Ingredients for Keto Sausage Veggie Foil Pack
As always, this is a quick overview of the ingredients you will need for this recipe. For the complete recipe and instructions just keep scrolling. Aside from sheets of aluminum foil you only need a few ingredients to make these low carb foil pack dinners:
- Sausage: Smoked sausage, Andouille Sausage, or Kielbasa all work well. Just check the carbs.
- Vegetables: Broccoli, Red Bell Pepper, and Red Onion
- Olive Oil and Cajun Seasoning
- Pepper-Jack cheese
How do you make Keto Foil Packs on the grill?
- Heat gas or charcoal grill to high heat, about 400 degrees.
- Cut 4 (12×12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil.
- Combine the veggies, olive oil, and Cajun seasoning in a bowl. Toss to coat.
- Divide the veggies among the 4 sheets of foil and then add 1 cup of sliced sausage on top of the vegetables.
- Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion.
- Place packs on grill, cook 7 minutes. Flip foil packs and cook 7 more minutes.
- Carefully open packs and sprinkle each pack with 1/4 cup of shredded Pepper-Jack cheese. Using tongs tent the foil over the foil pack allowing the cheese to melt. Cook 2-3 more minutes and remove from heat.
How do you make Sausage Broccoli Cheddar Foil Packs in the oven?
Simply follow the exact same steps for the grill option, just preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the foil packs on a baking sheet before cooking.
Do I have to use the Sausage Veggie Foil Packs in the oven?
Short answer, no! The foil packs give you perfectly tender, steamed vegetables, but you can also put these ingredients on a baking sheet for crispy roasted broccoli instead.
If using the sheet pan method, I recommend waiting until the last 6 minutes of cooking to add the cheese so that it’s nicely melted, not overcooked.
