Well, I know some of us wil be out on the trail this weekend :-)
This is one of my favorite meals for the trail:
Chicken & Cranberry Gravy With Mashed Potatoes:
In a quart freezer bag put-
1 cup instant mashed potatoes
1 tsp butter buds/molly McButter
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 tsp dried chives
In a second freezer bag put-
1 pouch chicken gravy mix (the add 1 cup water type)
1/2 cup Craisins
Also take a 7 oz foil pouch of chicken.
In camp add 1 cup boiling water to the potatoes, stir well. Add 1 cup boiling water to the gravy
mix, stir well, add chicken. Let sit in a cozy for 5 minutes. Stir again, pour over potatoes and eat!
Feeds 2 hikers..though I’d suggest if you are a huge eater, bring along a bag of seasoned green beans (freeze dried) as a side veggie…and maybe some crusty bread for the gravy!
