Pesto noodles with sundried tomatoes

Ingredients

• 1 Pesto powder packet

• Sundried tomatoes

• 2x Mozzarella string cheese (this keeps for 3 - 4 days unrefrigerated)

• 2 rice noodle cakes

• Dehydrated vegetables

• Forage for additional greens

• Protein (like hard sausage that keeps unrefrigerated for several days)

Cooking instructions:

Put noodles and dried veg + dried tomatoes in pot (+ foraged greens). Just barely cover with water. Cook for 5 minutes - most of the water will be absorbed. Add pesto powder. Shred your string cheese and add while still hot. Top with a protein. YUM!

Specific Recommended Ingredients and where to find them:

Rice and Millet Noodles (These tasty ones are available at most fancy grocery stores for ~$8 for 4 cakes, like Whole Foods & PCC. Any thin rice noodle in the Asian section at a grocery store will also work but have less calories.)

Dried chopped vegetables (I bought this one from Amazon for ~$10 and it works in tons of recipes)

Pesto Powder (Look in the baking or spice aisle, usually $1.50)

Sundried Tomatoes (Trader Joes has these in a convenient little package and you can add them to any meals!)

Salami_(Cheapest at Trader Joes but I have seen this same one at Whole Foods and World Market)_

Stove and Pot (Soto Amicus with cookset- it juuuust fits the noodle packets, was the cheapest option at ~$50-60 at REI when I started backpacking and has proved reliable and easy to use!)
