Ham and Pasta Foil Dinners

I made this foil dinner while at the cabin. I made a few changes and it turned out great!

1 (1 lb) package Pasta Accents Garlic Frozen Vetetables with Pasta
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill weed or 1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 jar (2 oz) diced pimento, drained, if desired
4 slices (4 oz) cooked ham or turkey ham

Grill Directions: Heat grill. In medium bowl, combine vegetables with pasta, dill and pimento. Cut four 18x12 inch pieces of heavy-duty foil. Place 1 ham slice on each; top with 1/4 of vegetable mixture. Wrap each packet securely using double-fold seals, allowing room for heat expansion. When ready to grill, place packets, seam side up, on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 15 to 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated, rearranging packets several times during cooking. Makes 4 servings.

Oven Directions: Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare packets as directed above. Place packets, seam side up, in 15x10x1 inch baking pan. Bake for 20 mintues or until thoroughly heated.

Notes: I don't care for dill and pimento so I used seasoning salt on the ham and vegetable seasoning on the vegetables. I could not find the Pasta Accents so I used Fiesta Blend vegetables.
