Burrito Bowl Foil Packet Meal

Print Recipe

Burrito Bowl Foil Packet Meals make a great camping meal! They are inexpensive, flavorful, healthy, simple, and their ingredients do not need to be refrigerated - perfect for the end of a camping trip when ice is running low!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Bell Peppers - sliced
  • 1 medium onion - sliced
  • 1-2 jalapeños - sliced (optional)
  • 1-2 tomatoes - diced, for serving
  • 1 ripe avocado - diced, for serving
  • 1 jar of salsa - your fave
  • 1 can black beans
  • 1 package ready rice (precooked rice)
  • 6 Tbsp oil (I used canola)
  • Shredded cheese - optional but we had it on hand
  • Spices (whatever you have on hand): I used
    • garlic powder
    • onion powder
    • chili flakes
    • cumin
    • smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Cut the veggies into slices and lay out 10 pieces of foil about a foot long (for 5 packets).
  2.  Assemble the packets: add 1/5th the can of beans, rice, peppers, onions, jalapeños to the packet. Drizzle with oil, season with spices, top with 2 tablespoons salsa, and mix!
  3. Bring the end of the foil to meet and crimp the ends of the foil together, rolling inward to create a seal - like making a calzone. (see video above)
  4. Repeat step above with second sheet of foil for double reinforcement before throwing into the fire!
  5. Make 4 more packets using above steps.
  6. Place packets onto fire coals or portable stove and cook for 15 minutes, turning 7 minutes in.
  7. Open carefully, top with tomato, avocado, cheese, and more salsa and serve immediately!

Notes

- add whatever protein you want to this recipe and adjust cooking time as needed. You can use two cans of black beans if you would like!
