Vegan Sausage and Potato Foil Packets

Need a good camping/meal prep meal? These Vegan Sausage & Potato Foil Packets are for you! Simply take the ingredients, put them inside a self made foil packet, and cook with whatever means you have! They are healthy, filling, low- waste AND easy to clean up. Plus, you can prep them ahead of time!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium onion (any color)
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 package baby potatoes (or 3-4 regular potatoes)
  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 2-3 tsp garlic powder
  • 2-3 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2-3 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2-3 tsp black pepper
  • 2-3 tbsp kosher salt
  • 2-3 (OR whatever other spices you have, cumin, etc)
  • 1 roll heavy duty aluminum foil

Instructions

**You can pre-prep these before camping so all you have to do it throw em on a fire**

  1. Rip 8-10 foil sheets about a foot long (this will make 5 packets). 
  2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Quarter potatoes and add them to the water. Cook 10-15 minutes until potatoes are “al dente”. This speeds up the foil cooking process. 
  3. While potatoes cook, cut onion and bell pepper into strips. Slice veggie sausages into ½ inch slices. 
  4. Once potatoes are cooked, assemble the packets.
  5. Lay 2 sheets of foil on top of each other. Add ¼ cup of potatoes, sausage, pepper, onion to bottom half of the foil. Top with a hefty drizzle of canola oil, salt, pepper, and sprinkle spices (or whatever spices you have on hand). 
  6. Mix everything together - then bring the ends of the foil to meet and crimp the edges together, rolling inward to create a seal - similar to making a calzone. (see video above)
  7. Repeat this step with the second piece of foil - to give double reinforcement before they go into the fire!
  8. Place the packet onto fire coals or a portable stove and cook, turning occasionally, for 10-15 minutes. Pull one out, carefully open it up and make sure potatoes are cooked/sausage is hot. Cook 5 more minutes if needed.
  9. Open up and enjoy straight away!

Notes

- you can prep these at home so all you have to do is toss in a fire/on the campstove!

- use whatever protein/veggies you like/have on hand!
