Ingredients

  • 3 carrots finely diced
  • 1 lb ground meat of your choice very lean
  • 1/2 onion
  • 8 oz mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1/4 cup coconut aminos or soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon gelatin optional
  • 10 oz butternut squash frozen
  • Salt to taste optional
  • Dehydrated cauliflower rice or instant rice
  • Butter or butter powder optional

Instructions

  1. Mix gelatin with coconut aminos and set aside
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat brown meat, onions, and mushrooms together. Take extra care to break the meat up into small pieces.
  3. Meanwhile in a pan slowly warm up frozen butternut squash, until it is defrosted. Then puree with a stick blender or in a traditional blender.
  4. Once the meat is browned add squash puree, carrots, curry powder, and coconut aminos mixture.
  5. Simmer until the carrots are soft.
  6. Line a dehydrator tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat and evenly spread curry out, no more than a ¼ inch thick.
  7. Dehydrate at 165 °F or the highest setting on your dehydrator, for 12-16 hours, until the food is completely dehydrated.
  8. Once all the food is completely dried, let cool to room temperature.
  9. In 3 mylar bags, equally, divide all the ingredients. A kitchen scale can make this easier.
  10. Add dehydrated cauliflower rice or instant rice to each bag.
  11. Add a desiccant packet.
  12. Try to get all the air out you can and seal bag with iron or hair straightener.

In the Backcountry
