I will never give up my stove; I get far too much enjoyment from my morning coffee, hot meals at the end of a long day, and cups of tea right before bed. However, I've decided to try streamlining a bit and, at this stage, that means preparing meals that require only boiling water to complete. I've found some really good recipes scattered about the web, but I thought it might be nice to hear from the community, too.
While *I* am most interested in dinner recipes (I am quite content with breakfasts of hot cereals), other folks viewing this thread might find breakfast recipes useful too, so if it's tasty and requires only boiling water to prepare, post it here!
Sep 18, 2012 at 12:32 pm #1913357Cheesy Bacon Grits
1/2 cup instant grits, or 2 packets
1/2 cup or more crumbled Goldfish crackers
Handful of Hormel Real Bacon bits, sold in the salad toppings section.
(optional) A little bit of Nido powder helps add some creaminess, and calories.Simply add 2 cups boiling water and wait a couple minutes.
Cold granola and Nido milk are at the top of my list, but for a hot breakfast the above recipe is very satisfying, and easy to mix up at home in freezer bags before heading out.

1/4 cup dehydrated Just Veggies (preferably the corn and bell pepper variety)

1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tps onion powder
About 1/2 of the pack of cheese mix from a box of mac and cheese
1/4 cup of natural jerky, not grocery store brands as they won't rehydrate
