PIZZA FOR REAL
(from Jim Snead)
Food Needs (serves 8 scouts)
 
5  Cups of Bisquick
  Water
2  Squeeze Bottles of Pizza Sauce (or equivalent volume in a can)
6-8 Oz of Pepperoni
1 Pound of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  Any other desired toppings
  “PAM” or other vegetable oil spray
Equipment Needs
 
  Fire (bed of coals)
1  Wire cooking rack
1 Hot gloves
1 Medium pot
1 Large spoon
1 1 Cup measuring cup
1 Heavy-duty aluminum foil
Instructions
  1. In the medium pot, combine 2 cups of Bisquick with ½ cup of cold water per dough ball.
  2. Stir each to make a soft dough.
  3. Bring mixture to a boil; cover; reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.  Stir occasionally.
  4. While rice is simmering, slice sausage into small (1/4”) slices and sauté in butter or margarine.
  5. When sausage is nearly sautéed, add sliced scallions to the sausage and sauté for an additional minute.  Remove from heat.
  6. When rice has finished simmering, add stewed tomatoes or chopped peeled tomatoes, and the sautéed sausage and scallions to the rice.  Cook until the jambalaya is thoroughly heated.
Comments
  1. This is a great cold weather meal;  but you need to avoid having too much in a large pot during frigid weather.  If need be, use two medium pots.
  2. More sausage can be used if you like a meaty dish.
  3. Canned shrimp can be substituted for sausage or mix of the two can be used.
  4. Because I think any “casserole” needs some crunch; chopped celery can be added in step 6.
  5. Instead of tomato sauce and tomatoes used separately.  At time I can find “Tomato Sauce with Tomato Bits”, if found this can be used instead.
  6. On high adventures (say a week long bike or canoe trip), offer the same type meal by using only “Lipton” or anyone else’s pre-packaged rice mixture (jambalaya, dirty rice, etc) and using either canned shrimp or smoked sausage that does not require.
