Sarbar’s new e-book and substitutions

Thank you Diane! :-)

Methinks you just gave me a blog post idea too! So yes, I cook and dry quinoa at home – then you can use it for the bulgur or couscous – once cooked and dried it is instant :-) My youngest son is GF, so yeah, things have really changed for us!

Polenta and instant grits (think Quaker brand) are similar but the instant grits only need boiling water and no cooking time, where as "quick cooking" polenta usually needs a minute boil. So I use the grits. I get the plain version usually.

Just bought mine. Thanks for the heads-up!

I would suggest the food prepared from her cookbooks isn't just for tents but is also excellent for eating inside buildings, too, such as at home or work. They're a nice addition to every day eating ideas. Her cran-bar recipe posted here on BPL a number of years ago is still a staple at my house.

Just downloaded the book from Amazon and look forward to reading through it for ideas over the holiday.

Thanks everyone!

And I actually released TWO books this past week :-) Trail Eats, which is 50 recipes, and Trail Cooking, the 275+ recipe book.

Up next…I go wrangle FBC Volume 2 into submission :-P

"And I actually released TWO books this past week :-) Trail Eats, which is 50 recipes, and Trail Cooking, the 275+ recipe book."

I bought the Trail Cooking one with 275 recipes. Are the 50 Trail Eats recipes covered in Trail Cooking?

Ian, Trail Eats is a compilation of our magazine column we wrote/shot between 2009 and summer of 2013 :)

Most of those I have made public over the years (although have since come down off the website). Wanted a fun way to put them all together :-)

Thanks Sarah. I have relatively new dehydrator waiting to be used and now have your book on Kindle. Looks like I have something to do instead of sitting on the couch complaining about how sick I am (much to my wife's relief).

Edit: Maybe cliche but nothing's worse than a man cold.

Lol!!

Get well!! With a brimming bowl of piping hot chicken soup! Or chickpea soup ;-)
