Olive Oil, Margarine or Butter use enough so the items inside will not burn on the grill this needs to cook for almost an hour so don’t be shy.

Season to taste with: Black Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Chile Powder, Paprika, Sea Salt don’t be shy with the seasoning even if you think it’s way too much. Although, I would not go overboard with the sea salt.  In general the more the better, but with this recipe it’s all up to you!

Step 7: Remove from grill dish up and Enjoy!

Some ideas for changing it up; you could put some ground beef in the packet, you could use a ranch or taco seasoning mix to spice it up, you don’t have to use parsnips or any of the different vegetables if you dislike them, you can use it as a side dish or even add some portabella’s for a main vegetarian dish.
