    Yield: 8 servings.

    Whenever we go camping, cheesy potato packets are a must. They just may remind you of scalloped potatoes. In the winter, I bake them in the oven. —Denise Wheeler, Newaygo, Michigan *Test Kitchen Approved

    Ingredients:
    • 2-1/2 pounds potatoes (about 3 large), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices
    • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
    • 5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
    • 1/4 cup stick margarine or butter, melted (Imperial or Blue Bonnet)
    • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

    • 6 slices process American cheese

    • Reduced-fat sour cream, optional

    Directions:
    1. Prepare campfire or grill for medium heat. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Place potato mixture on a piece of greased heavy-duty foil (about 36x12-in. rectangle). Fold foil around potato mixture and crimp edges to seal tightly.

    2. Cook, covered, 14-16 minutes on each side or until potatoes are tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Place cheese over potatoes; cook 2-4 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. If desired, serve with sour cream.

    3/4 cup (calculated without sour cream) equals 193 calories, 11 g fat (3 g saturated fat), 17 mg cholesterol, 331 mg sodium, 21 g carbohydrate, 2 g fiber, 6 g protein.
