Best Ever Campfire Potatoes

I am getting sick of the same-old, same-old grilled items over and over.  I also know that my kids are sick of the same old stuff as well (awe, we are having hotdogs AGAIN?!).  I came across this potato recipe on the Favorite Family Recipes blog.  It looked easy and delicious and it looked like something my kids would dig so I gave it a shot today and it was a real big hit!  The best part was that the foil potato packets can be personalized to each picky eaters particular like of the day.  Bacon and cheese for my one son, scallions and cheese for my other.  I tasted some and they were so good I would consider adding broccoli or something else for myself sometime.

I wasn't able to get a good picture of the meal so here is a picture provided by Favorite Family Recipes.

Ingredients

• Potatoes, scrubbed and cut into bite sized pieces (we keep the potato skins on)
Ranch Mix:
• 1/4 c. mayonnaise
• 1/4 c. sour cream
• 1 dry packet Hidden Valley Ranch mix
Optional Topping Ideas:
• ham
• bacon
• sausage
• onions
• peppers
• broccoli
• your favorite cheese

Instructions

• After potatoes are washed and cut, combine the ingredients for the ranch mix. Use just enough of the mix to thoroughly coat the potatoes and stir together in a large bowl.
• Spoon potatoes out onto individual aluminum foil squares and sprinkle with desired toppings. We did cheddar and bacon for one, and gorgonzola cheese and bacon for the other.
• then wrap the potatoes up in the foil so they are completely covered. We usually wrap each one in two pieces of foil.
• Bake, grill, or cook in a fire pit. It is ready to eat when you peel back some of the foil and potatoes are fork tender and break apart easily.
