I am buying a reflector oven from CanoeCountry and now I am in need of some recipes to try out. I know you can cook just about anything in a reflector oven that can be cooked in a normal oven but are there things that work better than others? Is there something I MUST try on my next trip? Whats your favorite?

We made a box mix of scalloped potatoes and added some spam. That stuff was good.

So many lakes, so little time

Wouldn't dark pans work better in a reflector oven?

During cooking the thermometer on the top of the oven read 350 deg. That was perfect cooking temp. I don't know if a black pan would have worked better but this one worked fine.

I like add-water-only muffin mixes, but rather than using muffin cups, I put it in a round cake pan. I call them muffin cakes. :) I just cut them in triangles. I've also had good luck with cornbread made from corn muffin mix.

I use a 8" or 9" round pan for all my baking.

I also like Bisquick Complete Biscuit Mix. It's add-water-only and they make a few varieties.

Brownies never seem to work for me.

If you pick blueberries, you can make a pie!!!

Mash up some twinkies and bake at least several hours, they will taste the same as if you just opened the package.

The only thing to fear is getting eaten by bears and mosquitoes

I made this on our May trip for a hungry group of 4. We were base camping and I really wanted to use my new reflector oven.

Cook 1 Pkg. of Stove Top Stuffing as per instructions
Grease, Butter or Spray a 9" X 9" foil cake pan
Fill pan with cooked stuffing, level and push to edges
Top with what ever you like. I used rehydrated bulk Jimmy Dean sausage, rehydrated mushrooms, green peppers, and onions
Pour 8 scrambled eggs over everything
Drop some grated cheese on top
Cover with foil and bake, turning 1/4 turn every 15 min. until eggs are done.

You could use powdered eggs, I used farm fresh.
I also dehydrated all other ingredients myself.

It sounds like a lot of work but it really is not.
Very filling, tasty, and light weight if you have the time.

This might be offend real chefs, but my kids favorite item is the tube of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls. I freeze them before trip and pack them with the frozen steak and we eat them the 2nd or 3rd day.
