12 Delicious Foil Packet Recipes

11:32 AM


When I was growing up, my dad used to make a meal he called Hobo Pies, which was a foil packet meal with meat, potatoes, mixed vegetables and seasonings, all rolling into a neat foil packet and placed in the oven. So, when I was trying to think of a meal to make on our propane grill for our practice camping trip, that was the first meal that came to mind. It worked so well and was so mess free that I went in search of other foil packet recipes to gather in preparation for our family camping trip. You can cook a foil packet in the oven just as well as on the grill, so if you don't have any camping plans, you can still take advantage of these great recipes!

    That one is next on my must make list Crystal. I made the taco chicken this past weekend on our camping trip and it was a big hit with the boys.

    My mom and aunt used foil packets all the time on our camping trips. It's a fond memory for me.
