    List of Ingredients





    1 pound small red-skinned potatoes, scrubbed
    4 to 6 cloves garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
    Assorted fresh vegetables, such as green beans, broccoli, summer squash, carrots, and cherry tomatoes
    Salt and pepper
    Chopped fresh basil or pesto
    3 to 4 tablespoons butter
    1 1/3 to 2 cups chicken broth

    Recipe



    1. For each helping, shape a 16-inch-long piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil into a bowl. Cut the potatoes into bite-size pieces and pile some in the center of each sheet. Add a chopped garlic clove to each pile. Cut or snap the vegetables into bite-size pieces, then add them to the potatoes and sprinkle on salt and pepper.

    2. Add 1 tablespoon of fresh basil or pesto to each packet. Top with a thick pat of butter and pour 1/3 cup of chicken broth over the veggies.

    3. Seal the packets tightly, then place them on the grill over the fire. Check the packets after 10 to 12 minutes, being careful to avoid escaping steam, to see if the vegetables are tender. If not, reseal the packets and heat for another few minutes.


    Makes 4 to 6 servings.

    This recipe is also good as a complete meal by adding a turkey or hamburger on the sheet first, then adding potatoes, carrots and onions and garlic glove, salt and pepper along with your beef broth to help keep it moist. My Mom use to fix this for use when we went camping. It was the bomb! Everything in one place.....easy cleanup! And we ate our vegetables!
