DIY backpacking dinners - "spaghetti" with beef and tomato "cream" "sauce"



Almost 600 calories, but also ten ounces, so not as good ratio as I would like. This one will be one of the more "interesting" ones in terms of how it ends up actually tasting. I am somewhere between hopeful and trepedated.

Ingredients
  • 2 3 oz. packages of crumbled ramen (remove the flavor packets and pitch 'em or save for something else)
  • ½ jar of dried beef, quartered
  • 1/3 cup dried milk (mostly for texture, I hope, and a bit of thickening)
  • 2 Tbs dried chopped tomatoes
  • 2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 Tbs dried red and green pepper flakes
  • 1 Tbs dried garlic chips
  • 1 Tbs dried onion flakes
  • 1 tsp marjoram
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp basil
  • dash of crushed hot red pepper flakes
  • dash of pepper
Preparation

Add a little over one cup of boiling water and let sit for at least five minutes.
