    Split peas soaked in water for 4 or so hours, pre-add seasoning.

    Ramen is also good after a few hours, gets warm in the pak/food bag..............good to go.

    Thanks very much Rocket Jones! I just started looking on TrailCooking.com - this site is amazing. I'm definitely excited to try the freezer bag methodology.

    backpackingchef.com has some good dehydrated at home meals. Seems pretty healthy and not a lot of preservatives or other add-ins you'd find in prepackaged food.

    I love the HungryHammockHanger's recipes, especially the BarBQued Spaghetti and trail beef stew. Beats any store bought dehydrated meal.

    Check him out on You Tube.

    Don't forget to use the name brand FREEZER thickness bags for better safety. I've used the $$ Store type/Wally type and have not had very good results. I usually use the quart size as well.

    Will split peas reconstitute for JetBoil cooking if I soak them all day?

    +1 but unfrozen water will do in a pinch.

    Peas are a tough legume; even after a 24 hour soak, it will take at least 45 minutes for them to soften and take the flavor of whatever type of soup or side you'll need.

    In our local grocer, we have these great dry soup mixes that reconstitute in ten minutes or so. I'll throw it in the freezer bag with choice of protein, some freeze dried veggies, and hot sauce--served with a nice crusty bread that'll last a few days in the pack.

    Dried tortellini (buy in grocery store in pasta aisle) dehydrated tomatoes and peppers - even kale! Some garlic salt, then add a little olive oil to the cooking water and voila! Tortellini soup. Very lightweight and surprisingly filling. And I love this recipe because I don't have to drain anything.

    I assume you're asking about hot water? I've found a few things that work with cold water: instant mashed potatoes, rolled oats, instant refried beans.
