Grilled Potato Packs

The hubby loves potatoes any way he can get them.  Growing up, in the summer, my mom would make these potato packs with onions, garlic, butter, and Mrs. Dash seasoning and serve it with anything grilled.  It was one of my favorites growing up so I introduced it to the hubby, and he embraced it with open arms and fork at the ready!

Grilled Potato Packs

Serves 6

2 pounds red skin potatoes, washed and diced into 1/4 inch cubes
6 tablespoons butter
Toppings of your choice--bacon, onions, jalapenos, peppers, garlic, spices, cheese (after it's done grilling), sauces like tzatziki, quark, or A1, etc

1. Tear two 2 foot sections of foil off and spray one side with non-stick spray.
2. Evenly place potatoes on the greased side of foil pieces.
3. Add any toppings except cheese and sauce.
4. Top with three tablespoons of butter per piece of foil.
5. Tear another two 2 foot sections of foil and spray one side with non-stick spray.
6. Top potatoes with second foil and rolls ends together to form a pouch.
7. Grill for about 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are done.
8. Open packs VERY CAREFULLY and add cheese or sauces.
9. Serve.

I can see why she made these packs so often--my dad would grill them, and there was no clean-up!  Plus, you can have so many different options with these potatoes making it extremely versatile.
