Foil packet cooking is the perfect method for summertime! Each packet can be customized to fit each person’s taste, and they can be cooked over a campfire, on your backyard grill, or even in the oven. By combining the ingredients together and topping them with butter, the flavors combine and a beautiful sauce is created. The best part is once you are done eating, the foil is discarded and no dishes need to be washed. Now this is the way to relax and enjoy the summer!
