DIY backpacking dinners - stuffing with veggies



This one only clocks in at 450 calories, but stuffing always seems to "stick to your ribs" so hopefully it will be enough, perhaps for a light day. A single box of stuffing mix made enough for two, so there's another bag of this as the spare, in case we stay in country an extra day.

Ingredients
  • 1 ½ cups stuffing (I used chicken, you could use any flavor)
  • 1 Lipton "Cup-a-Soup" chicken noodle soup packet (for the dehydrated chicken bits more than anything else)
  • 1/3 cup dried vegetable flakes
  • 1/3 cup fried peas
  • 1 Tbs dried onion flakes
  • 1 tsp Butter Buds
  • dash of pepper
Preparation

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

This was DISGUSTING. Way too much food for one person, and after a while it was just an exercise in cloying chewing. And the fried peas were a failure because they did not rehydrate and had this weird flavor and texture. So, I do NOT recommend this recipe!
