Twist on Potatoes - Willy says - Great

Willy found this potato recipe that makes a different twist on potatoes. Willy is always looking for different ways to supplement that steak or other meats that Willy likes so well - So here it is:

What You Need

2 cups thinly sliced peeled potatoes (about 1/4-inch thick)

1 cup thinly sliced carrots

1/2 cup water

1/3 cup plus 1 Tbsp. KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided

1/3 cup MIRACLE WHIP Dressing

2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley

Make It

PREHEAT grill to medium heat. Place potatoes and carrots in microwaveable bowl. Add water; cover. Microwave on HIGH 5 to 7 min. or until potatoes are crisp-tender; drain well. Meanwhile, mix 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese and the dressing. Add to potato mixture; mix lightly.

SPOON onto center of 20-inch piece of heavy-duty foil sprayed with cooking spray. (Or, use a double layer of regular foil.) Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place on upper shelf of grill.

GRILL 15 to 20 min. or until vegetables are tender. Cut slits in foil to release steam. Open packet carefully. Sprinkle potato mixture with parsley and the 1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese.

Enjoy - 10-4 Willy
