More recipes! This is another “recipe re-do” of a good idea made a bit easier. Pesto Salmon Pasta I swapped in dry pesto mix instead of a tube of pesto, made it a bit saucier and added cheese at the end. As well, I decided to go for diced pecans instead of pine nuts. Why? [...]

As I mentioned yesterday, we are helping Mike out with his food for his upcoming trip. I am nearly done with my half of the meals – a good 15 dinners, 11 breakfasts, around that many lunches and a bag of EVOO packets, along with 13 Pro Bars and many other items. The meals all [...]
Emergency Food? Ay or Nay?

I would love to hear back from our readers what your thoughts are on emergency food. Do you carry any? Is it only on dayhiking you do? On backpacking trips do you carry an extra meal or two? If you do carry extra food, what do you carry? Everyday food? Or items only sheer starvation [...]

In a short time our good friend Mike (GoBlueHiker) will be leaving on yet another adventure. This time he and two others are heading up to Princess Royal Island in British Columbia for a three week trip. More will be coming about Mike’s trip – I am working on the final details of my share [...]
Wandering On The Wonderland

The weather outlook was not great for today (or for Sunday either!) but after looking at the big report for Rainier it didn’t sound awful. Cloudy with chance of showers and cold temps. Better than 90% chance o’ rain, right?Last day of Spring, it really seemed right. Considering we just ended a near full 30 [...]

The original recipe that we re-did was not shelf stable due to carrying drained corn from a can. This also took an already heavy meal and made it even heavier. It also used a lot of bags to carry the components. By changing a few things slightly the whole meal is shelf stable and easier [...]

This recipe re-do is of a breakfast made of items found in a grocery store. The changes I made were more water – the water would be based on the brand of tabouli (or Tabbouleh) mix you buy along with an extra 1/4 cup for the cranberries. I also left out the salt called for [...]

Another recipe re-do! This recipe caught my eyes for an easy vegan/vegetarian friendly meal for two. Easy to make at home and easier to make on the trail. Only I changed it a bit. The original called for twice as much couscous. Couscous though expands quite a bit. 1 cup for two people with other [...]
