Book Reviews of Backpack Gourmet: Good Hot Grub You Can Make at Home, Dehydrate, and Pack for Quick, Easy, and Healthy Eating on the Trail

Book Review: excellent book...
Summary: 4 Stars

I got this book to get started into backpacking again after many years of not doing it. The recipes and instructions in this book sure beat the MRE's and expensive stuff you get from the store. I've tried a number of the recipes at home and so far so good. I'm not a fan of TVP, which a number of the recipes call for, but hey we all can't like the same stuff--that would be boring wouldn't it? so I just substitute and move on...

Summary of Backpack Gourmet: Good Hot Grub You Can Make at Home, Dehydrate, and Pack for Quick, Easy, and Healthy Eating on the Trail

Meals on the trail can be as delicious and varied as meals prepared at home. You can create meals to suit your tastes or diet--vegetarian, low fat, Asian, Italian. Meals prepared and dehydrated at home are compact and lightweight, perfect for the backpacker, and safer than packing perishable foods. The author shows how to prepare the meals so that they will travel well and will be easy to reconstitute in camp. The easy step-by-step instructions detail how to cook and dry lightweight, satisfying meals at home and then prepare them easily in camp--truly complete, instant meals. Includes over 160 recipes for soups, stews, pasta, casseroles, and breakfast and snack ideas as well as tips on drying food in a dehydrator or oven.
