• Season each chop with salt and pepper and place 1 chop on top of onion and potatoes on each square.
• Nest 1/2 cup of the peas between the carrots on top of the chop in each bundle. I use the carrots to corral the peas.
• Mix soup and milk and divide equally, pouring over peas and carrots.
• Season lightly again with salt and pepper.
• Pull up corners and seal foil tightly. Tightly, no vents!
• Place in 375 degree oven for 1 hour 15 minutes.

• To form bundles, bring short sides of foil together; make several 1-inch folds. Fold open edges of foil to seal.
• When grill is heated, place bundles on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill over medium coals; cover grill. Cook 18 to 20 minutes or until pork is no longer pink in center. Carefully open bundles to allow steam to escape.
