Foiled Again: Portuguese Clambake

The lazy days of summer are approaching. You barely have enough time to cool down every night, let alone cook dinner. What's a gal to do?

Grill it in foil! Food Network Magazine recently had a great insert: 50 Things to Grill in Foil. Our summer meals usually always include potatoes and/or veg in foil...we decided to expand last weekend with a Portuguese Clambake. This couldn't have been more simple. Seriously. It's taking me longer to write this blog post than it did to put this meal together. And, it was way more delicious. Well, maybe not way more.

Portuguese Clambake (we made just half for the two of us)
Toss 2 pounds small clams, 1/2 pound each sliced small potatoes and linguiƧa or andouille sausage, 8 small rounds corn on the cob, 2 sliced garlic cloves, 1/2 cup beer and a drizzle of olive oil. Divide among 4 foil packets, leaving extra room for the clams to open. Grill over medium-high heat, 25 minutes.





We'll definitely be trying more of the 50 recipes...what are your fave things to put in foil?*
