Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich

I'm officially hooked on not only the convenience, but also the flavor. These aren't overly expensive considering the shelf life, portability, convenience, and yummmm factor. #1 Be sure to follow the instructions for the amount of water to use and remove the dessicant pack that comes sealed inside. The various flavored meals all have different quantity of water required. Too much or too little will result in either soggy or not completely hydrated. #2 After I add hot water out of our instant hot tap which is plenty hot enough, I zip the bag, hold it along the zipped edge, then gently swish it back and forth left to right so the dry goods comes in contact with the hot water. #3 I cover the entire bag including the bottom, sitting upright, with several towels to hold the heat inside while it's hydrating. #4 When you open it to stir and check the hydration, it's not unusual for the meal to be fully hydrated by the time you unzip it to stir but be sure you follow the hydration time and don't rush it. The cooler the water, the longer it will take which is why I cover mine while it's hydrating, to keep it warm and prevent it from cooling too quickly. Paid Thai is one of our faves. It's only a tad spicy and it's got great flavor. We've also tried 5 other flavors and they're all good. The one that seems to have the least flavor is the Adobe flavored which doesn't seem salty enough and lacks robustness, but heck, if you're starving after a day of being out and about, it's a perfectly good meal even without all the salt some of the others contain. I'm sensitive to salt and a lot of foods taste too salty to me but not these. If you want more salt, you can always add it but I love that they don't already come too salty. I haven't had to add anything to any of these bags except the one I just mentioned. You have nothing to lose - try one and if you like it, go place another larger order like I did. I have a shelf full of Pad Thai and a couple other flavors we really like. They're great time-savers since I work from home and tend to not want to leave for food. Price seems comparable to a carry out meal at a Thai restaurant. As for how filling they are, there's enough in the package that by the time I'm done eating, I don't feel like I still need to snack. I'm just a tad beyond feeling full, like I should have stopped eating 5 or 10 bites before I reach the end, but I have no issue polishing off the whole bag in one sitting. I'm going to be a long-time customer of this company and I'm really glad to have found them on social media. Never heard of them before I saw an ad for dehydrated meals. It was Brand X compared to this brand and one of the commenters said they tried both Brand X and this brand and said these were much better so that's why I bought them here.

Kids love them, bought them for a camping trip with my 5 and 10 year old, ended up buying a case of them as they were requested for the youngest's birthday party...so what's not to like, good shelf life, good taste, lightweight for camping trips or just a snack around the house, great for winter, ice cream flavor without the chill on a snowy Sunday in December.

Not bad, tasty, quick, easy way to get your food fix while you're camping

I’ve tried many freeze-dried meals while backpacking and camping, but the Mountain House Beef Lasagna stands out as one of the best. It’s honestly surprising how delicious it is considering how incredibly easy it is to prepare. All you need to do is pour hot water into the pouch, wait, and enjoy. Yet the result tastes far closer to a homemade meal than typical trail food. The first thing that impressed me was the texture of the pasta. Instead of being mushy like many freeze-dried meals, the noodles rehydrate beautifully and retain a pleasant bite. The sauce is rich and flavorful, with a great balance of tomato acidity, beef savoriness, and a noticeable cheesy undertone. The overall taste is comforting and satisfying — exactly what you want after a long day on the trail. Another major plus is the convenience. The pouch serves as the bowl, which means no dishes to wash and minimal cleanup. When you’re tired at camp or trying to conserve water, this convenience makes all the difference. Although the package says “2 servings,” it works perfectly as a hearty single meal or a generous dish to share. The portion size is substantial and leaves you feeling full and energized. This is a freeze-dried meal I would happily keep not only for camping trips but also as an emergency food supply at home. The combination of taste, simplicity, and reliability makes it an easy five-star product. Highly recommended for backpackers, campers, or anyone looking for a quick, delicious, and dependable meal option.

It was good. I was disappointed that there was only 1 for the price, but it was definitely delicious!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: when I was in college, I, “accidentally” found my way into an old Cold War bomb shelter. There were lots of freeze dried meals, so I liberated a few, being a poor college student. After eating a couple of them, I decided that it would actually be better to die in a nuclear holocaust than to have to survive on those things. fast forward to 2025. I’ve tried a whole bunch of camping meals by many different manufacturers and they all have left me wanting for a variety of reasons. Either the food was bland or it was just disgusting or the packaging was bad. I heard that this brand was supposed to be really good. A friend of mine who is a nurse sent me a text message one night saying that she was hungry but the cafeteria was closed and nobody would deliver food that late. I sent her four of these meals, all different, and suggested that she keep one in her bag and one in her car for just such an occasion. She told me that they were delicious. I bought a bunch of them for myself and I have to agree. These meals are wayyyyy better than anything I’ve ever tried. They have great flavor, great texture and are substantial in size. The packaging is awesome. It is thick, heavy material with a zip lock that really holds in the moisture. This is important for two reasons. I add the hot water, seal the bag and let it sit for five minutes and then I turn it over upside down for another five minutes so that the remaining water drains down to the top of the bag and hydrates everything up there. I have yet to have a single drop leak out. Really a great value for the money at 10 bucks. I keep them around for those situations where I’m working at 2 o’clock in the morning and I am really hungry, but don’t want to take the time to make food. I can get a great meal in 10 minutes.

Good product

Excelente lasagna, pero difícilmente 2 porciones. Para una comida de $500 plus pesos me parece muy cara.

Product contains MSG in various forms - yeast extract , natural flavors etc. Im highly sensitive to MSG and had to discard the product after seeing the ingredients label. Buyers beware...
