Recipe Of The Month! - “Hobos”

This was a campfire favorite when our sons were in Scouting, but it works equally well when cooked in the oven!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lb beef round steak (1/2 thick cut in thin strips) 1 (10 oz.)
  • pkg. frozen peas & 1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen carrots or 2 (10 oz. pkg. of corn)
  • 4 to 6 medium potatoes pealed and cut into quarters
  • 1 (10 1/2 oz.) can of condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 envelope (about 1 1/2 oz.) onion or mushroom & onion soup mix

This recipe makes a dinner for four people so divide the food accordingly. Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Tear off 4 pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil (18×15in). On the center of each piece place as many potato quarters as you think each person will eat, then your choice of peas & carrots or corn. Next, top each dinner with 1/4 of the round steak. Stir together the mushroom soup and the soup mix; spoon 1/4 of soup mixture over the top of each dinner. Seal each package securely. Place on a baking sheet. Bake for 50 min. Pour into individual bowls & serve. A fun campfire dinner, but even better when made in the kitchen—no mosquitoes!
