Last week, 5 miles into the woods, with no refrigeration or cooler I made the following things in one pot.
Day 1: Spaghetti and mushroom marinara sauce with parmesan cheese. Sauce came in a pouch. Boiled the pasta and added the sauce after I strained the water. Put it on simmer and stirred it for a minute to warm up the sauce.
Day 2: Oriental shrimp and noodles. Took two bricks or Ramen. One was Oriental flavor and the other was Shrimp Flavor. Boiled for 2 minutes, added 1 can of cooked shrimp. Added Ramen flavor packs as well as some curry, garlic, and pepper.
Day 3: Louisiana Chicken and Rice: 1 bag of Riso brand black beans and rice. Cooked that up, added 1 can of chunk chicken, stir, add some spices..Cayenne, black, and red pepper along with garlic and some salt. Yummy!
Carried all of it in a backpack, cooked it all on a single burner backpacking stove. I can cook just about anything in the backcountry that I can cook in my house.
