Perhaps a recipe thread for people who like to roam the hills for weeks on end.

rating system?

taste                                                                  
-     starving, must eat          
--    edible  
---   somewhat delicious                                                                
----  very delicious                          

    transportable                                                                                                                                              
-       broke half my eggs first day                          
--      bruised   tomato 3 days  
---     carrot, about a week

 cleanup                                  
-         sandpaper
--
---
----     fingertip    

What is in the pan?
1 carrot
1/3 cup rice
Cut the carrot into very small chunks, and it will cook as fast as the rice.  (Can you see why I am asking for 1 pan recipes)?

taste --  transportable ---  health ---  cleanup---
Tip.  When the rice is simmering put an egg on top, then replace the lid, maybe half way through the simmer.

For transportable try-
Oatmeal and raisins.
Boil some water.
Stir oatmeal and raisins into water.
Cover and wait a few minutes.

taste --  transportable ----  health ---- cleanup ----

tip
Finding Oregon blueberries along the trail gets you closer to very delicious.


What are you going to pack in your bear can if you head into the mountains for a month?

the very delicious rating is very hard to achieve.

I'm going to rate my last breakfast @ camp very delicious, though I don't know about the health. It was:
King's Hawaiian Rolls
Fried Egg
Cheese
Fried Spam

I may also order tubes of Vegemite from Amazon, and then this'll become super-delicious

I didn't create this one, but it looks pretty good.

I think I was just boiling water for coffee here.   
This is my typical cooking gear setup using an alcohol stove with a large 24 oz space saver cup which nests snugly with my KK 40 oz water bottle.
I also use Knorr and Idahoan packets for quick simple meals.   Packets of tuna and real bacon as well...

The easiest one would probably be some sort of rissotto/rice based meal. Parmesan cheese keeps very well as it is dried (~3 weeks unrefrigerated in the Canadian summer before the block was finished was my longest, no issues there).

Risotto (Mushroom for this example)

Salami or similar (optional, does keep quite well unrefridgerated but there are of course limits)
Garlic (Real cloves aren't too heavy)
Oil (can be skipped if you aren't frying anything at the start)
Onion (Packaged fried onion is not bad)
Dried Mushrooms (Asian supermarkets have all sorts packaged a dried. They can be bulky but they weigh nearly nothing)
Stock cube (Chicken or Vegetable are good options)
Salt, pepper, herbs and spices to taste (An Italian spice mix works well)
Rice (white of some time so it cooks in a reasonable time, arborio if you feel like being authentic)
Parmesan cheese (A block keeps best, or you could go for the questionable stuff that doesn't need to be refrigerated

Fry the salami, garlic or onion if it's fresh. Add water (roughly 1.5 to 2 parts water per part ride), stock cube, mushrooms, rice and anything else. Bring to the boil (slowly is possible). Let it sit for a while until the rice absorbs all the water (15 minutes, depending on how long you took getting to the boil). Stir the parmesan through (it shaves pretty easily with a sharp knife) and eat.

Play around with the ingredients and make just about anything flavour wise. You can use any fresh or dried vegies, meats, beans or whatever in there. It's a pretty versatile base that you can make do with what you have on hand. If you want to carry as little as possible you can use dried everything and just throw it in and bring it to the boil. With a few fresh ingredients you can make a really delicious meal. 

Another really easy one is cous cous with dried fruit and nuts. Add water (1 part water per part cous cous) and dried fruit. Add a touch of vegetable stock (optional) and  spices if you like (sumac works well with the fruit and nuts) bring it to the boil. Once boiling add the cous cous and stir in, leave covered for a minute or so. stir/fluff up and add nuts. Makes a hot meal very quickly. Good for a hot lunch.

This time of year many a creature ventures into the woods for a while.

Some know how to use natural resources.

Some stop a the store along the way.

This is a simple meal of spaghetti, babby carrots, and a jalapeno pepper.
To save fuel, once the spaghetti is in boiling water, turn the fuel off for maybe 10 minutes, then bring it back to a boil.  It takes a few extra minutes, but saves fuel.

taste ----  transportable ---  health ---- cleanup ----

Anybody else have some simple meals to satisfy a creature in the forest for a while?
