Mountain House has been making freeze dried food for the backcountry since 1963. If you have been backpacking for awhile, you know that creating a fun, and exciting menu can be somewhat challenging. Freeze dried food is good, but it can get a little boring after awhile. Wraps are a popular food item in the backcountry; there easy to work with and stuff with meat, onions, rice, beans, etc. I’ve even made Pizza tortillas with peperoni, sause, and cheese. Lots of calories and fun to eat. Now, Mountain House has come up with a new line designed to be used as delicious filling for tortillas that you provide separately.
It features four initial flavors: Breakfast Skillet, Mexican Style Beef, Buffalo Style Chicken, and Barbecue Sauce with Beef. They all offer high calories per ounce ratios: Breakfast Skillet (680 calories/4.7-ounce serving), Mexican Style Beef (360/4.0), Buffalo Style Chicken (390/4.0), Barbecue Sauce with Beef (630/4.6).
Like all Mountain House foods, they are simplicity itself to prepare. Pour boiling water in the package. Let sit a few minutes. All four single-serving meals cost $6.40
Hey there, long time reader and lurker here with my first ever comment! My only daughter is getting married to her lovely mexican boyfriend soon, and I’m tasked with preparing the wedding arrangements! I thought enchiladas would be a good idea, so trying to find some good enchilada recipes. What do you think? Any other ideas?? Anyway, thanks for your hard work as ever… I’ll try to comment a little more on future posts.
