Dh said you could probably do a half potato each, though ds and I ate more potatoes and less meat...but he's probably right. The portions are too much food for one person, but it's so good, you just keep eating! The veggies turn out a lot like the way the do with a roast, and the hamburger turned out juicy and tender--just right. I used a decent amount of s & p--sort of a thin, even coating on top of the meat, and then another generous amount on the veggies. It was super quick--took maybe 10 minutes, probably less to assemble, then walk away for an hour, and there's dinner! And soooo homey/comfort food delicious. I was a little worried about no fat or water in there; I thought the veggies would dry up, but apparently the little packets of aluminum foil keep the steam from them and the meat in there, and they sort of steam/roast.
