Ingredients

14 ounce package kielbasa smoked sausage , sliced into 1/2-inch thick coins
1 pound baby yellow (or red) potatoes , halved or quartered (each piece should be no bigger than 1-inch in size after being cut)
1 pound green beans , ends trimmed, cut in half if very long
8 ounces cremini mushrooms , cleaned, halved
1 medium sweet onion , peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic , minced
3 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste
5 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

If using the OVEN; preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. If GRILLING, prepare the grill by heating to medium-high (450 degrees F.)
Cut 6 large sheets of heavy duty foil (about 12-inches wide by 18-inches long.) Coat foil generously with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, toss together all the ingredients.
Divide mixture evenly into 6 equal portions (about 1 1/2 cups of filling) and add to the center of each sheet of foil.
To seal the foil packet, bring the short sides together in the middle and gently fold down over the ingredients, leaving a little space for steam. Then roll up the ends to seal closed.
Place foil packets on the grill and cook for 25-30 minutes (flipping halfway through), OR bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until veggies are crisp tender.
(Test only 1 packet at a time; every time the packets are opened, the steam is released so it will take longer to cook.)
Serve immediately and enjoy.
COOK IN A BAKING DISH INSTEAD: If you’d prefer not to make individual packets in foil, you can still make this recipe! After Step 3, dump the mixture into a 10x15 baking dish coated with cooking spray, cover with foil, transfer to the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
