I have had most of the pasta dinners and loved them as well. The chicken and dumplings are okay. I bought the chili Mac but haven't tried it yet. Saving that one for my next trip. Don't buy the apple crisp. Was pretty mediocre.

Agreed on the apple crisp. I was underwhelmed.

Beef stroganoff is good, surprisingly the Chili Mac is good too.

The hash brown idea is a good one.

JetBoil (or the MSR version) is on my list of things to buy

The spaghetti with sauce, but then add a little extra pasta from home.

Spaghetti

Lasagna with meat sauce for dinner is probably my first choice.

I'll post some photos of my backpacking trip when I get home tonight.

Same. Some of the others are downright nasty.

Mountain House makes me want to barf. I've just eaten too much of it.

Do they have variety packs like you can get at costco?

Do you find that you can generally feed two people from one package?

Cachanilla83

7/13/17 3:08pm

No, definitely not. I'm usually still a little hungry after eating the whole package that says it's 2 servings.

jdub

7/13/17 3:11pm

Right, especially after a long day of backpacking. You need two packets for two

The weight of the ramen is nice, but I just can't bring myself to eat it plain anymore.

I actually love the Idahoan potatoes for backpacking.

This is a really good thread to favorite because it has some excellent backpacking food recommendations

It's barely a meal for one

My response above was to use the spaghetti one, but add some pasta. This works
