Like my recipes for Sausage and Vegetable Foil Packet, French Dip Foil Packet and Cheeseburger Hobo Packets. This time I went for a totally kid friendly option with these Meatball Foil Packet Meals! They have Tater Tots so it’s automatically a win, plus I snuck in some vegetables so Mom feels like she’s winning too!

You can even prep these and freeze them right in the foil so you are ahead of the game if you like to do freezer meals!

Breakfast and dessert in a foilpacket? Yes, we can do that too Cinnamon Monkey Bread and Campfire Apple Crisp Foil Packets. I’m telling you…. foil packets are the way to go!

Why? Meals are already portioned out. They are easy to cook, taste delicious and clean-up is a snap!

What makes these Meatball Foil Packet Meals so delicious? Um… tatter tots, meatballs and cheese. Are you hearing me? ‘Nuff said! ?

I’m a firm believer tater tots make the world go round. The kids love them! They will clean their plate (or packet in this case)! Which makes my life a ton easier! And shhh…. don’t tell…. I even sneak some veggies in there! Rock Star Mom!!

Grocery List for Meatball Foil Packet Meals

• Frozen homestyle meatballs 
• Frozen mixed vegetables
• Tater Tots
• Seasoned salt
• Sharp cheddar cheese
• Tinfoil

How long do you cook foil packets on the grill?

The packets will be placed directly on the grill and cooked for 30 minutes until the meatballs are hot and steaming and tater tots are golden crispy brown!

Can you freeze foil packet meals?

Actually you can, portion the meatballs, tater tots and veggies between the different sheets of foil. Add the seasoning salt. Seal well and tuck them into the freezer. Open and sprinkle on the cheese before tucking them on the grill.

Steps to make Meatball Foil Packet Meals

1. Preheat the grill 350 degrees or prepare your campfire. 
2. In a bowl mix together all ingredients.
3. Measure out eight pieces 8” x 12” of heavy duty tinfoil 
4. Spray with nonstick spray. 
5. Divide the mixture between the foil sheets. 
6. Fold each piece of foil up into a packet and seal.
7. Set the packets directly on the grill and cook for 30 minutes.

Don’t forget if you’re not out camping or want to toss these on the grill these can be made just as easily in the oven. It’s a great meal if you’ve got a houseful and want a quick and easy meal. And don’t forget these can be made in advance! Oooh and before I forget, if you love meatballs? Try this!! BBQ Smoked Meatballs
