I've tried making this recipe twice and both times the parchment paper packets burned. Any suggestions?

I'm not a big fan of hash browns but I really enjoyed this recipe. The cheese and butter made them so rich and flavorful.

This was a fun recipe to make with the kids. We had a blast cooking it over the campfire. The cheese hash brown packets turned out great!

Delicious! I used sharp cheddar cheese and it gave the dish a nice tang. I'll definitely be making this again.

Meh. I thought this recipe was just okay. The cheese didn't melt very well and the hash browns were a bit too dry.

My family loved this! It's a great way to use up leftover hash browns and cheese. Next time I'll add some diced bell peppers and onions for extra flavor.
