Happy Friday evening all!
Ben and I started the night out right with a good, old fashioned grill out and made Foil Packet Dinners!
Ingredient choices included:
- Cherry tomatoes (from my Mom’s plants!)
- Fresh green beans
- Turkey breast
- Yellow & green zucchini
- Sliced potatoes
- Frozen vegetables
First I sprayed a big length of heavy duty foil with some non-stick spray and layered on my potatoes and frozen veggies:
Then I layered on both types of zucchini and some fresh green beans – all from my Mom’s friend’s garden!
My third layer was cherry tomatoes from my Mom’s plants (thanks ma!) and some hunks of lean turkey breast.
I seasoned everything liberally with veggie grill seasoning, garlic powder and some olive oil based salad dressing, then sealed ‘er up tight.
We placed the foil packets on the grill, setup camp on the back deck and patiently waited with some beer (for him) and wine (for her).
Plates are ready!
20 minutes later – packets are up!
The potatoes were perfectly seasoned and crispy from the dressing.
The green beans were steamed to perfection from the water in the frozen veggies!
The zucchini tasted garden-fresh…probably because it was!
The aftermath…a foil graveyard!
Dessert was Australian Licorice, of course! So sad…between Ben, myself and a few pieces eaten by Ben’s Dad – we’ve almost cashed the whole bag.
That’s how good this stuff is!
Off to enjoy this BEAUTIFUL Friday – I hope you’re doing the same!
