In reply to Chloe. I think it's a shelf stable pouch of chicken.

A staple of our backpacking trips—to celebrate our final night!

Could try dehydrating tinned flakes of turkey using the backpackers guide. I’d also add dehydrated corn. This is actually one of our menu ideas for our next trip, torn between it and stroganoff.

This is a silly question but do you need to keep the chicken cold until ready to eat? Do you freeze or just eat it the same day. I imagine it wouldn’t be safe for more than a couple hours unrefrigerated right?

The mashed, gravy and chicken were delicious! The cranberry and stuffing didn’t quite turnout as good as expected but was enjoyable in the evening solitude of our backcountry campsite. We took the whole package of potatoes and used it all, adding the powdered milk too. Thanks for your great ideas!

I wonder how it would turn out if all ingredients were put together in one ziplock and simplicity added the hot water and chicken? I usually in freezer bag cook as hate clean pots etc… do hate the plastic waste though…
