• Preheat a grill to medium. Toss the kielbasa, sweet potatoes, onion, celery, apricots and 4 thyme sprigs in a large bowl with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Drizzle with 1/4 cup orange juice and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Tear off four 24-inch sheets of foil and fold each in half. Pile the kielbasa mixture on one side of each foil sheet. Fold the foil over and crimp the edges to seal well. Grill the packets, rotating them occasionally so they don't burn, until the vegetables are tender, 18 to 22 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the vinegar with the remaining 1 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 thyme sprigs in a medium skillet; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Steps:

• Cut 12 (12x16") pieces of heavy-duty foil. Layer 2 pieces of foil on top of each other to create 6 stacks. Line top pieces of foil with parchment paper cut to the same size.
• Toss scallions, potatoes, sausage, oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Divide mixture among prepared packs, arranging in the center of each piece of parchment. Bring edges of foil together to enclose each pack, covering completely, then crimp to seal packs closed.
• Prepare a campfire or grill for medium, indirect heat, preferably with hardwood or hardwood charcoal. Let coals burn until covered with ash and glowing red with no black remaining.
• Place packs side by side directly onto hot coals or grill and cook, rotating with tongs occasionally, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove 1 pack from heat and check if ingredients are steaming hot. If necessary, return pack to coals and continue to cook, 5-10 minutes more.
• Transfer packs with tongs to a flat surface and carefully open them (they will be full of hot steam). Top each pack with spinach, then crack 1 egg into the center of each and season with salt and pepper. Reseal, return to coals, and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes.
• Carefully remove packs from coals, open, and sprinkle with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.
• Do Ahead
• Packs can be assembled and chilled for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
• Cooks' Note
• Packs can be prepared in an oven. Preheat to 450°F and place packs on rimmed baking sheets. Bake until steaming hot, about 15 minutes if packs were refrigerated and about 30 minutes if baking frozen packs (no need to defrost). Carefully open packs (they will be full of hot steam), top each pack with spinach, crack 1 egg into the center of each, season with salt and pepper, and reseal. Return to oven and cook until egg whites are opaque but yolks are still runny, 4-5 minutes more. Top with cheddar, if using. Serve immediately.

Bring up 2 sides of foil so 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 grill. Cover grill; cook over medium-low heat 20 to 25 minutes, rotating packets 1/2 turn after 10 minutes, until potatoes are tender. To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape.

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil; spray foil with cooking spray. Place 1/4 of potatoes and vegetables side by side on center of each sheet. Top each with 2 tablespoons dressing.
• Make cuts along outside edge of each kielbasa piece at 1/2-inch intervals almost but not completely through other side. Fan kielbasa over potatoes and vegetables. Top each with 1 tablespoon remaining dressing.
• Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal. At this point, packets can be refrigerated up to 24 hours.
• Place packets, seam side up, on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 20 to 30 minutes, rearranging packets several times during cooking, until potatoes and vegetables are tender.
• To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, or a large zip-top bag, combine the chicken, onion, mushrooms, yellow pepper, red pepper, garlic, and potatoes. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, then mix well.
• Evenly divide the mixture between 4 large sheets of aluminum foil. Top each with another sheet of foil, and roll up the edges tightly. Wrap each packet again, securely in another sheet of foil to double wrap.
• Cook in the hot coals of a campfire until the chicken is opaque and the potatoes are tender, around 40 minutes.
