Before our backpacking trip, we practiced cooking with our new Jetboil and wanted to try different pouches: Rice and chicken, Beef stew and Lasagna with meat Sauce. We then felt comfortable using our Jetboil and had no problem with it. At the same time, we tried eating the rice and chicken. It was very edible; it contains precooked Rice, cooked chicken, salt, onion powder, and spices.
At another day, we tried beef stew and lasagna. The beef stew is also very edible; it contains potatoes, cooked beef, carrots, peas, corn, onions, sugar and garlic powder. However, we had to add salt for an additional flavor. Next, we tried the the lasagna and loved it! We immediately chose this pouch as our dinner meal. The meat sauce has tomatoes, cooked beef, dehydrated onions, spices, garlic powder and dehydrated Parsley Flakes. The cheese blend includes mozzarella, dehydrated Parmesan and Romano cheeses. Adding a pinch of salt helps but not required. Not bad for a frozen dried entree, huh?
Next time, we’ll try the chicken teriyaki with rice and beef stroganoff with noodles.
