Foiled Again

Camp It Up!

Foiled Again

Nothing beats the convenience of aluminum foil; from baking to storage, it’s like a Swiss army knife in the kitchen. And this product comes in handy even more at a campsite, where it can be easily utilized to cook delicious meals and minimize cleanup.

So prepare your foil meals in advance to bring with you. Simply take some foil, add cooking spray, fold the long ends together into a pouch (making sure to leave room for steam to accumulate), and add the foods below. Store your camping creations in a cooler and, at your campsite, place them on a grilling grate, and cook.

Before you know it, you’ll be eating a delicious outdoor meal—and truly enjoying your taste of the outdoors!
