Looking for alternatives this year. I have typically used MREs (w/Heaters) for lunch and Mtn House for dinner in addition to a variety of other snacks throughout the day. Using the MRE allows me to leave my stove at base camp and requires less water to prepare lunch. I don't mind boiling water and preparing the Mtn House meal at base camp. The drawback to MREs is they are heavy. I'm looking for a lightweight alternative for lunch. Any suggestions? How about Heater Meals, Omeals, Campsite Catering? I am also going to strip the MREs to just the main course and heater and see how much they weigh. I understand you can't match the weight of a freeze dried meal, just looking for a good alternative.
