These 2 brands punch way above their class IMO. Both usually a buck or less @ Wally World. There's other verities of both, but those Baby Reds are to die for.

Stir in an envelope of precooked bacon pieces with those potatoes and you've really got something. Add butter if you're really living large. We had that a couple nights on a fly in trip last year. Large servings for two.

Yes the Knorr and Idahoan brand are very good and cheap.

I agree. The Knorr rice sides are legit....

I've used this kind of stuff too. Also dehydrated beans from the bulk section. Having a girlfriend that makes complete dehydrated meals is pretty handy as well. That and packs of moose jerky, dates and walnuts get me by pretty well indefinitely.

Those mashed potatoes are damned good. I “make” them at home pretty often. I always add a big spoon of butter and a little black pepper.

With all of the dry goods available in a modern market, why would one want to limit his dining opportunities? I eat better on outings, than I do around the house.

The Knorr sides and pouch proteins are great, a bag of mixed dried fruit to throw in with oatmeal. I premix bannock mix,, fry in one piece in a pan or wrap around a stick and hold over the fire, add more sugar and cinnamon for a desert cake.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.

I don’t eat much.

My load out depends on temperature and how long I am out. Anything difficult I just stick with MH or a few select others. When and how much I eat is entirely dependent on the type of hunt. Unsalted mixed nuts like Costco has or the dry bins mixed with a few M&Ms aren’t bad. You eat a big meal during your hike I always think it puts you at risk of injury and takes your mind off point.

Last few years have brought some browned taco meat in a ziplock, and made burritos with that and cheese, soft tortillas and knorr mexican rice mix. I don't get too nervous about packing in a few ounces of water infused in my browned taco meat. Tortillas warm/cook easy on a flat rock from the fire. Kids like it too.

I’ve also been bringing a few of the Justin’s PB packets and spreading them on a Honey stinger waffle or a protein cookie for a snack while glassing.

The PB packet on a tortilla is my usual lunch on a backcountry hunt; maybe a piece of jerky or two if it’s cold. The packets are the perfect size and durable as heck.

I agree that the MH Biscuits & Gravy are awesome. I like to bring along black pepper to add.

I took along Lono Life bone broth & protein coffee packets on my past trip, each of which contain 10 Gr protein, and really enjoyed them. The coffee adds UMPH to my morning which usually consists of Starbucks via. The bone broth is great as a warm drink by itself but also as an additive to the noodles/soups/potatoes many have cited here.

A buddy sent me this link for baggie recipes you can prepare at home and I have been experimenting at home gonna try em on my next trip:

I like this vid too:
