Oranges with the peel still on (Enough for everyone)

Honey

Lemon juice (I like those plastic lemons with juice inside best. They’re fun.)

Small knife

Spoon

Cereal bowl

Plate or napkin (paper is fine for both)

 

 

Cut off the top 1/3 of the orange.

This part is a little tricky so be careful not to poke a hole in the orange peel.

Put your knife inside the orange just inside the skin and cut around the juicy orange part that you eat. Then take your spoon and scoop out the orange. It’s OK. The pieces will break as you get them out. Put the pieces in the bowl.

Put the empty orange peel on the plate or napkin. We’ll use it as a bowl in a minute.

To the oranges in the bowl, add one spoonful of honey for each orange and one spoonful of lemon juice.

Stir it all up.

Spoon the orange pieces back into the empty orange peels.

Use the same spoon to eat it.

 

Hot Campfire or BBQ pit or gas grill

Corn on the cob with its leaves still on

Water

Bucket or Big Cooking Pot

 

Fill a bucket or cooking pot with water

Gently open the leaves of the corn without pulling them off. Pull out the corn silk (that’s the little what hairs on the corn)

 

Straighten the leaves back so no one can tell you pulled out the corn silk.

Drop the corn in the bucket or water and soak for 15 minutes.

Get the corn out of the buck and shake it off a little.

Put the corn on the outside edge of your campfire or right on the grill of a BBQ grill or on the grill of a gas grill.

Cook for 10 minutes.

Turn the corn over.

Cook for 5 more minutes.

Hot Campfire or BBQ pit or gas grill

Aluminum foil (my mom says Reynolds Quick Release is best)

Uncooked Meat like chicken or hamburger or steak or fish

Vegetables like onions, potatoes, carrots, celery, peas or whatever you like

Salt and pepper

Shredded cheese

Sharp knife

 

 

Tear off a piece of aluminum foil about 18 inches long (that is the length of two of my shoes)

 

Cut up your meat into bite sized pieces. Remember to curl your fingers in away from the knife when holding the meat and vegetables.

Cut up your vegetables into bite sized pieces.

Put a handful of meat on the foil. You can even mix the kinds of meat, if you like.

Then put as many different vegetables on there as you like.

Sprinkle it with salt and pepper.

If you like cheese, put a handful of cheese on it too.

Fold up the package. Mae sure all ends are sealed the best you can.

Then tear off a new piece of aluminum foil the same size as the first. Put the package that you just folded up on this one and mold the new foil around it to form an animal of your choice. I just made an egg. My mom made some kind of bird. She really likes birds. Some of my friends made sharks, scorpions, ducks and crabs.

Put your animal on the outside edge of your campfire or right on the red hot coals of a BBQ grill or on the grill of a gas grill. Cook for 20 minutes. Have a grown up be sure your meat if cooked all the way before you eat it.
