that one doesn’t get over done or underdone.
