I guess I left myself open on that one.
Breakfast: home-made muesli. Hard-core home-made too.

Lunch: In Europe, local wholemeal bread, butter, jam, cheese (lots), salami. In Oz, either wholemeal sourdough bread or dry biscuits.

Dinner: Pasta or rice, half a packet of instant soup (too much salt), and some extras like dried tomatoes, dried mushrooms, etc, with cheese and salami on top.

(Tomato rice.)

Cheers

Well, looks like most of that would still work for a 12-day trip – assuming the dry biscuits and not the local wholemeal! And as long as the cheese is good and hard. Serious parmesan, maybe pecorino. I think I’d do without the 12 days worth of jam, myself. That could get heavy.

Does hard-core homemade muesli mean you grow your own oats?

Parmesan might be just a bit too powerful to be eaten in volume.
In Europe, something like Comté or the local high-alpine cheese. In Oz usually Jahlsberg (from Norway). It is similar (but not as good).
NEVER any ‘processed cheese’, which is a contradiction in terms.

Muesli: raw oats (NOT Instant), All-Bran, wheat-germ if I can get it, dried fruit in volume and range, nuts ditto. No sugar or other additives.

Cheers
