Tyler made an easy recipe but there was a lot of peeling and chopping.

Before cooking.


This recipe calls for a plain meat patty but I would add some ketchup, egg and rice or oatmeal and make it into a mini meatloaf. You can add to or delete vegetables.

Hobo Dinner
1 ½ -2 lb lean ground beef 2 yellow squash sliced
2 -3 lg. potatoes peeled and thinly sliced 4 carrots sliced
2 lg. onion thinly sliced salt and pepper to taste

Form ground beef into six patties. Place each on a square of aluminum foil. Place vegetables on top of each patty. Add salt and pepper. Wrap foil tightly around each patty. Place on baking sheet. Bake at 375F for 1 hr to 1 hr 15 min.
