Breakfast Nest: Prepare one thin sausage patty made from lean country sausage, place on foil; add 3/4-1 cup frozen hash browns creating a nest in center; add one egg to the nest, wrap. Sprinkle with grated cheese just before serving.
Ranch Chicken: Dip one boneless, skinless chicken breast in melted butter then in 1 packet Ranch dressing mixed with 3/4 cup corn flake crumbs and 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, place on foil. Add sliced strips summer squash and bell peppers, wrap. Sprinkle with grated cheese just before serving. (NOTE: One packet dressing mixed as above will coat 4-6 chicken breasts)
Traditional Foil Dinner: Place thin hamburger patty in center of foil. Add thinly sliced carrots, potato cubes, and rings of onion, salt and pepper to taste, wrap. Sprinkle with grated cheese just before serving.
Seasoning Variations: Try one or more of the following: garlic salt, season salt, lemon pepper, 2-3 tablespoons cream mushroom soup, Italian seasoning, BBQ sauce, sprinkle Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, curry, steak sauce, etc (experiment)
Foil and Cooking Tips:
Use heavy-duty aluminum foil, place shiny side in, spray with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
Create foil packets by wrapping foil around food using a drug-store wrap: Use foil 3-times the width of the food. Fold sides up creasing foil at edge of food. Keeping edges together, make a 1/2”- 1” fold and crease. Fold 2-3 times – leaving enough room in packet for food expansion and steaming during cooking. Smooth ends flat, make four small triangle folds on each end from edge of food to the edge of foil. Fold ends of foil in using 1/2” folds.
