Featuring seasoned ground beef (or your choice of protein), diced potatoes, carrots, bell peppers, and onions, this recipe combines fresh and colorful ingredients into convenient foil packets for a complete meal with minimal cleanup. Infused with the smoky flavors of paprika, garlic powder, and a touch of olive oil, these foil packs cook to perfection over a grill or campfire, creating tender, savory bites in just 30 minutes. For an extra layer of indulgence, top with melty shredded cheese right before serving. Whether you're on a camping trip or grilling in the backyard, this all-in-one meal is a satisfying, family-friendly favorite that brings both flavor and convenience to your outdoor adventures.
Lay out 4 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil on a flat surface.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef (or protein of choice), diced potatoes, sliced carrots, chopped bell peppers, and diced onion.
Drizzle the mixture with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning.
Divide the mixture evenly onto the center of each foil sheet.
Fold the foil sheets into packets by bringing the edges together and sealing tightly to create an airtight seam.
Place the packets on a grill or directly over campfire coals. Cook for approximately 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and the meat is fully cooked.
Carefully open the packets (watch out for steam!) and, if desired, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Let the cheese melt for a minute before serving.
Enjoy your all-in-one camping meal directly from the foil for minimal cleanup!
