2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
1 onion, sliced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano

Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil, each about 12 inches long.
Divide the vegetable mixture evenly among the foil pieces, placing it in the center of each piece.

Bring the long sides of the foil together and fold them over to seal the packet. Fold the short sides over and crimp them to seal the packet completely.
Place the foil packets on the preheated grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Remove the foil packets from the grill and carefully open them, being cautious of the hot steam.
Serve the sausage and peppers hot, either on their own or with your choice of accompaniments.
