Fast, Camp Corned Beef and Cabbage

I have a fast camp dish for you that can be your "go to dish" the 6th or 7th day out. It is made from caned Corned Beef. Don't turn you nose up. It is vary good. I also fixed a can of sliced new potatoes to go with it. Fast meal and tasted good. I know caned foods have a bad wrap, but it is hard to have fresh meat at camp if you are out for a week or more Give it a try.
I hope you have a great Summer and get a lot of Dutch oven cookin' and camping in.
