With the Scouts, I introduced "Camp Pizza"
We used tortillas as the pizza crust. All other ingredients are basically standard, with a few "exotics" (keep in mind cost and kids tastes)
3-5 minutes in a pan or over a fire. Each person can assemble there own with pre-prepped ingredients.
This is a lot of fun to make, and can have minimal clean up !!!

We put a little Pam in first then put a cover on the pan and checked to make sure it wasn't burning from time to time. I think it took about 8 minutes on low heat.

Jon, that sounds good! Did you put a cover on the pan to melt the cheese and heat up the sauce?

My son and I made Pizza on a colemanstove in a fry pan. We used Bobli pizza crusts and sauce, Shreded Cheese and peperoni. It turned out great and we were the envy of the rest of his cub scout pack.

Sandra, we have a kitchen set up that we have used for about 5 years. It's a folding kitchen that has 3 surfaces that you can use either for prep, cookstove, dish washing or all three at once. It also has 2 hanging cupboards. I would love to add a Camp Chef stove (Kathy, I'm jealous! :) ) but so far we just use the old Coleman. My husband is a tarp man, so he covers the area with a nice big tarp. It has worked out well in the past.

Sandra, if my husband and I go camping by ourselves, that is what we pretty much do, but if we are camping with other people, we have a whole kitchen set up. We have Camp Chef two burner outdoor stove, two prep tables, dutch oven table, a sink table that my husband made. Our cooking and serving tools are kept in sets of plastic drawers that are set on one of the prep tables. Oh, and we have a collapsible trash can that we keep in the "kitchen" area. This all goes under an ez set up tent. We get a lot of comments on our kitchen area when we set it up.

Does anyone set up their kitchen any differently than just putting the stove on top of the table, along with all the other cook and serving ware?

In Girl Scouts we learned to cook on an A-shaped fire -- two logs make the legs of the A, a log for the crosspiece (where the fire is made). Set your pot at the top or apex of the A.
