Ingredients

    3 LARGE cans of diced potatoes or 8 cups raw
    3 cans of peas
    1 cup chopped onion
    3 pounds extra lean ground beef
    4 cups low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
    Cavendars' Greek Seasoning (or any all-purpose seasoning that your family likes)

Directions

This can be done on the stove top (Dutch oven) or over a campfire (cast iron Dutch oven) -- either way, cooking times are about the same (campfire may be faster). Cook ground beef and onion together until all pink is gone. Drain. Add potatoes, peas, cheese and seasoning, mix together and heat through for about 10-15 minutes. Serve with wheat dinner rolls and a salad. Makes 12 one cup servings -- great for company since it makes so much. Of course, you could cut in half for family size portion too.
