Greek Chicken and Vegtables

I am sending a recipe for something I did on the grill last night, in foil pouches! 

3 boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
Can of diced Tomatoes/with garlic and onion
Can of green beans...can use french style also
Feta Cheese

I took a few strips of the Chicken, some green beans, some of the diced 
tomatoes, and feta cheese...wrapped it in foil, continued doing this till 
ingredients were gone....wrapped them up tight and grilled for 20 
minutes...BOY were they yummy! I use a charcoal Webber grill..so maybe they 
wouldnt take as long on a Gas grill...for those who dont like Feta cheese, Im 
sure you can use any kind! Quick fast meal, with hardly any clean up!!!!
