Easy Foil Pack Dinners!

I decided this week that we have to start eating better! This might just be the healthiest and easiest way yet to fix a dinner and fast! You can do so many different things with these foil pack dinners, but this is what we did last night and they turned out really good and very moist.

Place two or three frozen chicken tenders (I like these because chicken breasts are normally too big for us) on a large sheet of foil.
Sprinkle with your favorite seasoning (I used Bob Tallman's Ranch Rub Seasoning.. you can get it HERE, he has several different seasonings, wich are all really good on anything from veggies to meats!).
Slice fresh squash and green onions, put on top of chicken.

Wrap the foil up like this, to form little packets and place on a cookie sheet or jellyroll pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until done (if chicken is frozen).

Open VERY carefully because they will be filled with VERY HOT steam.
Place chicken and veggies on plate and there's your dinner!
...easy clean up, just toss out the foil!

SOO easy and SOOO healthy and fresh! I think I might do these again tonight, but use some zucchini and a little spaghetti sauce, topped with some light mozzarella cheese!

Other veggies that work well with this: carrots, grated and placed on top of chicken with fresh onions and a little lemon pepper. You can also use fresh red or green peppers with the chicken or you can also do something similar with fresh fish! Oh the possibilities!
