Favorite winter lunch

[magic_game03]

every once in a while im careless and some crown spills in with my apple cider drinks at night,pretty tasty.

No fair, I'm trying to play a strait game and you throw down crown as a trump card. Ok-ok, so I add JD to my Ramen and it acts as antifreeze. Still, I say Ramen.

This is an interesting topic. I've been reading a lot about freezer bag meals. Seems one could freeze dry some meals then just add water and put it in the cousy to heat thru and then eat. Any body try this during the winter?

I do freezer bag all year round.

Well that's a little old school ... but you reminded me of what I have in the supply box ... A Japanese Rice Bento.

Here is the American Version...

Here is the Japanese Version

Inside is two plastic screw Tupperware. One for Rice and the other for vegetables and sauce.. (that one is smaller) In Japan the wifes cook fresh hot lunch meals after the husband is already at work and this massive delivery system - gets the right rice bowl to the man at lunchtime....Premium Bento Boxes will have a cozy.

Here is what I used it for, my son wanted a hot Mac and Cheese for school lunch... So we made it ahead of time and put boiling water in the lower tupperware. The hot Mac stayed hot for 5 hours.

Here is the Bento Cookbook for hot lunches Japanese style..

For lunch make-in-camp while water boils for breakfast (2 packs of carnation instant breakfast like cocoa and 3 packs of instant oatmeal), whole wheat bagel with peanut butter or nutella, stashed in inner pocket inside a zip lock along with a couple chunks of sharp cheddar or other cheese. Eat it on the go along with snacks such as dried fruit, Fritos, potato sticks, Snickers (of course), Probar. An inside pocket will warm everything up enough that you don't break your teeth when you bite into them. I avoid stopping for lunch in winter unless I have to pull out my tarp or sleeping bag to dry out dampness in the sun. Otherwise, I try to eat something every two hours from sun up to sun down.

Note to those carrying olive oil for extra calories and flavor: it tends to solidify in cold temps.
