<\/a><\/div>Foil dinners<\/strong> are a long time favorite over the fire.\u00a0 They are easy to make, easy to cook, and you can eat them right in the foil, so there isn't much to clean up.<\/p>\n

My standard dinner includes hamburger, potatoes, carrots, onions, and rice.\u00a0 You probably have a standard foil dinner as well.\u00a0 Here are 12 things you can do to change your foil dinner:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Try different meats in your foil dinner, such has steak, chicken, sausage, kielbasa, pork chops, fish.<\/li>\n
  2. Marinate the meat before adding to your foil dinners.<\/li>\n
  3. Try different vegetables, like corn, tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, cabbage leaves, sweet potatoes<\/li>\n
  4. Try some fruit.\u00a0 Pineapple slices with chicken can be very tasty.\u00a0 Slice apples can add a wonderful flavor to pork.\u00a0 Lemon slices with fish<\/li>\n
  5. Try different spices.\u00a0 Consider onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasonings, curry, chili powder, Mrs. Dash, seasoned salt, seasoned pepper, salsa, garlic cloves, dry onion soup mix, bay leaves.\u00a0 There are a bunch of different types of seasonings available at your local grocery store.<\/li>\n
  6. Liquid seasons can help also.\u00a0 You might like Worcestershire sauce, Heinz 57, barbecue sauce, ketchup, teriyaki, soy sauce, or Tabasco sauce.<\/li>\n
  7. What about dressings?\u00a0 Try Italian dressing for a spiced up flavor.\u00a0 Crush up some bouillion cubes and sprinkle on your foil dinner before cooking.<\/li>\n
  8. Different soups can had a great taste.\u00a0 Adding a dry onion soup mix is great.\u00a0 Or try a few tablespoons of cream of mushroom or cream of chicken.<\/li>\n
  9. Make a stir fry with some chicken, snow peas and other vegetables, stir fry sauce, and rice.\u00a0 Seal the whole foil dinner up except one end.\u00a0 Poor some water into that end so that the rice gets steamed.\u00a0 If you get the right amount of water for the rice, this works great.\u00a0 Make sure to have your foil dinner sealed up tight, so that water doesn't leak out.\u00a0 If it's going to be a while before you cook, you can try ice cubes instead of adding water.<\/li>\n
  10. Make foil dinner fajitas with marinated chicken or beef strips, onions, peppers.\u00a0 Serve on tortillas with cheese.<\/li>\n
  11. Hash browns, scrambled egg (uncooked), and\u00a0sausage patty can make a great breakfast meal.<\/li>\n
  12. How about the packets of seasonings that you can get for different kinds of sauces and gravies?\u00a0 Try Au Jus, gravy mixes, buffalo wings seasonig mix, pot roast seasoning, meat loaf seasonings, etc.\u00a0 Check out the seasoning packets at your grocery store.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
