  I saw these recipes and had to share them they look so easy, delicious and healthy. I will make them and post my variations that will make them even tastier. Try them and share your variations:)

Grilled Lemon Pepper Halibut and Squash Packs

Ingredients

1
pound halibut fillets, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
2
teaspoons dried basil leaves
1
teaspoon lemon pepper
1
teaspoon seasoned salt
3
medium zucchini or summer squash, cut into 2x1-inch strips
1
medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
2
tablespoons olive or vegetable oil

Directions

  • 1Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Cut four 18x12-inch pieces of heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray. Cut fish into 4 serving pieces if necessary. Place 1 fish piece on each foil piece. Sprinkle fish with 1 teaspoon of the basil, 1/2 teaspoon of the lemon pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of the seasoned salt.
  • 2Arrange zucchini and bell pepper over fish. Sprinkle with remaining basil, lemon pepper and seasoned salt. Drizzle with oil. Fold foil over fish and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again. Allow space on sides for circulation and expansion.
