Cooking in Parchment Paper!

Cooking in parchment paper or as the French call it “papillote” is an extremely easy and quick way to make a meal!  You can choose to add just protein or make it a complete meal by adding other ingredients, just make sure the cooking time for all the ingredients is the same. The technique is simple: take a sheet of parchment paper fold it in half, add ingredients to one half (the other half is going to be your “lid”), crimp the edges to seal the packet, place on a baking sheet, bake and enjoy!  How easy and quick is that and clean up is a breeze! The packets also make a great presentation. You can also use foil too as I have done calling them “Hobo Packets”,  which is the name my Mom used.  Try a few of mine listed below, see my recipe collection for more options or add the ingredients of your liking!
