Hearty Breakfast Bake

This meal is a big hit with our family and friends.  Every breakfast food that you love is included.  Eggs - check.  Hash browns - check.  Sausage - check.  Even better, you dump it into your dutch oven and just let it cook on the coals of your fire.

The downside is that you have to get a fire going and then get the coals hot enough to cook, and then it needs to cook a while.  Basically, you have to plan your breakfast ahead of time or have something for the kids to tide them over until breakfast is ready.  I usually have some zucchini bread hanging around for just this reason.

A tip, get yourself some parchment liners for your dutch oven, like these.  You'll be happy you did when it's time to clean up.
