It is a lot easier, quicker and neater if you put all the food on half the tinfoil then pull the other half over the top so the two halves meet one one side. You then roll the edges as you would if it were on top. To open you simply slit the packet down the middle and you have a easy neat serving bowl.
I found you while searching for better ways to wrap and seal with tinfoil . Fellow Albertan!!😃 Still searching as I wrap mine the same way as you do. Not a problem just wishing there was a clever idea but I have found that heavy duty tinfoil is the game changer. Love the idea of parchment paper also !!! . just a friendly tip, buy some cheap welders gloves at Princess auto so the forearms don't get burnt while turning packets in the hot fire.
My mom would always make tinfoil dinners for my first night on Scout camps. They were great and the other guys were always jealous of them since they would usually have just a can of soup.
Going camping in September! I can't wait to try the chicken pineapple and apple crisp! Gonna make the crisp now so I can have it frozen and ready too! Fantastic Ideas!!! Thank you!

Those were all such great ideas and I imagine even easier if prepared and foiled then refrigerated or frozen ahead of camp. Thanks!

My husband will appreciate the gloves. What a great idea for a birthday gift.

She would do a layer of foil, then newspaper, and then another layer of foil.
Thank you for these ideas. My teens are just realizing the challenge of meal planning with limited supplies.
It really does require some creativity, when making meals. Glad I could help. ❤️

Hi Keri!
I am wanting to do a boneless chicken breast with small taters.
How long is the cook over coals?
30 min each side?
Here’s a recipe similar to that!

Fantastic!
Thanks!
I see there was dark discoloration on the parchment paper. Did that give the food a slight burnt paper flavor?
I didn’t notice it.
👍Looks delicious!! Could you give approximate oven temperature and time for a retired camper?
My go to temperature is 350F and I would suggest 20 mins. (Just make sure your meat is smaller in size, so it cooks quicker)
Was the meatballs precooked? I just wanted to make sure.
Yes, the meatballs were pre-cooked.
What happens if you don’t use parchment paper in your tin foil meals?
Just spray the tin foil with pam, cooking oil, butter, or coconut oil. Just something so the food doesn’t stick to the tin foil.
CAN THEY BE PUT INTO THE OVEN IF NOT GOING CAMPING ?
100% YES 👍🏼
why parchment paper? thanks
Things don’t stick, and then you don’t need to grease it either. 😃
Yes, great idea! I've never seen anyone use it for tinfoil meals. It makes so much sense. Thanks.
