Perfect Packets

This Friday seafood, vegetable and millet dish was baked in a parchment pocket.  The inspiration was from this month's Better Homes and Gardens magazine.  I made 2 for us and 2 to take to Moms'.

Cut 4 parchment rectangles.  On one side of each, place 1/4th of the millet.  Follow with 1/4 of each of the vegetable-seasoning ingredients.  Fold parchment around the mixture.  Bake at 350 F. for 20 minutes.  Arrange on plates.

Happy Friday!
