Burger and Veggie Packets

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Prep Time: 15 min
Start to Finish: 35 min
Makes: 4 servings

1 pound extra-lean ground beef
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
2 cups frozen sugar snap peas, carrots, onions and mushrooms (from
1-pound bag)
32 frozen steak fries (from 28-ounce bag)
4 Green Giant® Nibblers® frozen half-ears corn-on-the-cob
1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper

1. Heat oven to 450º. Cut four 18x12-inch sheets of aluminum foil.

2. Mix beef, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic pepper and the
onion powder. Shape mixture into 4 patties, about 1/4 inch thick.

3. Place 1 patty on each foil sheet about 2 inches from 12-inch
side. Top each with 1/2 cup vegetables and 8 steak fries. Place 1 piece
of corn next to each patty. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper over
vegetables (sprinkling 1/8 teaspoon on vegetables on each foil sheet).
Fold foil over patties and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making
tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again. Allow space on sides for circulation
and expansion. Place packets on large cookie sheet.

4. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until patties are no longer pink in
center and juice of beef is clear. Place packets on plates. Cut large X
across top of each packet; fold back foil.

Substitution:
If you don’t have garlic pepper, use 1 teaspoon seasoned salt or 3/4
teaspoon salt plus 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.

Success:
Use extra-lean ground beef so veggies won’t cook in too much beef juice.
In some stores, extra-lean may be called “diet-lean.”

Re: Burger and Veggie Packets

I bet these could be done over a campfire for camping too! I remember my SIL doing something like this years ago.
