Tip:
Be sure to read the ingredients labels when you buy sausages. Some brands are full of fillers and higher in sodium.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs mini yellow-fleshed potatoes , halved or quartered if large
- 1 small red sweet pepper , cut into 1-in. pieces
- 1 small green sweet pepper , cut into 1-in. pieces
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp chopped garlic
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 lb uncooked Italian pork sausages , cut on the bias into 1-in. lengths
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter , cut into pieces
- 4 sprigs thyme
Instructions
- Preheat barbecue to high heat.
- Combine potatoes, peppers, olive oil, garlic and salt in a bowl, and toss to coat.
- Lay 4 foil sheets (about 12 x 16-in.) on the counter, and divide vegetable mixture equally between them. Add sausages, dot with butter, and add a sprig of thyme, before folding and rolling edges to fully seal packages.
- Cook packets, turning once, for 25 min, or until potatoes and sausages are cooked through, tender and lightly golden.
- Open packets and transfer to plates (or just for fun, serve right in the foil and save on the dishes!).
