Campfire Recipe for Pizza Log from HappyMoneySaver
Basically you’re going to make a pizza but roll it to form a rectangle. You will roll it to keep pizza’s ingredients sealed within the dough (like rolling a cinnamon roll). Wrap the pizza in foil and freeze. You can keep the frozen pizza in your cooler to help keep other things in the ice chest cool. It will thaw naturally and be ready for the campfire by dinnertime.
Start with any pizza dough from your own recipe or buy a pre-made dough found in the freezer or refrigerator section of your grocery store. Spread as much pizza or tomato sauce (adding oregano or basil for seasoning, possibly garlic powder). Then sprinkle 8 oz of mozzarella cheese on it, then add your family’s favorite toppings on it.
When camping, cook the pizza wrapped in foil by placing it on the grill or logs for 25 minutes. You’ll want to flip it often. When done, you unwrap and serve your campfire pizza.
ENJOY!
