Camping: Pocket Pizza

A dutch oven recipe our girl scout troop tried at out first Camporee. This can actually be made at home oven and used as simple school lunch.

Ingredients

6 pita breads
1 14oz. can pizza sauce
12 oz. grated cheese
1 7oz. pkg sliced pepperoni
optional: sliced black olives, mushrooms, pineapple chunks, diced peppers, ... (use precooked items since you are just heating it up)

Also required:
dutch oven or aluminum foil
campfire coals
long fire tongs

Steps

1. Cut each pita bread in half to form two pockets and spoon pizza sauce into pocket spreading it evenly.
2. Add 4 or 5 slices of pepperoni, 1 ounce of cheese, and other toppings. Don't over stuff it or it will tear.
3. Repeat to make a dozen pockets.
4. Stand the pockets up in the dutch oven.
5. Put lid on the dutch oven and Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
Note: You can also make these directly in fire coals by wrapping each pocket in foil and placing in coals. Cook for a couple minutes, flip, and cook another two minutes.
