Hobo Knapsacks
When our children were small, I invented this recipe to take along on trips to the park. We'd grill the packets, then eat the meal right from the foil wrap!—Ann Millhouse, Polo, Illinois

Reviews
This is a fabulous way to enjoy vegetables. It's really good! Kids love "hobo" foil packs.
This idea is great for camping also. Very easy to cook on the fire!!We use several combinations and make to each person's on taste!! Add meat, veggies, seasonings, cheese! Wrap it up and give it an hour or so turning a few times.
