Can I add cheese?
Yes! There’s nothing better than cheesy potatoes. Use your favorite shredded cheese and add to your packets immediately after they’ve finished cooking. The packets will be steamy and hot, so be careful adding your cheese.
Beef and Potato Tips:
The secret to the most juicy, tender meat and potatoes is to not overcook the meat. Not an easy task when you’re trying to get your potatoes to cook all the way through! Make sure to cut your potatoes small enough and parboil before adding to your packets to make sure both beef and potatoes are finished cooking at the same time.
Veggie Options:
You can really add any of your favorite vegetables to your foil packet dinner. If you are adding root vegetables, make sure to parboil first before adding to the packet. Some of our favorite veggie additions are sliced mushrooms, bell pepper strips, and onion rings.
Spice Level:
The jalapeños add a delightful heat to this dinner, but you can always remove ribs and seeds from your jalapeños to reduce the heat.
Make Ahead Instructions:
You can get your packets ready up to 24 hours in advance, and store in the fridge until ready to cook. If you are planning to camp and cook over a fire, simply prepare your packets before leaving and transport in a cooler with ice.
