Dilly Vegetable Foil Packets

Appetizers and Sides

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

We go camping up north quite a bit. It’s not really camping, this thing we do, because we are spoiled with a trailer, a generator and a lot of really modern conveniences. One of the things that I really don’t have in the camper is a lot of food prep space or opportunity so I usually plan and prepare ahead of time, taking food with us that is marinated, seasoned, ready to be grilled, assembled and ready to eat. One of our favorite things to have while camping are Dilly Vegetable Foil Packets. These are easily assembled and transportable. They cook up on the grill alongside whatever else we’re cooking and they are delicious. Fresh veggies, fresh dill and butter. Completely customizable too. Yum!

Preparing the vegetables is the most time consuming part of these packets but also allows you the freedom to choose what to put into them. We almost always use potatoes, celery and onion but anything that you like can be added. If corn is in season, I buy one ear of corn and cut it into coins. It is a great addition. Zucchini is another veggie that sneaks in pretty often. Whatever you choose to put in, you’ll want to make sure that the more dense veggies (like the potatoes and carrots) are cut into bite sized pieces so they don’t take forever to cook. Once you have the veggies prepared, get the campfire going, start the grill or preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Cut four even foil sheets, about 12×18 inches each, and lay out on a flat surface. Divide all of the vegetables evenly between the four foil sheets, placing in the middle of each sheet. Top each with two sprigs of fresh dill, a tablespoon pat of butter and salt and pepper to taste.

Fold the foil up on the long sides first and seal together, then seal each of the ends, creating a packet.

Cook on the campfire, the grill, or in your oven until the potatoes are tender, usually around 30-40 minutes. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
