Great recipes and they look pretty easy. My last trip I swore never to have a commercial dehydrated dinner, what I thought was bad risotto with dish washing liquid, was in fact butter chicken curry....... seriously bad, but had a high entertainment value watch everyone’s reactions to the taste then letting then guess what it was!

Haha, too bad entertainment value doesn’t fill the stomach 😅. We’ve recently been trying out some of the higher end brands, and they are a lot better than the cheap stuff. But making your own stuff and adjusting it to your taste is pretty great too.
these are very good looking recipes I will be trying all 3 not only at home but while I'm out hiking ! I've got to say as Belgian Hikers I was laughing at the American accent of the narrator 🤪
Awesome! Many Thanks.

Great recipes ! Thank you !!
Where's the fat?!! Pack in a small bottle of olive oil (or ghee if in warm climate) to add to those! Calorie to weight ratio. Balance the more even-burn and slow-burn fat against the fast-burning carbs.

I don’t have an exact measurement for the water, a lot of it is personal preference. Maybe start by filling the bag so everything is under water and then add about a cm/half an inch on top of that.
