Course Foil Packet, Side Dish
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 3 small red beets sliced, 1/2 cup
  • 20 small potatoes sliced, 2 cups
  • 2 large carrots sliced, 1 cup
  • 1 small sweet potato sliced, 1/2 cup
  • 1 small white onion sliced, 1/2 cup
  • 4 Tbsps butter
  • 1 Tbsp fresh parsley for garnish
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash and slice the root vegetables.
  • Create a foil packet from aluminum foil torn to about 14" in length.
  • Place the vegetables in the center of the foil and top with butter and salt.
  • Seal edges of the packet by pulling up the long sides of the foil and creating a 2-inch fold at the top.
  • Fold up the sides of foil with a double fold to lock in all of the ingredients.
  • Heat grill to medium-high heat and place packets on the BBQ.
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until a fork can easily pierce the vegetables.
  • Open packets carefully and garnish with parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use heavy-duty foil or a double layer of regular foil to prevent tears and leaks.
  • Add a drizzle of olive oil for an extra touch of richness.
  • Cut larger vegetables into smaller pieces for even cooking. Smaller vegetables can be left whole, as long as the pieces are relatively uniform in size.
  • Chop up your vegetables at home, throw them into a large freezer bag, and you’re ready to go when you get to the campground.
  • For a flavor twist, try adding fresh herbs or a few cloves of garlic before sealing the packet.
  • Instead of just using salt and pepper, add a lemon pepper blend, Italian seasoning, or a splash of lemon juice.
  • Sprinkle a little parmesan cheese over everything once the foil pack vegetables are cooked through.
