We loved this dish! Made it on a RV trip. I used the "Mayo" type salad dressing. There seems to be some confusion on what type of salad dressing to use. It worked great! Came out nice, tender and full of flavor with a touch of a crispy texture. I made sure and turned the package (made only one there is just two of us)every 5 minutes to prevent burning. Served it with steak and recipe #227213 and for dessert we had recipe #73724. Great night eating and RV'ing---Thanks, Audrey M for posting.

These were served aside steak; awesome grilled potatoes. I used bottled Kraft Greek Vinagrette for the dressing and red skinned potatoes. The only thing I will do different next time is place all the potatoes in one aluminum pan, covered with foil and uncover to flip the taters from time to time or flip the packets over from time to time. I found that the potatoes on the bottom of the packets were a bit overdone. Now that summer is over (waaa!), I'll have to try these in the oven; and for next summer's grilling season, I'll be looking forward to making these again. Thanks for posting!

These were okay, but what salad dressing do you normally use? I would like to try different tastes.

Love the recipe - they came out moist and had a golden tinge (not all browned but definately golden parts). I love the garlic flavor and the Paprika (I used Hungarian hot Paprika). I prepared the packages in the early afternoon and popped them in the oven 45 minutes before dinner - Thanks Audrey M for a keeper

I changed the ingredients a little bit: used olive oil and Vegetable Supreme instead of the spices and dressing and yukon potatoes instead of regular potatoes. This was absolutely fantastic! My husband and I thought this was restaurant quality and it paired very nicely with grilled salmon and asparagus. Thank you for a great recipe!

I am a mother of three and live in central Pennsylvania. My children were very active in after school activities and found we weren't spending anytime together at meal time. In 1998, I decided to start cooking my dinners in a crockpot so that we could have a home cooked meal together once everyone came home. My children now get so excited to see what we are having to eat and love the smell when they walk in the door. My family calls me the crock pot queen. LOL I use my crock pot everyday of the year. My three children are now in college and before they come home they request their favorite meal. I still continue to cook in the crock pot for my husband and I. It is nice after a long day to know your meal is ready. It also helps in keeping my grocery bill down. With zaar, I can print my shopping list and that is all I purchase is the ingredients on that list. Now, my two daughters have been crock pot cooking while in college. They find it is easy to cook for the themselves and their friends. It is an easy way to have friends over for dinner after classes I still love trying new recipes and purchasing cookbooks, especially crock pot cookbooks. Happy Cooking!
