POTATOES IN FOIL ON THE GRILL

A very simple recipe that many probably have their own version of, but wanted to share anyway.  And record, too, I guess.

Ingredients:
8 medium potatoes
2 small onions
8 tsp butter
2 tsp minced garlic
Lawry's Seasoning Salt
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
Pepper

Wash and cut potatoes into wedges, taking out any bad spots.  Cut onions into slices.  Pile potatoes and onions on to a large piece of foil.  Spoon butter onto potatoes in different spots.  Also spoon minced garlic onto potatoes.  Sprinkle with seasonings.  Mix around to get everything covered in spices.  You could also add olive oil instead of butter, but I didn't think of that today.


Turn up sides to make a kind of bowl/container and add more foil to the top.  Seal all sides.


Cook on grill for about an hour or until potatoes are done.

Serve hot with butter, seasonings, sour cream, gravy, ketchup, etc. Whatever your family prefers.  Jesse and the kids mash them up and put sour cream on them.  I like to dunk them in ketchup like fries.

PEANUT BUTTER RICE KRISPIE BARS My mother always put peanut butter into her Rice Krispie bars. When I made them when I was older I had to guess each time how much.  I finally figured out what worked and wrote it down so it wasn't a guessing game. People compliment me on these all the time when I bring them places.  They are not as cloyingly sweet as some Rice Krispie bars can be.  First, I always use the original Kellogg's Rice Krispie bar recipe, never a generic version.  The other versions tend to have the same amount of marshmallows, more butter,  but less rice krispies making them sweeter (to me, anyway).  I don't care what brand of rice krispies I use, I buy whatever is cheapest, but it has to be the original Kellogg recipe.  Second, I always add the peanut butter. They are just so much better that way! Because of the peanut butter, when I bring them places, I always tell people there is peanut butter in them (or label them) because people don't expect p

FIRE CRACKERS I got the recipe from here:  http://www.food.com/recipe/fire-crackers-423316 1 lb unsalted saltine crackers (4 sleeves) 1 cup canola oil 1 (1 oz) package ranch dressing mix 2 tbsp crushed red pepper flakes 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder Line crackers on ends (like dominoes) in an air-tight container. In a small bowl, mix oil, dressing mix, peppers and garlic powder.  Stir until ingredients are well mixed.  Continue to stir to prevent the peppers from settling on the bottom of the bowl. Spoon mixture over crackers, like drizzling icing on a cake. Close lid tightly and flip the container over every 5 minutes for 20 minutes.  Lightly shake back and forth to make sure all the crackers are coated.  Store in a Ziploc bag.  Will keep for about a week. Pretty tasty!  Jaqi & Jesse like them too!
