Three Tips To Help You Prepare Less Expensive Backpacking Meals

-


Here are three tips to help you make your backpacking trip less stressful when it is time to eat.
  • Save the powered, packaged mixes from mac and cheese, ramen noodles and salad kits and pack them in food baggies. These flavor packets can be used later to add pizzaz to different dishes. 
When you buy the boxed food with the separate flavor packets, do not use the entire packet at one time. A little bit  of that seasoning goes a long way. 

You can save and store some of the unopened packets and use an opened packet two or three times.  

  • Take powdered milk in baggies. Use it in your coffee, cereal, instant potatoes and in your cooked dishes.
  • Margarine, even though it is not good for you, will travel well. Just make sure it is tightly paced in a leak-proof container. As an alternative, you can make your own butter, on the trip.
