• In a medium bowl, gently mix together the ground beef, bread crumbs, and French onion soup mix until well combined.
• Lay out 6 large rectangles of heavy duty aluminum foil, about 20 x 12 inches (50 x 30 cm) each.
• Place about 6 potatoes and 4 carrots on a piece of foil. Season with salt and pepper. Form about 5 ounces of beef mixture into a patty and place on top of the vegetable pile. Fold the foil over and crimp the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

BURGER AND VEGGIE FOIL PACKS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°. Cut four 18x12-inch sheets of aluminum foil.
• Mix beef, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic-pepper blend, the onion powder and salt. Shape mixture into 4 patties, about 1/4 inch thick.
• Place 1 patty on each foil sheet about 2 inches from 12-inch side. Top each with 1/2 cup vegetables and 8 steak fries. Place 1 piece of corn next to each patty. Divide remaining 1/2 teaspoon garlic-pepper blend among vegetables. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.Place packets on large cookie sheet.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F. Place packets on plates. To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil.

VEGETABLE BUNDLES

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the thyme and oregano sprigs, along with the garlic, wine, chicken stock, and lemon juice and zest. Allow to boil down, about 5 minutes.
• While the broth is cooking, layer 2 zucchini ribbons vertically. Add 2 string beans, 1 squash quarter and 1 asparagus horizontally. Roll the zucchini ribbon up to create a bundle. Do this for the remaining ingredients. Add each bundle gently to the pan with the broth. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, spooning the broth over each bundle.

VEGGIE BEEF BUNDLES

Steps:

• Coat four pieces of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square) with nonstick cooking spray. Place 1/2 cup potatoes on each square. Shape beef into four patties; place over potatoes. Combine soup mix and water; spoon half over patties. Top with mushrooms, green beans and remaining soup mixture.
• Fold foil around meat and vegetables and seal tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and potatoes are tender.

SPRING VEGETABLE BUNDLES

Steps:

• Trim both ends of onions - making sure the green tops are as long as possible - at least 7 to 8 inches long.
• In a saucepan, bring some water to a boil, add the green onion tops; boil for 1 minute or until softened. Drain and immediately place onion tops in ice water. Drain and pat dry. Chop white portion of onions and set aside. (I always do a few extra onion tops -- just in case any tear as I'm tieing it around the bundles).
• Divide asparagus, peppers and carrots into 12 bundles. Top each with a thyme sprig. Tie each bundle with a blanched onion top (into a knot).*.
• In a large skillet, place wine or broth, chopped onion and vegetable bundles. Bring to a boil. Cook uncovered for 5 to 7 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender and liquid is reduced by two-thirds. Carefully remove bundles with a slotted spoon to a serving platter (or individual plates). Add butter to skillet; cook and stir until melted. Spoon over bundles.
• Note: Use asparagus spears that are ¼ inch in diameter. Larger spears should be cut lengthwise.
• Note #2: I have also used fresh green beans -- they work great, but the if you substitute them for either of the peppers, the color isn't quite as attractive. But for someone who doesn't like asparagus, that would be a good alternate.
• *I secure the bundles with a thin rubber band and then tie the onion top around it (then cut away the rubber band). I also don't place the thyme in the bundle until after I have them tied.
