Vegetable Hobo Packets

Cut double-thickness 24-inch (60 cm) length of heavy-duty foil; fold in half crosswise.

Unfold foil; mound vegetables on one side close to fold. Drizzle with butter or olive oil. Sprinkle with herbs, salt and pepper. Fold foil over; fold in sides and seal to form packet. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)

Place on grill over medium-high heat; close lid and cook for 10 minutes, turning once, until tender. To serve, shake gently to distribute seasonings. Drizzle with lemon juice, if desired.
