Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I like dehydrated pintos, black beans, or split peas. With the addition of hot water, they make a nice bean 'mash' that works well as a dip or sandwich spread. With the addition of more hot water, they make soup. ~ LaDonna ~ On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 8:02 AM, Nancy Ball <bomag wrote: > > > > I'm looking for recipes for a bean-based travel food that I can just > stick in my pack and have some protein when other suitable foods are > scarce.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 How about chickpeas/garbanzo beans? You can bake them and add spices, then package them up for travel. ________________________________ Nancy Ball <bomag Wed, February 17, 2010 11:02:55 AM bean-based travel food  I'm looking for recipes for a bean-based travel food that I can just stick in my pack and have some protein when other suitable foods are scarce. I can always find calories, but protein is sometimes hard to find. Vacuum-packed might be a possibility but no cans or refrigeration.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Yes, that was my suggestion too. Check camping stores for " just add water " bean dips or refried beans.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Dried bean mixes are also very inexpensive in the bulk section of many health food stores. ~ LaDonna ~ On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 9:17 AM, pdw <pdworkman wrote: > > > Yes, that was my suggestion too.
