substantial energy throughout your hike. It can be quit filling

Boil water and cook noodles. Set aside. Sauté halfed mushrooms in Margarine about 10 mins. Add sauce packet and sliced Jerky and follow cooking directions for sauce. Cheese/Tomato sauces work as well and the mushrooms weigh next to nothing and are a treat and very filling. (Submitted by Mark, May 2000) |

First make sure you use VanCamp's Pork & Beans and KRAFT cheese or it won't turn out! Put cans of beans in a pot, simmer. Chop up onion and jalapeno slices and put in the beans. I like to brown the sausage first then cut it up and put in the pot. Take the cheese slices and cover the top of the beans and then let all cook. Stir when the cheese starts to melt. I usually eat with corn bread I have cooked at home and hauled with me. This stuff is great. You can always leave out the jalapenos and it still tastes good! It makes enough for two adult men and one adult female. (Submitted by Kurleycue, March 2000) |

Bring 2 cups of water to boil. Toss all
of it in at any point. Simmer for about 3 minutes or until it
reaches the density you like. The canola oil returns the fat
taste, adds no flavor of its own, and makes all the difference
in the world (Submitted by Larry, May 2000) |

Add water to taco hamburger substitute
(can be found in health food stores as a vegetarian meat substitute;
it already has the seasonings in it - or you can bring seasonings
along and use regular hamburg substitute) and simmer/boil for
15 minutes. Put on tortillas. Cut some chunks of the leftover
cheese from lunch and put on top. Dress with taco sauce (compliments
of Taco Bell condiments cabinet; we found "Hot" not
to be a good idea). (Submitted by Tina, May 2000) |

You can find dry mini ravioli and tortellini
at Trader Joes and even Costco. They are so yummy and much easier
to cook than other pastas, like spaghetti which turns to mush
at higher elevations. They take from 10-15 minutes to cook. They
can be eaten with just olive oil, or with a tomato sauce made
from homemade tomato leather or a couple Tablespoons dried tomato
powder (+herbs spices, garlic) from Alpine Aire. Trader Joes also sells something called Jaipur Vegetables which comes in this foil pouch which you submerge in boiling water for like 5 minutes and you have this yummy Indian curry potatoe veggie goulash which we discovered is really tasty mixed with the above pastas. Yum! Couscous is also yummy mixed with ravioli & tortellini. As you can tell these are quite versatile. You won't regret them. Don't eat corn pasta, yuck! Eat gourmet! (Submitted by tard, May 2000) |

I went for a long one day hike with no
other food than some whole milk powder and glucose. This was mixed in equal parts, and added to a water bottle, shaken, and consumed as a drink. This was very good for that task, but I would not recommend to only take this on a long, multi-day hike. Could be a good 'emergency' ration, packed in a tight plasic bag. Both the milk powder and the glocose are very good foods for high activity. Whole Milk Powder can be purchased from kingarthurflour.com, but it's not the instant type ;-( |

In the cup or container of your choice, mix a few ml's of the lemon concentrate with water, and add a couple of teaspoons worth of Splenda. If you container has a lid, or if using a ziplock bag, close it up and shake the *&$!!** out of it. The kids thought this was fabulous, particularly on the last day of a one week hike.

Add 28 oz filtered water to your container, add 4 oz grain alcohol and half a package of crystal light. Shake, enjoy. This is equivalent to drinking 5 or 6 beers. Works great and comes in handy on extended trips or for ultralight trips. (Submitted by Lou, May 2000) |
