Chicken, Rice & Veggies
This backpack meal is a favorite of my kids on a long day hike.
1 tbsp Dried Tomato, diced *
2 tbsp Dried Onion, chopped *
2 tbsp Dried Bell Pepper, chopped *
2 tbsp Dried Celery, chopped *
2 tbsp Dried Carrot, chopped *
2 tbsp Dried Whole Kernel Corn *
2 tbsp Cabbage, chopped *
2 tbsp Dried Peas *
1 1/8 cup Instant Rice
1/8 tsp Salt (adjust to taste as bouillon is salty too)
1/8 tsp Pepper
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Parsley Flakes
1 cube Chicken Bouillon, crushed
1/4 cup Chicken, cooked & chopped or one 10 oz can of Chicken *
* – Dehydrate items at home.
Vacuum seal or use a zip lock for the meat, vegetables and spices. Pack rice in another bag. Bring two cups of water to boil. Add meat, vegetables and spices and cook for a few minutes, cover and let stand for 15 minutes for everything to rehydrate. Bring water back to a boil, add rice and stir. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes. Stir and eat.
If you need meat, you can use canned chicken. Remove chicken from can and rinse with hot water to remove alot of the fat. Dehydrate and add to recipe. Treat the chicken like you would jerky as the remaining fat can go bad.
This dish makes enough for two nice sized servings. Drizzle with soy sauce if desired.
