Ingredients

  • cups baby carrots 
  • 0.5 cup breadcrumbs plain
  •  eggs 
  • servings parsley fresh
  • 0.3 cup catsup 
  • 1.5 lb ground beef 80% lean (at least )
  • 0.8 cup milk 
  • oz onion soup mix (from 2-oz box)
  • bag potatoes refrigerated (1 lb 4 oz)

Equipment

  • bowl
  • grill
  • kitchen thermometer
  • aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Heat gas or charcoal grill.
  2. Cut 6 (18x10-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray. In medium bowl, mix beef, dry soup mix, egg, milk and bread crumbs. Shape into 6 loaves, 4x2 1/2x1 inch.
  3. Place 1 loaf on each foil sheet; top each with about 1 tablespoon of the ketchup.
  4. Place about 1/2 cup potatoes and 1/2 cup carrots around each loaf.
  5. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  6. Place packets on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 25 to 30 minutes, rotating packets 1/2 turn after 15 minutes, until vegetables are tender and meat thermometer inserted in center of loaves reads 160F. To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape.
  7. Garnish with parsley.
