Tin Foil Dinner


Ingredients:

1 can cream of chicken soup
1 bag frozen diced hash browns
1 bag matchstick carrots
frozen hamburger patties, slightly defrosted
zucchini, sliced,
summer squash, sliced,
onions, diced
salt
pepper
garlic powder

Optional:

BBQ Sauce
Ketchup
Shredded Cheese

Directions:

Make a double layer of aluminum foil approximately 12 inches in length.

Lightly spray foil with non-stick cooking spray

Break apart hamburger patty and place in the center of the foil. Add about 1/2 cup (or more) hash browns, carrots, zucchini, squash on top of patty. Add onions, to taste. Liberally add salt, pepper and garlic powder. Spoon a heaping tablespoon full of cream of chicken soup over top.

Tightly close the foil together making sure there are no openings. You might have to add more foil. Wrapping it neatly will make it easier to open when done.

Grill on Med/High until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Turning two-three times.

Remove from heat and serve. Add BBQ Sauce, Ketchup or Shredded Cheese if desired.

Serves ~ 4
