MILITARY FAMILY NIGHT

Here are some fun ideas for a Military Family Night!

Its always important to spend time with your family. Why not set 1 night a week and plan a family night!! Each week I will list ideas and military discounts I found to make it an affordable night!






Week 1

CAMP FIRE DINNER NIGHT:
1. Tinfoil dinners: Take hamburger meet, hotdogs or chicken mixed with your choice of chopped potatoes, corn, carrots, onions, peppers, ect. (If using chicken its best to slightly pre cook before placing in tin foil) Add butter or a small amount of soup to add flavor and moisture.

Wrap all of your meets and sides in layers of tin foil 1-2 layers about 12 inches by 18 inches long.

Heat up hot coals in a fire, get them hot and red!
Dig a small hole about 6 inches deep and place hot coals on the bottom of the hole. Place tinfoil on the hot coals(meat at the bottom to cook faster) and put dirt back on top of the tin foil wrap. This will create an oven for your tinfoil dinner.



Or if preferred you can place tinfoil on the coals near your fire and surround with coals. Flip and turn it often if you choose this route.

Let it cook for about 20-40 minutes until meat is cooked and potatoes are soft.

Pull out of ground or off coals to check meat and potatoes. If cooked, add salt, pepper, cheeses, salsa or ketchup for extra flavor.

BON APPETIT!
