Where can I get dried refried beans in the Seattle area? Eastside would be even better. I am a picky eater, so I want them as close to plain as possible. Thanks.

PCC used to have them and probably still does. You might also check the bulk section at QFC - they have a surprising assortment of stuff. I love to bring dried reefers, rice and tortillas - Mmmm carbs!

In Whole Foods bulk section (at least the Roosie store), they have dried black bean "soup" and I think also dried pinto bean "soup". I've tried them and thought they were very bland, not sure there isn't any seasoning of any sorts, but I had to add some and I have a pretty sensitive palate. Or get yourself a food dehydrator. Right now I am drying two jars of marinara sauce, some peas, canned chicken, quinoa and nuts. It'll be dry sometime tonight. If you have a dehydrator or plan to get one, I have a secret (not really) that made me feel like the first time I was able to ride my bike: parchment paper.

Look in the Mexican food section at QFC or any Food Pavilion store. I haven't noticed any flavor differences between the brands, but I don't eat them plain either. Reconstituted ground beef, instant rice mix, cheese, taco sauce, tortilla - Oh yeah, that there's a meal.

My wife and I have a beach hike recipe we call "cement" that is basically one part dried reefers and one part instant rice. It sticks to your ribs. Where do you get dried ground beef?

You have to make it yourself, but it's worth the effort. How to do it

Cool! I'll definitely try it. I'm sure our "cement" could use some "rubble" wink.gif The closest I've come to tacos was making my sister chicken fajitas on a trip as a surprise. I packed in a can of white chicken meat and containers of quac and sour cream, in addition to an onion, the seasoning mix and tortillas. Dang that was good! I might try that again, too. Now they have chicken in the little pouches like the tuna.

Be sure to do taco seasoning for the special "taco rubble" as well as the kind with normal S and P on it. Can't remember if Strider tells you thins or not, but after cooking, when you drain the GB, rinse it to get more fat off of it. Then you can add taco mix and water, cook off the water, then dry the meat. Dried GB is just about perfect BP food. up.gif

Also, cook chicken sausage and dehydrate chicken sausage the same way. Excellent in backcountry lasagna and spaghetti.
