Cheddar Bacon Potato Packets

Ingredients:

4 medium potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes

4 tbsp. butter

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup cooked & crumbled bacon

2 green onions, sliced

salt & pepper to taste

This recipe is really to taste. Use as much (or as little) cheddar cheese as you like for each one.
We like a lot of cheddar cheese on ours. 

Also, to save time, you can use those prepackaged bacon pieces or microwaveable bacon.

Directions:

Preheat grill to medium heat (make sure grates are clean).

You'll need 4 large squares of foil to make these packets.

If you aren't using nonstick aluminum foil, you'll need to make sure you spray the foil really 

well with nonstick cooking spray to keep potatoes from sticking while cooking.

Place cubed potatoes on each of the 4 aluminum foil squares.

Add 1 tbsp. butter to each pile of potatoes.

Sprinkle with salt & pepper, to taste.

Cover potatoes with about 1/2 cup shredded cheese and 1/4 cup bacon pieces.

Wrap foil securely around potatoes.

 My foil piece wasn't large enough on this one so I ended up having to place another small piece of foil on top.

Pierce foil with a knife several times to vent steam while cooking.

 Place on grill (only 2 shown here).

Cover and cook over medium heat for about 45-60 minutes until potatoes are tender.

Once potatoes are finished, sprinkle with sliced green onions.

This makes 4 very generous servings.

A large potato might be enough for 2 people to share.

Cook's Notes: These can be made in the oven as well. Place packets on a baking sheet in a

375F degree oven for about 45 minutes (until potatoes are fork tender). 

Enjoy!
