Eatin' good on the trail

I love to cook. And I love to hike. So one of my goals was to have really yummy food out on the trail.

I've created a few recipes, and one of them recently was published in Backpacker magazine. Pretty cool.

But even better are the reviews that backpackers themselves have been giving my son's favorite recipe ... here's the latest:

I tested out your recipe that appeared in Backpacker , and after dehydrating it and tasting it at home, I was skeptical. I love hummus, but am not a big spaghetti fan.

The combination of tomatoes and hummus scared me!This past weekend, while in the Red River Gorge, I packed some of your hummus along with my usual chorizo and cheese.

Out on the trail, after a tough day of bushwacking, I tried your recipe......and I couldn't get enough. I ate three tortillas with your hummus and was craving more! The chorizo and cheese went untouched and probably won't be packed in the future, saving me 1/2 lb or more!

I don't know why, but I was craving the flavor of these torillas after my first few bites.Thanks for the recipe!

What a tremendous compliment! Thanks, Jim!!
