We love, love, love campfire dip! This cheesy campfire dip is a staple in all of our planning and the family requests that we have it all the time, even at home.
So last time we were camping I decided to spice it up a bit with the addition of this delicious homestyle chili. Total bonus that this recipe is just as easy to create as the original!

We love how easy these kind of campfire dip meals are to prepare. I love how easy clean up is after!
Tips for making foil packets:
- Cut two pieces of aluminum foil large enough to cover the entire meal (about 12″). Layer them one on top of the other. Optional: spray the interior with non stick spray or line with parchment paper.
- Place recipe ingredients in the center. Bring up the longer edges of the foil and fold together. Grasp one end and roll it up, repeat with the other end.
- Alternatively foil pie plates may be used to cook foil packet meals. Simply place the recipe ingredients into the pie plate and cover with aluminum foil before cooking.
- For best results cook the foil packet on a grill over the open fire.
- Use caution when handling the foil packet as it can become hot while cooking.
