Add this one to your deer-camp list of recipes. It's a handy one-pot meal that can feed a crowd on a few simple ingredients. Don't just save it for camp though, it makes a hearty family meal at home as well. A Dutch oven is the perfect cooking vessel, be it on the campfire, gas camp range, or the stovetop. Serve it with a chunk of crusty bread for a full meal. Add a salad if you are inclined to include something green with your meal.
Total cooking time is just under an hour, so it goes from cooler to plate in a short time. The rich tomato sauce blends with creamy sour cream and gooey cheese to make it a dish the entire family will love. The recipe makes a lot, so cut it in half if you are only feeding a few folks.
