Mrs. Mik, thanks. The Mountain Man breakfast does look good.
Anybody have suggestions for switching to freshly shredded potatoes? "Wring" them out or do the frozen have even more moisture? Adjust cooking time/ "temperature"?
tgt, another vote for the Blueberry Stuffed French Toast. Thanks.
Thanks,
Bob

We do this same type of thing when we go with a group. This is what I do for breakfast:
Crock Pot egg bake (cooks all night)
Cinnamon rolls (made in RV oven-just the ones in the refrig tube roll) or make them at home and put them in a container)
Bacon/Sausage - sometimes both
Cheerios (sometimes kids just want something simple)
fruit
milk
juice
Dinner:
Taco's-Make meat/taco seasoning ahead at home and freeze, after cleaning out crock pot from breakfast, throw in taco meat for the day.
Taco fixings (Lettuce, cheese, sour cream, taco sauce, onions, tomatoes, black olives, shells-dorritos in a small bag, soft shells or hard shells).
Hope that helps! Have fun!!

I've used both freshly shredded potatoes and the bag of Simply Potatoes (found in the refrigerated section) with my version of this dish. I don't wring them out. As for the cooking time, I can't really say, I just cook them until they're the way I like them.

How about Burmese Stacki-Uppi. I've fixed this for a large group.
Burmese Stacki-Uppi (approx 10 serv)
1 large box minute rice
2 large stewed chickens or 8 breasts cut into chunks
2 quarts of gravy
4 -5 fresh diced tomatoes
1 cup green onions, sliced fine
2 large cans chow mein noodles
celery diced
1 lb. grated cheddar cheese
1 can mixed nuts. chopped
1 large can crushed pineapple
1 pkg. coconut toasted lightly in oven
soy sauce
1 large bag of hot peas and carrots (frozen)
1. Make gravy from chicken (or buy canned gravy at Smart and Final stores) Or, 3 cans chicken broth thickened with corn starch
2. Order of serving: Place the various dishes in the following order on the serving table.
Don't try to serve chicken hot, just the gravy and rice are hot. (I prepare the chicken ahead and shred and freeze before the camp out.) Everything except the gravy and rice can be prepared a day or two ahead. Nothing is salted extra.
This is the entire meal. Serve coffee and a simple dessert.
Order of Serving:
Rice
Chicken
Chicken gravy
Chinese noodles
tomatoes (fresh)
onions
celery
carrots and peas
cheese
pineapple, drained
nuts
coconut
soy sauce
Members go down the line and stack on their place what they wish.
For dessert I served slices of angel food cake with a lemon yogurt sauce.
Lemon yogurt, powdered sugar to sweeten, lemon juice and lemon zest. You could add fresh strawberries if in season.

I've also made this that I call:
Mexican Pile Up (sort of a taco salad)
I mix the cooked meat, and salad type of ingredients in a 'dish pan'
I put the tortlla chips on a plate and top with the meat/salad mixture and then let them put on their own toppings.
more chips, salsa, sour cream. shredded cheese, sliced olives, green onion sliced, hot sauce etc etc.

Thanks, I tend to time things that way too.  I've never used the frozen ones. But I did try some dehydrated shredded taters once. I don't recommend those.

Smoked Sausage & Potatoes. MMMMMMMM!
Cut the smoked sausage into 1/2-3/4" chunks. Place in skillet with cooking oil. Add cut up onion. Add garlic powder, salt & pepper to taste. Saute' until sausage is thoroughly heated and slightly browned.
Remove sausage from the skillet and hold. Add sliced potatoes and continue to cook until potatoes are cooked but still have a slight crunch to them.
Add the sausage back and mix all ingredients together. The potatoes pick up the flavor of the sausage.
Amounts of each ingredient depends upon the quantity you need to prepare. The dish is very flexible so you can have fun with it. Your guests will love it. You can include some yellow mustard as a side. Many like to dip their sausage in it as they eat.
Hint: Begin with a minimum amount of cooking oil because the sausage will give off its own fat. Add oil as you find necessary to properly coat the potatoes. This is a good dish to cook over an outdoor gas or charcoal grill. The Garlic and pepper really enhance the flavor of this dish. Be generous with both.
Enjoy and have fun!

We just returned from a group campout a few weeks ago. We always have a potluck where everyone brings a side dish and we cook the entree. This time we did Stone Soup and just like in the story I went around and gathered different veggies from everyone and used a nicely CLEANED lake stone. I also added some stew meat I'd been marinating. Cooked the soup over the campfire using our tripod for several hours. The meal was rounded off with toasted french bread, salad, and 2 DO cobblers.
We are getting ready to go on another group campout on the 25th of this month (we only go for the weekend) and this time I'll be cooking hamburgers and kielbasas over the campfire while the rest of the group contributes the sides
As you can gather we like to do our community meal outside and we tend to experiment alot. We've done foil packet meatloafs, lots of DO meals, and last campout I broke out our pie irons to make stuffed french toast (like IHOP"S only better) over the campfire for our departure day breakfast. That was the first time the pie irons had been used and now Hubby is looking to purchase several double pie irons and some round ones to try to make waffles with.

Omelet in a bag - now that's a great idea!!!!! What a fun way to get everyone involved. Can't blame the cook for a bad omelet. We're definitely going to give this a try on our next outing.
Thanks Donna
