Foil Dinner

Idea from my friend, Rebecca

hamburger patties
tater tots
carrots, sliced
onion, sliced
broccoli
gravy
heavy duty foil

Spray a sheet of foil with cooking spray.  Place the hamburger patty in the center of the foil.  Top with about a desired amount of tater tots(I did about 12), carrot slices, onion slices and broccoli pieces.  The tater tots are genius because they cook more quickly than potato slices.  I topped this with a little gravy.

Fold the sides of the foil together, leaving a little room for steam in the packet (create a little tent basically).  Toss on the grill or coals.  I think ours took about 20 minutes.  This is one the kids will love!

Update: I made this again recently. For my foil dinner I used salmon, sweet potato fries, onion, salt and pepper, broccoli and carrots. I thought it was great and more to my taste than beef and tater tots. And if you omit the gravy this dinner is gluten free.

One son wanted to eat outside on the ground "like in the olden days." We spread out towels on the back patio and ate on the ground! We had a great time!
