Bob, come on down and try some good ole country ham! Besides getting your sodium intake for a month :( , you'll develop some trust for it :D .

This is a super easy, tasty, and suprisingly light weight lunch or dinner.
Serves 2:
Divide one package ramen noodles between 2 pint freezer bags. (save the flavor pack for another day).
Add 1/4 c freeze dried mixed veggies to each bag.
In a separate bag, pack 2 salad dressing packets (Italian is our favorite) and 2 packets of parmesan.
About 30-45 minutes before ready to eat, add water to the noodles to cover and hydrate. To serve, drain any excess H2O, add the cheese and dressing.
If you want, you can also carry pepperoni or sausage to add to the salad, or chunk chees rather than grated.
Really a great, fresh taste!
We used this for lunch on an 8 day hike, and saved a second portion as lunch on the Voyager II on the way back from Rock Harbor.
