Sausage and Peppers Foil Packets
Prep ahead of time and portion these into individual servings! Loaded with sausage, peppers, rice and cajun seasoning!!!
I have a huge weakness for sausage.
And when I say weakness, I mean, I will pick sausage over a slice of chocolate cake.
Or any other dessert for that matter.
A creme brulee donut.
No.
It won’t do the trick.
The sausage wins.
Easily.
The sausage wins even more when you couple it with peppers, rice and cajun seasoning.
It’s a true winner across the board.
It also gets bonus points because the rice cooks in the foil packets too.
Genius, I know, guys.

If wanted to make in oven what would be the recommend temp and length of time? Thanks!
You can bake at 425 degrees F for about 20-30 minutes.
Curious why it would take 20-30 minutes in the oven when it only takes half that on the grill?
The heat from the grill is much higher.
This looks delicious and super easy! I will definitely be trying this recipe soon. Would it be possible to cook this in the oven also?
Yes, of course!
