Tim
and Christine spent many hours researching this book which was
published in 2000. Drawing on their own experiences and that of
acquaintances, Tim and Christine have provided us with yummy recipes
that reflect many cultures and tastes.
Most of the
recipes require at home preparation. Many call for dehydrating
or drying the food and then re-hydrating it on the trail. The
book has a nutritional breakdown for each recipe and packable
cooking directions to take with you on the trail. There are even
instructions on how to grow your own fresh sprouts in your backpack.
I've tried
several of the recipes with great success. You will find everything
from almonds to zucchini in this resource. You'll also enjoy reading
the anecdotes and appreciate the way the recipe instructions are
divided into two parts; at home and on the trail. There are recipes
for both vegetarians and meat eaters. I found that I could easily
modify the meat recipes to suit a vegetarian menu by increasing
the amount of veggies and omitting the meat.
Lipsmackin'
Backpackin' is a veritable compendium of excellent recipes with
the backpacker in mind. This well written recipe book contains
over two hundred pages of mouth watering recipes to enhance your
outdoor experience.
