It takes an already simple meal and makes it even easier and quicker with less cleanup. Which is what you want when camping – less cleaning the better!
This camping dinner recipe is really filling and satisfying after a long day of hiking and playing. As someone who has cooked for many hiking trips, this is one of my go-to meals. It’s definitely one of the best Dutch oven pasta recipes out there!

Final Thoughts
This is my favorite Dutch Oven One-Pot Pasta. Its easy tastes great and healthy particularly with the added carrot and zucchini.
What I also like about this meal, there are only a few items to wash up. The pot, chopping board, plates, and cutlery. The less to clean up the better ! Just be mindful of how you clean up the Dutch Oven. We have another article on this.
