Plz reccomend some healthy(somewhat) meals that can be packed in a backpack or in bicycle panniers. I am going to see how well I can travel with a gas burner, cast iron pan, and butter in a jar (so if it gets melty it will be ok) and cook potatoes and chicken at least once a dayProbabaly do nuts and peanut butter a bunch, and go out to eat when I see restraunts
>>2862136You can go Outdoor Boys mode and get some bread dough ready to mix with leaven and bake, since you’re taking cast iron. Not extremely healthy but you can get good quality ingredients and make the best of it.
>>2862136>>2862137I only resort to bread because it sounds like you’ve got a good menu going, eggs and fruit would be hard to keep intact, and salad doesn’t seem like the backpacking food craving to me. I would definitely take some vegetables though, you can fry some onions to eat with whatever you make and it’s always pretty good.
>>2862136i like lentils, they are easier to cook than beans and taste pretty good. they go good with just about anything as a side, but a good lentil soup is nice.
Any other meal ideas you /outsiders?
>>2862206it's "/out/ists" you newfag poser
>>2862136It is very large but you can get a #10 can of freeze dried chicken breast chunks from mountain house. It is great to premix portions with other instant or freeze dried foods like instant potato flakes and any freeze dried veggies you like.
>>2862136I like most of the stuff from campchow.org One thing to keep in mind though, the noodle are raw, not freeze dried. So you need to boil them. A simple boiling water soak will not cook them properly. The cuscus and rice ones can just add water and don't need a proper boil.
Make sure it's an ultralight cast iron pan.
>>2862136spirit stove weights waaaay less.one pot, some alcohol and the food.i suggest methanol bc not soot.it's toxic, so dont drink it or etc.flame in rain and wind.learn to guess the alcohol volume needed for each dish.FLAME IS INVISIBLE UNDER SUNLIGHT:DONT POUR ALCOHOL OVER FLAME.find tutorial for more info.t. extremely happy with it.
There are already multiple food/cooking threads
>>2862332Thank you, we wouldn't have noticed this without you.
>>2862206take swiss knife with spoon fork knife w/egas burner 190gchili beans cansome cheese to shred on topsmoked cutleta red onion and 2 cloves of garlic and a bit of butter, they sell 10g butter cubes heremuy bueno, can make for a good meal or even a snack for 2-3 with crackers, i usually make it with friends when we go out and stay for more than 5-6h outside
anyone know if the brand of canister needs to match the stove? can i use a snow peak stove with an msr can and vice versa?
>>2863706Pretty sure all brands use the same connector (lindal valve). The only different types are on those big iron-walled propane cans or on those aerosol charge cans (shaped like a spray-paint can)
>>2862136most of my camping meals end up being:>diced beef (doesn't matter if you don't cook it properly)>microwave rice pack (only needs 30ml of water to cook and is quick)>jar sauce of some kindMix it all together and it's a nice big meal
