    Hobo Potatoes

    Hobo Potatoes
     

     The recipe is from "Simple Summer Recipes" 1990

    • 2 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed
    • 1 cup chopped onion
    • 1 cup thinly sliced carrots
    • 1/2 cup celery, diagonally sliced
    • 2 tablespoons water
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 8 slices bacon, cut into 2-inch pieces, crisply cooked
    • 2 tablespoons margarine

     

    Prepare charcoal fire for grilling. In 3-quart microwave-safe casserole, combine potatoes, onions, carrots, celery and water.
    Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH for 5 to 6 minutes or until vegetables are hot and just begin to cook, stirring once during cooking. Drain. Stir in salt and pepper.
    Place potato mixture on 18x18-inch square of heavy-duty foil. Top with bacon and dot with margarine. Wrap securely with double fold seal. Immediately place on grill 4 to 6 inches from medium-high coals. Cook 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

    I've cooked a variation of this recipe each summer now for years...who knows maybe since 1990!

    I've even added zucchini or mushrooms -- whatever I have on hand and we've never been disappointed....thanks for the reminder tho'...the hot weather is upon us already!
