Summer in the Northwest wouldn’t be complete without a campfire cookout adventure followed by a night under the stars. But getting back to our primal roots doesn’t mean we have to eat like cavemen. With a little prep work you can upgrade your go-to camping meals from basic hot dogs to gourmet glamping pasta.

Instructions
At Home Prep & Assembly
- Cook spaghetti as directions specify. Cut 12 8x12" pieces of aluminum foil.
- In large bowl, toss cooked pasta with salmon, tomatoes, basil, garlic and a drizzle of olive oil until well combined.
- Place ⅙ of the noodle mixture in the center of cut piece of aluminum foil. Spoon a couple teaspoons of goat cheese on top of mixture, squeeze lemon wedge on top and season with salt and pepper.
- Place another piece of foil on top of mixture and roll up edges to secure pasta inside. Repeat five more times with remaining pasta. Store foil packets in an airtight container in refrigerator or ice chest until ready to cook.
Campfire Cooking
- Place a grill over hot coals. Place pasta packs on top of grill and cook for 5-10 minutes, shaking packets halfway through. Check them often since cook times can vary dramatically depending on the heat level of your campfire. Remove from heat when cheese is melty and pasta is warmed through. Serve Immediately.
