Camping Hot Dogs Recipe for the Campfire
What’s a camping trip without amazing food by the fire? If I opt to go camping, 9 times out of 10 it’s for the food! When we can’t actually go camping, our family loves to have “camping” nights in our backyard. That way, we can cook all the flavorful camping foods we’re craving without having to brave the great outdoors. I get my favorite parts about camping and still get to sleep in the comfort of my own bed. Win!
