Preheat grill.
Cut six 18 x 10 inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil; spray sheets with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, mix ground beef, dry soup mix, egg, milk and breadcrumbs; shape into 6 loaves, each 4x2 1/2x1 inch. Place a loaf on each foil sheet; top each with about 1 T. ketchup. Place 1/2 c. potatoes and 1/2 c. carrots around each loaf.
Bring up 2 sides of foil so that the edges meet; seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
Place packets on preheated grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 25 - 30 minutes, rotating packets 1/2 turn after 15 minutes, until vegetables are tender and meat thermometer inserted in center of loaves reads 165 degrees.
To serve, cut a large X across tops of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape.
Serve, topped with a bit more ketchup and garnished with parsley, if desired.
6 servings.
*If fresh new potatoes are used instead of the refrigerated potatoes, cut them into wedges. Because refrigerated potatoes have been partially cooked, microwave the fresh ones for 4 - 6 minutes before adding to the packets.
**The packets can be made up to 24 hours in advance.
