Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) Italian sausages (choose sweet or spicy based on your preference)

2 cups zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 cup bell peppers, diced (a colorful mix like red, yellow, and green adds visual appeal)

1 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1 cup corn kernels (can be fresh, frozen, or canned, depending on availability)

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley or basil for garnish (optional, but adds a pop of color)

Aluminum foil

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, which should be around 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Sausages: If your Italian sausages are in links, slice them into bite-sized pieces. This will not only speed up cooking but also allow the flavors to meld beautifully with the vegetables.

      Prepare the Veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, diced bell peppers, sliced red onion, and corn kernels. Mix well to integrate the ingredients.

        Season the Mixture: Drizzle the olive oil over the veggie mixture. Then, sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Toss the mixture thoroughly to ensure that every vegetable is well-coated in the seasoning.

          Assemble the Foil Packs: Tear off four large sheets of aluminum foil, ensuring there’s enough room to create a pouch for each pack. Divide the seasoned veggie mixture evenly across the center of each foil piece, then top with the sausage pieces.

            Seal the Foil Packs: Carefully fold the sides of the aluminum foil over the sausage and veggie mixture, then fold the ends securely to create sealed packets. Make sure they’re tight enough to keep any steam from escaping during cooking.

              Grill the Packs: Place the foil packs directly on the preheated grill grates. Grill for approximately 20-25 minutes, flipping the packs halfway through to ensure even cooking. The sausages should be fully cooked and the vegetables tender by the end of this time.

                Serve: Once grilled, carefully remove the foil packs from the grill using tongs. Open each pack with care to avoid any hot steam escaping. For a delightful touch, garnish with fresh parsley or basil. You can serve directly from the foil for a fun and casual dining experience!
