I'm pretty much going to have to do all my own prep before hand - just got diagnosed with type II diabetes. (I'm trying to imagine the trail without pizza, and it's hard at this point, even though I don't eat much at home. And forget the 1/2 gallon challenge. . . ) At any rate, I decided that I'm going to go with a wider variety of protein than I otherwise would have so I don't get bored. I can make my own jerky, but I get sick of it pretty easily. Looking for freeze dried chicken, ham, and maybe even some sausage for the powdered eggs in the morning. I know I saw a web site where I can get this stuff, but I can't find it.
For the record, I tried low carb spaghetti, and it was awful - I told my husband that I'd rather go with the zuchinni shaved as "pasta" than eat that stuff. I guess stews it will be.
It's challenging enough to learn low carb cooking all at once - figuring out how I'll be able to handle the trail next year is a whole different challenge. Oh well, off to make my birthday low carb cheesecake! Life is not all about deprivation!
