Chicken Alfredo Pasta, by RightOnTrek
I tried a meal from a company which I had never tried before, RightOnTrek. It was Chicken Alfredo Pasta, and it was delicious. I was pleasantly surprised by this meal, and enjoyed the flavor and ease of cooking. This package is for one serving, and to prepare it you:
heat to boiling 6 oz of water
add the dry ingredients to a pot
add the 6 oz of water to the pot
heat for 4-5 minutes
let set for 3 minutes
They offer many dinners, lunches and breakfasts on the website, as well as meal and trip planning, and gear rental.
The RightOnTrek site, at rightontrek.com, has a rather complete backpack planning service, with trip selection, trip planning resources, menu planning resources, meals for sale, and gear rental. ALL the gear (stove, sleeping bag, tent, hiking poles, GPS beacon, pack (everything except clothes)) for 15 day trip came to $750 on their site, which is a far cry from buying a full set of gear yourself. That is $50 a day. If you were not sure you were going to get equipped for backpacking, this would be a way to try out the sport. Gear pickup seems to be in Glacier Natl Park, Montana.
