So today I am going to try to front load my food a little more. I always eat breakfast, but sometimes I don’t eat nearly enough.

I started out with Chris’ egg sammich! 2 pieces of whole wheat toast, 2 nuked eggs, 4 slices of turkey bacon, 2 slices of cheese, and just a splash of lite ranch and lite mayo. Yum, 550 cals of pure goodness.

I also signed up for a trail building workday this weekend, and next weekend I have a 3 day backpacking trip planned. It better start cooling off more, me no likey a big ass pack in 80 degree temps.

I need to start planning some portable food that is somewhat healthy to take backpacking. Lighter denser foods usually work best, just no refrigeration available obviously. They can be pretty extravagant as you really appreciate a nice hot meal on the trail. There is plenty of time to prepare your dinner too, so cooking actually gives you something to do out there. Any suggestions?
