Backpacking: Dinner


All the backpacking dinners I have had are nothing to write home about. Dinners have been planed and seem to be good in concept but I am always disappointed. Fortunately, I have mastered the after-dinner hot cocoa made with mexican hot chocolate (no dried milk).

I need backpacking dinner inspiration. Here are the constraints: all ingredients must not need refrigeration; we have a backpacking stove and the only heat setting is high so no simmering or cooking things for 20 minutes; everything must be cooked in one sitting, no turning the stove on, off, and then on again; everything must be cooked in one pot. What is your favorite backpacking dinner?
