I made up some meal packs. Similar to an MRE but you have to cook the main meal. I used a foodsaver/seal a meal and put several differnt meals that can be boiled like broccoli and rice or noodles and sauce. Then each one has a pack of oatmeal, a granola bar, 1 pack yogurt raisens, 2 packets of peanut butter , a pack of coco and a package of cider drink. I vacumed sealed them. All you have to do for the main meal is dump the contents into the seal a meal bag add water and boil it in your mess kit. No cleanup of your mess kit because you boil it in the bag and you can eat it from there.

Each one is about 1,600 Calories if you eat everything and 40 grams of protein.

I am debating something else to bump the calories up to around 2,000. All of it will last for a couple years being vacum packed. I thinking this will be the ticket for hiking and ATV camping trips. The pack is a bit smaller than an MRE.
