What Are We Making Monday? Foil Pack Scalloped Potatoes

What are we making Monday? Well, this might not be a full dinner, but my Foil Pack Scalloped Potatoes definitely deserve their shine in the spotlight.

We love the flavors of this Foil Pack. Potatoes, bacon, onion, and cheese…pretty much describes all the best things in life!

Another perk is the foil pack…meaning less dishes! Who doesn’t love that?

They are so versatile too. If you’re grilling, these can be easily paired with burgers, brats, chicken, fish. If you’re baking in the oven, throw them in with a meatloaf, a ham, chicken, or fish. It will prove to be an amazing side to your meal.

What Are We Making Monday? Meat and Potato Burritos

What are we making Monday? Well Meat and potato Burritos, of course. This was inspired by a Taco Johns menu item. With savory chicken, (or beef), their perfectly seasoned potato ole’s, ooey gooey nacho cheese, combined perfectly with cold and crisp lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. So this is my version of this delightful meal.

I used to always make this with chicken, but once I tried it with hamburger (or ground turkey), I’m not sure I’ll go back. They are both delicious in their own right. Try them both and see what you think.
