Grillin’ & Chillin’

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:

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). :)

The green beans were steamed to perfection from the water in the frozen veggies!
