I recently came across a guy who goes by the name babelfish5. He is an avid hiker/hammock hanger.

He has a real talent for coming up with the most AMAZING meals you can make from scratch for the trail. He gives them all away for free on his website (he is also on itunes, youtube, boxee, etc.).

For instance, my new favorite: TRAIL PESTO. He uses the following ingredients:

Trail Pesto

3/4 cup of fresh basil
2 cups fresh chopped cilantro
2 cups fresh chopped parsley
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon salt
3 cloves minced garlic
1 cup water

He does dehydrate it (since there is no oil in this recipe). Comes out amazing!

Go to his website for the entire recipe and instructions (click on recipe..its one of the top recipes listed):

All his recipes are cheap and easy (though some take a little bit of time....but more than worth it). His site is similar to this one, he offers a great service, and only offers the opportunity for you to make a donation if you want to help. Check out his site if you have the time.

A good site I found is Backpacking Chef. Chef Glenn does a great job modifying recipes for hiking the Appalachian Trail- and they work just as well for canoeing and camping in the BWCA!

Thank you... and thank you!

Both of these sites look very good.

Thanks for the site. Always lookin for new recipes. I also use the Backpacking Chef site. Love that bean bark stew.

I like the recipes at trailcooking.com. Just to put a third link so this thread is like a dehydrated recipe database. :)

Very nice. Always looking for new ways to please my palate!

Not a bad idea...creating a thread listing only websites with dehydrated trail food recipes. Should start a new thread with a new title. What should it be titled? Favorite dehydrated recipe links?
