There are over 700,000 acres/280,000 hectares of public land borde= ring my 71-acre/29-hectare "backyard" in addition to all the other gorgeous= locations which abound in Colorado. Over the past 15 years, my husband Joh= n and I have also had the good fortune to hike/snowshoe glaciers, rain fore= sts, mountains and deserts in exotic locations, including New Zealand, Icel= and, Costa Rica, Slovenia and Death Valley. My hiking style is comfortable,= aiming for lightweight. I use a tent (rainfly if needed). Current pack ave= rages 25 lb (11 kg) excluding food and water. PRODUCT INFORMATION TITLE: Backpack Gourmet: Good Hot Grub You Can Make at Home, Dehydrate, and= Pack for Quick, Easy, and Healthy Eating on the Trail Author: Linda Frederick Yaffe Year Copyright 2002 Published by: Stackpole Books:=20 Publisher's Website: http://www.stackpolebooks.com Author's Website: http://tinyurl.com/hd3qohj MSRP: US $14.99 Print, $13.99 Digital (Kindle) Listed Weight: N/A Measured Weight: Not applicable ASIN: B00IN7X70W Other details: File Size: 2585 KB Print Length: 176 pages book DESCRIPTION AND USE As indicated in the very long title of the book, this is a book for people = who want to make and dehydrate food at home for rehydration and heating up = on the trail. The book is divided into 5 chapters: beginning with the Introduction and Ho= me-Dried One-Pot Meals and then continuing through Breakfast and Lunch, Swe= et and Savory Snacks, and Pasta Dishes and Casseroles. It closes out with a= section of Suggested Reading and Index. The very short Introduction focuses on the many benefits of dehydrating mea= ls for backpacking and is followed by a slightly longer chapter Home-Dried = One-Pot Meals which covers the basics of dehydrating, equipment needed, mea= l planning suggestions and information on the backcountry equipment needed,= including stoves, fuels, bear canisters and water filters. All this is det= ailed in the first 18 pages of the digital version of the book. In chapter 3, the author begins with Breakfast and Lunch recipes, starting = with breakfast items, including several (each) hot beverages, hot breakfast= combinations, hot cereals, cold cereals, breakfast bars, drinks and moving= up to lunch options such as breads, crackers, toasts, spreads and jerky.=20 Recipes for Sweet and Savory Snacks including nuts, beans, vegetables, drie= d fruit and fruit leather, trail mixes and bars and cookies make up the con= tents of Chapter 4. This is followed by Soups and Stews including soups, chowders, stews, chili= es, beans and pilafs in Chapter 5. The final and longest chapter in the book is titled: Pasta Dishes and Casse= roles which introduces meatless pasta dishes, pasta with meat or seafood ch= oices, lasagna, casseroles and other combination dishes. The book closes out with a short list of other suggested articles/books to = read and the index to this book. All of the dishes have the number of servings the recipe makes and the weig= ht of one serving at the top of each page. This is a great help when planni= ng backcountry meals! One small omission for metric users is the lack of me= tric conversions. *** Note: For me and my trail mates, the serving sizes are quite a bit more= than the "generous" portions the author indicates they are. We are general= ly over-stuffed. I have compensated for that by doubling the recipe and if,= for example that would make eight servings; I bag it as three meals for th= ree people. The recipes are clearly written in a chronological manner where the ingredi= ents are not listed at the top of the recipe followed by the directions but= rather the ingredients are introduced as the directions proceed. This took= a bit to get used to for me as when I cook, I usually would read the ingre= dients and gather them all before starting the process. However, thanks to = the fact that the ingredients are in bold type, I still am able to pick the= m out first. And I do like that the amounts are right there listed in the d= irections as I go along. IMAGE 2 Digial Version Recipe IMAGE 3 Breakfast To Go For instance: One of the simplest and most tasty breakfast recipes is the "Instant Oatmea= l" which doesn't even need the process of dehydration and is written in the= consistently used format as below: 1. Grind to a powder in a blender or food processor: 2 cups regular rolled oats 1/4 cup any variety nuts 2. Place the powder in a plastic bag and add: 1 cup instant dry milk 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 cup any variety chopped dried fruit 3. In camp, cover with water 3 inches above level of food in pot. Stir whil= e bringing to a boil. Serve immediately. This is so good that I keep a container on hand even at home. So much bette= r than the instant packets sold in grocery stores! I have personally cooked, dehydrated, packed-in, rehydrated and eaten every= single hot breakfast combination and hot cereal recipe in this book! I als= o can recommend the toasted bagels and hummus and bruschetta spreads for lu= nches.=20 Cooking Equipment on Trail Cooking on the Trail IMAGE 5 Dinner is Served! Love the Cowboy Pasta recipe for a very hearty dinner as well. I haven't re= ally experimented too much with the seafood dishes as I'm not sure I like t= he idea of fish smells in the bear-country I usually backpack in! Doesn't s= eem like a good idea to me though on one day hike in flat open desert, we d= id enjoy one of the tuna casseroles. In closing, this is my go-to backpacking dehydrating cookbook. I have sever= al but I use this one the most. STARRING ATTRACTIONS 1.) Great tasting and nutritious recipes 2.) Easy to read and follow directions 3.) Lots of good advice and information for newbie dehydrators MINOR DISTRACTIONS 1.) For me and my trail mates, the portions are too large. SUMMARY Dinner is served Trail Mate, Julia, Enjoying Lunch. Since my most frequent trail mates are my son, a professional chef and my d= aughter-in-law, a amateur gourmet cook, I have never had to eat store-bough= t backpacking meals or subsist on food bars when I backpack. And since I tr= y to pull my own weight, I make it a point to contribute my share of the gr= ub on the trail. With Backpack Gourmet, I am confident my meals are nutriti= ous and delicious as well. I use this book a lot - as a matter of fact, I h= ave a Cowboy Pasta meal dehydrating right now as I type and as usual, the w= hole house smells wonderful! I can heartily recommend this book (and I have - my daughter-in-law also ha= s it now) to anyone who wants good food when hiking, backpacking and campin= g and doesn't want the high salt, preservatives and the price of pre-packag= ed, off-the-shelf dehydrated meals.

It closes out with a section of Suggested Reading and Index.<b= r><br>The very short Introduction focuses on the many benefits of dehydrati= ng meals for backpacking and is followed by a slightly longer chapter Home-= Dried One-Pot Meals which covers the basics of dehydrating, equipment neede= d, meal planning suggestions and information on the backcountry equipment n= eeded, including stoves, fuels, bear canisters and water filters. All this = is detailed in the first 18 pages of the digital version of the book.<br><b= r>In chapter 3, the author begins with Breakfast and Lunch recipes, startin= g with breakfast items, including several (each) hot beverages, hot breakfa= st combinations, hot cereals, cold cereals, breakfast bars, drinks and movi= ng up to lunch options such as breads, crackers, toasts, spreads and jerky.= <br><br>Recipes for Sweet and Savory Snacks including nuts, beans, vegetab= les, dried fruit and fruit leather, trail mixes and bars and cookies make u= p the contents of Chapter 4.<br><br>This is followed by Soups and Stews inc= luding soups, chowders, stews, chilies, beans and pilafs in Chapter 5.<br><= br>The final and longest chapter in the book is titled: Pasta Dishes and Ca= sseroles which introduces meatless pasta dishes, pasta with meat or seafood= choices, lasagna, casseroles and other combination dishes.<br><br>The book= closes out with a short list of other suggested articles/books to read and= the index to this book.<br><br>All of the dishes have the number of servin= gs the recipe makes and the weight of one serving at the top of each page. = This is a great help when planning backcountry meals! One small omission fo= r metric users is the lack of metric conversions.<br><br>*** Note: For me a= nd my trail mates, the serving sizes are quite a bit more than the "ge= nerous" portions the author indicates they are. We are generally over-= stuffed. I have compensated for that by doubling the recipe and if, for exa= mple that would make eight servings; I bag it as three meals for three peop= le.<br><br>The recipes are clearly written in a chronological manner where = the ingredients are not listed at the top of the recipe followed by the dir= ections but rather the ingredients are introduced as the directions proceed= . This took a bit to get used to for me as when I cook, I usually would rea= d the ingredients and gather them all before starting the process. However,= thanks to the fact that the ingredients are in bold type, I still am able = to pick them out first. And I do like that the amounts are right there list= ed in the directions as I go along.<br><br>IMAGE 2<br>Digial Version Recipe= <br>IMAGE 3<br>Breakfast To Go<br><br>For instance:<br><br>One of the simpl= est and most tasty breakfast recipes is the "Instant Oatmeal" whi= ch doesn't even need the process of dehydration and is written in the consi= stently used format as below:<br><br>1. Grind to a powder in a blender or f= ood processor:<br>2 cups regular rolled oats<br>1/4 cup any variety nuts<br= ><br>2. Place the powder in a plastic bag and add:<br>1 cup instant dry mil= k<br>1/2 cup packed brown sugar<br>1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br>1/4 cup = any variety chopped dried fruit<br><br>3. In camp, cover with water 3 inche= s above level of food in pot. Stir while bringing to a boil. Serve immediat= ely.<br><br>This is so good that I keep a container on hand even at home. S= o much better than the instant packets sold in grocery stores!<br><br>I hav= e personally cooked, dehydrated, packed-in, rehydrated and eaten every sing= le hot breakfast combination and hot cereal recipe in this book! I also can= recommend the toasted bagels and hummus and bruschetta spreads for lunches= . <br><br>Cooking Equipment on Trail<br>Cooking on the Trail<br>IMAGE 5<br>= Dinner is Served!<br><br>Love the Cowboy Pasta recipe for a very hearty din= ner as well. I haven't really experimented too much with the seafood dishes= as I'm not sure I like the idea of fish smells in the bear-country I usual= ly backpack in! Doesn't seem like a good idea to me though on one day hike = in flat open desert, we did enjoy one of the tuna casseroles.<br><br>In clo= sing, this is my go-to backpacking dehydrating cookbook. I have several but= I use this one the most.<br><br>STARRING ATTRACTIONS<br><br>1.) Great tast= ing and nutritious recipes<br>2.) Easy to read and follow directions<br>3.)= Lots of good advice and information for newbie dehydrators<br><br>MINOR DI= STRACTIONS<br><br>1.) For me and my trail mates, the portions are too large= .<br><br>SUMMARY<br><br>Dinner is served<br>Trail Mate, Julia, Enjoying Lun= ch.<br><br>Since my most frequent trail mates are my son, a professional ch= ef and my daughter-in-law, a amateur gourmet cook, I have never had to eat = store-bought backpacking meals or subsist on food bars when I backpack. And= since I try to pull my own weight, I make it a point to contribute my shar= e of the grub on the trail. With Backpack Gourmet, I am confident my meals = are nutritious and delicious as well.
