The very first time I made a Vegan Hobo Dinner was on a campfire, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make this in the oven.

It is such a simple and easy meal that anyone can make!

Customize your Hobo Dinner and enjoy any of the seasonal vegetables you can find and mix it up every time you make it.

One of the best times to make Hobo Dinner is in late summer or early fall because of the fall harvest!

Some other vegetables to throw in

Fresh Mushrooms
Brussels Sprout
Squash
Asparagus
Egg Plant
Sweet Potatoes
Zucchini
Radishes
Corn on the cob

With the hobo dinner there really is no limit to the variety of things to add.

So have fun experimenting, it’s a great way to try out new vegetables.

Ingredients in this Hobo Dinner

Potatoes – Any type of potato will work for this dinner. I have tried many different varieties such as Red, gold, russet, sweet, fingerling, and new potatoes. Any potato will work, choose your favorite.
Carrots – Switch it up by try the different varieties such as the purple, yellow, white, or the easy to find orange carrot.
Broccoli – This edible plant is part of the cabbage family. This doesn’t have to be added to the hobo dinner, it can be switched for another vegetable of choice.
Onion – Another vegetable that does not have to be in this hobo dinner. But it does give the dish added texture. Try the different varieties available in your area, such as yellow, white, red, sweet, pearl onions, leeks, or a shallot.
Garlic Cloves – A perfect way to make this hobo dinner more customized for everyone eating this dinner is to use the whole clove. This way it will be easy for the garlic lovers to find the garlic.
Peppers – Any color or variety of pepper will work in this recipe. I always use bell peppers for my hobo dinner.
Oil – I used olive oil in this dinner, any oil or vegan margarine will work just as well.
Seasoning – Salt and pepper. Try different spices for this hobo dinner, such as rosemary, thyme, oregano, paprika, chili, cayenne, basil, or any mix of your families favorite spices. There really is no limit.

A Great campfire meal!!

This is called Hobo dinner because you can make this on a camp fire as well as in the oven. When making it on a camp fire, place all the ingredients into foil and replace the oil with butter or margarine. Wrap it up and place into a fire, check periodically about 20 to 30 minutes, or until carrots are tender, unwrap and enjoy!
