This Pot Roastis one of the most delicious Dutch oven camping recipes you’re ever going to find. And I can say that because I’ve made it so many times. My family loves a good pot roast with potatoes and carrots, and at home,I prepare it in my slow cooker. Since I can’t do that at the campsite, imagine our delight when we found this recipe.

The meat gets juicy, and the potatoes and carrots are soft and easy to mash. I like to put a little bit of butter on the vegetables. And the best thing? The entire meal can be made in one pot.

7. Dutch Oven Pineapple Upside Down Cake

This Pineapple Upside Down Cake tastes excellentstraight out of the Dutch Oven, which surprised me a little. I was afraid it would be too crunchy on the bottom. But it wasn’t. It came out fluffy and moist and had tons of flavor.

Camping is a special treat, and that’s why I like to bring along some things my kids don’t get to eat all the time. The tricky thing here is that this cake has pineapple, so it’s slightly healthy and gets some fruit into everyone’s body in a yummy way.

8. Dutch Oven Lasagna

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (9)

This is one of my favorite Dutch Oven camping recipes because Cheesy Lasagna makes everyone happy. My family asks for lasagna at least once a week and going camping doesn’t change that. If you’re wondering whether the noodles get all crunchy, wonder no more. Because they don’t.

A heaping plate of this Dutch Oven lasagna is perfect with a tossed salad and a chunk of garlic bread, which you can prepare before you leave and cook on the fire wrapped in foil. Who said anything about roughing it?

9. Dutch Oven Potatoes

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (10)

These delicious Dutch Oven Potatoes are the perfect thing to serve with hamburgers and hot dogs. And since I have such an affinity for potatoes, it’s always been one of my favorites. And what makes potatoes just a little bit better? Why a heap of melted cheese, of course.

Here’s what else is so delightful about these potatoes. You can whip them up in the morning and serve them with an egg. Then you can reheat them at lunch and dinner. And I love a meal I can cook once and eat several times. Sprinkle some sliced green onions on top for a nice bit of crunch and spice.

10. Dutch Oven Cheesy Garlic Bites

No one is going to be able to stop eating these mouthwatering Cheesy Garlic Bites. Especially if you are serving the lasagna or chili mentioned above. The dough is super easy to make, and you can sit back and enjoy your family while they bake.

I love these because they’re super filling and sometimes keep my kids from asking for a snack for at least a half an hour.

Barbecue Chicken and Potatoes cooked over a fire taste out of this world. There’s just something about that flavor imparted when you eat a meal in the great outdoors. And chicken and potatoes are easy to transport to the campsite, and once cooked, can be leftovers the next day.

I think one of the reasons this dish is so tasty is because of the sauce. It coats everything, so there’s a burst of deliciousness in every bite.

16. Dutch Oven Enchiladas

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (17)

These Dutch Oven Enchiladas have a delightful spicy flavor that makes camping something to love. Enchiladas are another favorite of my family, so I was excited to find out they turn out well in a Dutch Oven. No soggy tortillas or tasteless meat here.

The sauce has a delightful flavor that is perfectly offset by the cheese and enough is going on in here to fill everyone up for the night. Make it a bit healthier by serving it with sliced veggies or a salad. You’re going to love it!

18. Dutch Oven S’mores Cake

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (19)

You can’t call it camping until you’ve enjoyed some gooey S’mores. Are you with me? But making S’more the old fashioned way is messy and sticky. And unless you have a shower handy, that means going to bed covered in chocolate and marshmallows. No thank you.

The Dutch Oven to the rescue! This S’mores cake is just as good as the real thing and is so much easier to eat. Just scoop it straight from the pan with graham crackers as you sit around the fire telling ghost stories. Everyone’s going to bed happy tonight!

The beer lends a nice taste to the sausages, and the peppers and onions turn it into a full meal. I love to make this after a full day of hiking, but it makes a great lunch option too. I usually serve it with chips because they don’t need to be cooked.

You’ll love the flavor, but you’ll also enjoy how easy this is to prepare. Serve it with egg noodles that you’ve made at home or with baked potatoes cooked over the coals. If you want to turn your camping trip into a glamping trip, don’t forget to bring some white wine to enjoy with this meal.

21. Dutch Oven Chicken Cordon Bleu

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (22)

This Chicken Cordon Bleuis fast, easy and will make everyone happy. It’s great because you eat it as is, but you can also pile it on bread for a sandwich. The sauce keeps the chicken moist and is like gravy so if you have the means to make mashed potatoes, by all means, go for it.

I think what makes this so wonderful is that no one expects to be able to eat a meal like this when the only way to prepare it is over a campfire. So it’s amusing to surprise the crowd when you open the Dutch Oven and invite everyone to dig in.

22. Dutch Oven Corn Casserole

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (23)

Enjoy this creamy Corn Casserole as a filing and crowd-pleasing meal or serve it as a side dish. Either way, you’re going to impress yourself with how great this tastes. If you want to make it a meal, throw in some sliced hot dogs or beans and cook it the same way.

This meal is one of my go-to choices for lunch around the campfire, and I usually serve it with a fruit of some type. A couple of bowls of this and my kids are ready to get back to digging in the dirt and hunting for deer bones. So do yourself a favor and add this to your list.

Fresh strawberries are ideal with this, but any fruit will do. I tend to serve this on our first morning because nothing tastes better on the side than a glass of milk, which will stay cold in the cooler for just a day or two. And you can use gluten free bread if you so desire. Perfect!

27. Dutch Oven Rustic Herb Loaf

30 Super Easy Dutch Oven Camping Recipes for Your Best Outdoor Trips (28)

Dutch Oven Bread is great for serving with meals, but it also tastes pretty great on its own. My kids love to snack on this while they run around the woods. It’s fine plain, but is really wonderful slathered with butter. I make a couple of loaves right away and store them for eating with the rest of the trip.

You can toast this over the fire and serve it with eggs for breakfast or slice it and serve it alongside the chili, goulash or pot roast mentioned above. Really, you can’t go wrong with bread so eat it however you see fit.

28. Dutch Oven Chicken Pot Pie

As you can probably tell, I love one pot meals and this is one of the best. It has vegetables and meat so it’s a complete meal that you can spoon right from the pot to the plate.

I was so excited when I found this recipe because chicken pot pie is such a comfort food and it’s great for warming bellies on a cool night. And as you know, the temps can drop fast in the mountains, so it really pays to have something to keep you warm until the sun comes back up.
