Veggy meals?
|
Im going to the city of rocks for the weekend and my girlfriend is a vegitarian. Anyone have good ideas for all 3 meals where we can both be happy? |

I was shopping online a couple years ago and found Backpackers Pantry FD foods to be vegetarian and very tasty. They do have their name website, and phone for questions at 800-641-0500. I live on FD JetBoil-simple meals, or military MRE's for weeks at a time when out on long climbing trips. |

I recently discovered MTR brand read-to-eat dinners. They are cheap, yummy and most of them are vegetarian. Both my local indian food markets sell them for $2 or less. I recommend the Mixed Vegetable Curry. Cook some instant white rice to make it more filling. |

Pasta with pesto or red sauce (add meat on the side). |

Also what I like to do sometimes is buy the Knorr teriyaki noodles and chuck in a few handfuls of peanuts while it's cooking, sounds kind of weird but it's pretty good. |

I hit the MTR link but found no online shopping location. Where do you find MTR products?,,, or how do you order them up? |

Beer boiled Tofu...amazing, also you can boil up some brats in the same go, preferably after you boil the tofu of course. |

Lentils have fueled peasants for centuries.Also good in burritos, or tacos, is TVP with taco seasoning. Not a bad substitute for meat, and it keeps, good for road trips. |

I'd reccomend tempeh instead of tofu. Way better texture and taste IMO. |

+1 on the Indian packages. |
