To put it simply, some people need to think for themselves. To learn things in life we have to fall down from our hardships, learn from them, and get to our feet again. People aren't just going to spoonfeed you on how to live your life.
To conclude, I'm a level-minded columnist who's not likely to judge.

To people who are "not the brightest crayon in the box", I may appear blunt and brutally honest. Stupid questions deserve stupid answers.
And yes, stupid questions DO exist.

My friends and I are going camping in Summer- has anyone got any nice, healthy vegetarian recipes that can be cooked over the fire? Also, how do you cook things over an open fire? Thanks.

There are a wide variety of vegetarians, which one are you? Pesco, vegan...etc? I'm going to assume you're an all veggie person so here's my advice :)
A yummy and simple veggie recipe you can do on an open fire is roasting vegetables. What you do is you chop the vegetables in big chunks (or roast whole) and drizzle extra virgin olive oil to coat them and add some desired herbs (thyme, rosemary, etc.; personal preference) and salt and pepper. You can also add lemon juice and garlic. Then you get l-o-n-g kabob sticks and "thread" the vegetables through. Roast on an open fire and remove when tender and lightly scorched. Be sure if you use wooden kabob sticks that you soak them in water before you use them!
Also you can make quick and easy baked potatoes. Just wrap potatoes in aluminum foil and place in a light fire (or grill preferably) until fork tender. Add desired toppings like sour cream, butter, bacon bits, chives, be creative!
Another recipe is roasting corn. You could either use kabob sticks (preferably metal) or do the same with the baked potato and wrap it in foil. But season it first and then wrap it in foil. My favorite corn seasonings is pepper, herb butter, topped with parmesan cheese.
You can also cook vegetable soup/stew. You would need a pot and a type of stand for your pot to stand over the fire. As for recipes, you can just use canned soup, my favorite being Progresso.
I hope this helps and have fun!
