Grilled Italian Sausage & Veggie Foil Packets - Healthy Dinner Recipe (2024)

It’s hot and sweaty out there but don’t let that stop you from firing up your grill!

I have a new summer grilling feast recipe for you today courtesy of my ongoing partnership with ALDI, and it’s a delicious one – and easy, too, as always.

A month or so ago I wrote about how Matt likes to make veggies on the grill in foil packets; it’s a trick he picked up from camping, and it does a beautiful job cooking the veggies with no dishes to worry about later.

I’m expanding on that idea today and including your entire meal in the foil packet – hello, easy clean up! Simply toss all the ingredients in a foil packet, throw on the grill, and enjoy.

You know what’s exciting?

Since we moved to Alexandria, we now live near an ALDI! I’m pretty pumped because it was a bit of a haul to get to one previously… although it was all good because ALDI is available on Instacart, and I’m allllll about the grocery delivery situation lately. #momlife 😉

Anyway – all the ingredients for this delicious feast can be found at your local ALDI (here’s a link to find one near you). I love that you can get not only affordable, high-quality produce at ALDI, but also entertaining essentials (like grill tools!) and pantry staples, too.

Here’s what you need for this recipe to come to life:

Feel free to prep ahead of time – you can chop your veggies, potatoes, and sausage and get the foil packets ready to go before your guests arrive (or before you are ready for a fast weeknight dinner).

You can also feel free to add extra or different veggies – onions, zucchini, and bell peppers would all be especially delicious additions or alternatives here.

Once the potatoes are sliced and pre-cooked briefly (because they would need longer on the grill than the other ingredients… pre-cooking them just a bit makes everything done all at once), throw them in the foil packets along with your sliced tomatoes, chicken sausage, and mushrooms.

Drizzle with a little olive oil, sprinkle on some optional salt and red pepper flakes, and that’s it! Put another piece of foil on top of the packet, seal it up (leaving a little steam hole), and toss them on the grill.

15 or so minutes later and you have yourself a feast!

Don’t forget to add the crumbled feta before serving. 😉 I love the Happy Farms Preferred Basil and Tomato Feta from ALDI – so delicious.

Here’s the full recipe – I hope you will give it a shot this summer or fall and let me know how you like it!
