Notes
Creamy Potato Soup mix is a great way to get a potassium
rich meal into you when you are so tired you can't face
eating. It is easy to mix up, and quite affordable. Carry
a packet or two with you in your food bag, as a backup for
cold evenings as well. It rehydrates easily in a freezer
bag or in your mug.
You can add a couple Tablespoons shelf stable bacon or a 3
ounce packet of smoked salmon to make a hearty dinner. For
extra richness add in a packet of olive oil with the water.
Season to taste with salt and pepper as desired.
