This is a bit more complicated than our usual ramen or tortellini dinner in the backcountry, but it’s relatively easy, feeds at least 6 people if needed, and is damn good!

– Burrito Recipe –

Tools:

2 Pots and 2 Cookstoves

1 Hot Fire (or a 3rd Pot/Cookstove if no fires allowed, or you’re using dehydrated beans)

Spoons/sporks

Ingredients:

6 Flour Tortillas

1 Can Refried Beans (or dehydrated beans for less weight)

2 Pouches of Instant Rice

1 Lb of Lean Ground Beef, Dehydrated

1 Packet of Taco Seasoning – mix with dehydrated beef in a ziplock at home

Block of cheese of choice

Avocado

Bell Peppers (optional)

Hot Sauce Packets (steal from your local taco bell)

Water

Do:

Boil two pots of water (one full, one 1/4 full). In the full pot toss in the instant rice packets (follow the box instructions, usually needs to boil for 10 min). In the 1/4 pot, stir in your dehydrated beef with taco seasoning, add more water if needed. Keep cooking and stirring for about 10 min until the beef is hydrated and tastes flavorful. Meanwhile have a friend heat the can of beans in the fire, or re-hydrate your dehydrated beans in the third pot.

As an extra not-necessary-but-delicious addition, we fire roasted some bell peppers. Once hot and lightly charred, slice up for serving. Slice up the avocado. Slice up the cheese into thin easily meltable shreds. Display your hot sauce packets.

Once everything’s cooked, lay out your tortilla, load it up with all the fixings of your choosing, and roll it up tightly. Burritos!
