jgaz 268 Posted July 1, 2018 Stumbled across what I think is an excellent site for DIY backpacking or Jeeping meals https://www.theyummylife.com/Backpacking_Food I really like the authors method of packing 7 days of meals in one bear canister. As well as no cooking, boiling water only preparations. Site seems to be the rare collaboration of a good cook and an avid backpacker (taste tester). The oatmeal variations look interesting. Eating the same thing for 5 or 6 days straight does get a bit boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZRNintheJeep242 115 Posted July 1, 2018 Thanks for sharing. Kinda reminds me of the seal-a-meals my mom would make my dad and I for when we went on hunting trips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jgaz 268 Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) A recent post to this thread reminded me of my latest taste test. I stood a pouch of “Starkist Chicken Creations” in a pot the diameter of a 1qt Nalgene bottle, (after I snipped off a corner). Brought the water to a boil and left the pouch in the pot to simmer for about 3 minutes. Scooped the chicken into a tortilla and ate it. It was a keeper, especially for backpacking food. In fact, I’d eat it Jeep camping. I’d probably want two pouches after day of backpacking though. No refrigeration required and 11 grams of protein. Note: Starkist doesn’t list this as a way to heat this product. However, I saw no degradation of the pouch, noticed any weird flavors and haven’t died yet! YMMV Edited October 1, 2019 by jgaz 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
