Realistic non-cooler based menu planning

[noahgenda]

This is from backpacking experiences but I have a similiar low-to-no cooler plan.

Lentils and Rice, spice it up with a dried vegetable soup packet (soak in water for ~10 minutes first) and it makes a really great burrito/wrap with some hot sauce.
Dried mashed potatoes always works well to carb up if feeling low
Tuna packets and the like (I like these more than cans as less waste and packs down
Peanut Butter and honey on tortillas (I eat almost everything out of a tortilla)
Seven bean soup mix is readily available in most stores and all it needs is water and some time.

Also if not vegetarian things like a beef boullion cube can really add a nice taste to otherwise bland rice or beans concoctions.

Thank you guys!!! This post is really helping my menu planning! I want to save my cooler for fresh ice for cold drinks & little already sliced ready to eat ziplocs of vegetables ~ and although I think there's a stove in my camp, I'm trying to not to have to rely on having to cook anything.. the ideas here are great.

I can see how things might get monotonous but I doubt I'll wanna be slaving away in the kitchen anyways ~ too much to see & do!

Thank you again ~ I'm checking back here often as I put together my shopping list!
