Backpacker's Pantry Three Sisters Southwestern Quinoa & Beans - Freeze Dried Backpacking & Camping Food - Emergency Food - 18 Grams of Protein, Vegan, Gluten-Free - 1 Count

It had great flavor just the right amount of spice! Filling and delicious!

After backpacking all day, this is a satisfying meal - I had trouble finishing it all. Great flavor and the spicy beans were perfect! This is proof that food out of a foil pack really can be delicious!

We pushed the "Easy Button" on our camping trip this past summer. Wow, did this change up our camping game! For a larger national park, like Olympic, Yellowstone, and Yosemite, these were very convenient when away from campsite and hangry! Just had these handy in the car with campstove, propane, and a kettle for boiling water and we could roam until our hearts content! Tasted great and ready in about 15 minutes. I would highly recommend you make a "reflectix cozy" for them. (Check out how to make them from Darwin on YouTube.) The reflectix cozy kept water and the food package contents hot for the duration of the recommended cook time. So, the ambient air doesn't cool off the water/food before cooking time is done. Super delicious! Super convenient!

I got to go on my first backpacking trip recently and wasn't really sure what to get, turns out this was the right choice! I was with some seasoned backpackers and didn't have to feel second rate to their meals or preparedness. I didn't think to stir/mix it extremely well as it was rehydrating, so I got a lot of extra seasoning and spice at the bottom. I can imagine how much better it would have tasted if the flavor and kick would have been evenly distributed, but even at that, it really had a good taste. I probably could have let it rehydrate a bit longer, but I was hungry and didn't mind a little texture hahaha. I says two servings, but I definitely ate all of it in one sitting and it was not too much.

It’s nice to see something other than lasagna and beef stroganoff! Warming, nourishing, and about as close to real food as freeze dried gets. Ideal portion for me at 5’10 and roughly 210 lbs on the trip where I ate this, but some people might need a little more. That’s what cliff bars are for, but something to keep in mind.
