Spring is finally here in the Northwest and I couldn’t be more excited about the nice weather we have had! Ever since the nicer weather started, we have been doing family get-together BBQ’s at least once a weekend. We all love to have quick and easy food to grill so we can enjoy the playtime and conversation. That is why we really do get-togethers with people – so we can talk and the kids can run around like crazy and wear themselves out. With camping season upon us, at the last get-together, we brought foil packet potatoes. They’re super easy to throw on the grill and they turned out amazing

You do not have to peel the potatoes just clean them well. The peel on a lot of vegetables is not only edible but good for you !
