I’m just putting together my meals for a trip in a couple of weeks. I thought I’d post what I’m up to and see what others are doing to get their calories in. I’m going to post a bit and add to it as I remember more. I usually fill a vacuum seal bag with either two days worth of food for one person or in this case I’m putting one day of food for me and my 11 year old. I’ve been using the recipes for adventure by chef glen along with some of my own recipes.
One person one day-
breakfast
-oatmeal 2 packs
or- chef glens scrambled eggs and polenta with cheese and veggies
lunch
one pack of ichiban(I don’t know why I crave these in the mountains, I can’t stand them at home)
snacks
-3 squares of Lindt excellence dark chocolate(I like the chili pepper, sea salt and caramel, or the 70% cocoa)
-trail mix (I can’t remember if it’s one cup of half cup)
-dried bananas
-one dried apple (the green sour kind) Or a ripe pear
-one pack of emergen-c
-one fruit leather or fruit 2 go bar
-one clif bar (nut butter filled)
Dinner-
-chili
-chef glens stew
I find my kid needs more snacks than me during the long days. He needs a good power up every couple of hours. He’s a little more lean than me too.
