Why not? Forget the rules while you are backpacking in the presence of the open sky. Muesli and granola cereal is fast to prepare, loaded with calories, and tastes great.
Hikers eat energy bars, trail mixes, candy bars, and other packaged snacks for convenience. However, most snack foods offer zero nutrition, highly processed ingredients, added sweeteners, and an overabundance of sodium. So, the next time you need a quick and easy lunch or dinner meal that doesn’t require cooking, try cereal.
Outdoor Herbivore makes calorie-dense muesli cereal with dried fruit, nuts, and seeds mixed with instant organic soy milk. All you have to do is add water, stir, and enjoy a creamy cereal.
Of course, you can also make an instant dry cereal mix by adding instant milk powder to your own cereals and packaging it into a ziplock bag or waterproof rehydration bag. Some ideas include instant grains (sprouted cereal grains, rice flakes/crisps, quinoa crisps, kamut crisps, rolled oats, barley/wheat flakes, corn flakes, sorghum crisps, spelt flakes, wheat germ), dried fruits (apricots, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, coconut flakes, dates, figs, mango, raisins), mixed nuts and seeds (almonds, pecans, pepitas, walnuts, flax seed, chia seeds, hemp seed, sunflower seeds ), natural flavors (cinnamon, protein powder, vanilla powder) and milk powder to make it creamy (grind up rolled oats to a fine powder if you can’t find milk powder).
