Breakfast. Zip lock bag. 4 crushed up weetabix or muesli. 2 spoons of milk powder. 1 spoon of sugar. Add warm or cold water. Job done. That or a full English 😋
I recently tried Proteinworks stuff . Their breakfasts are yummy, and the savoury stuff is not bad either. I got bored of Huel, hence me trying something new. I recently got some nice tent meals in their sale, that's also something to look out for, especially if you are looking for vegan options. Supermarket things I tried, to be budget friendly, were he little instant flavoured couscous packets from Lidl. I add either dried tomatoes or some beef jerky into those to give them more substance. These bars from Jimmy Joy look promising and a good up and go alternative for breakfast .
Oooh some really interesting ideas there! Thank you! Yes someone else mentioned the Tent Meals were quite good, I’ll have to check out protein works, I’ve not heard of them before 😄 omg yes couscous, how could I forget that! I love the sachets, and they are so cheap too x thanks for watching 🤗🤗🤗
@@DrunkOnWanderlust ….. I think long videos put some people off, due to shorter concentration spans but I watch my favourite channels on the big screen and they’re better than anything on tv or Hollywood movies. Thanks again 💜🍻
Hello, nice to see you again, you're both looking well, looking forward to watching the plans for the year achieved, third time lucky Steve 🍀 there's all sorts things out there to choose from, i always take a bag or three of beef jerky, noodles are a favourite, i remember when they were 9p a pack from netto, if i'm only out for a couple of days i cook meals at home and put them in zip lock bags, the tika masala lentils sound good, might be worth a try, love the bloopers ❤
Hi Mark! Great to hear from you, omg 9p !! Inflation is a cruel mistress 🙈🙈 I’ve experimented today baking savoury flapjacks for our hiking weekend, they are actually amazing … I’m gonna do a blog post about the so stay tuned lol x thanks for watching
Cracking video guys, what a team, wishing you both every success on the Cape trail, definitely third time lucky, you both endured unbelievable weather last year, 100% respect and making the right call. 👌👍
Greetings and great you're back. I use all those things you've mentioned. As a diabetic some food types are out. Keep powdered eggs for cakes. I got a pack of rice crackers from a Chinese supermarket in Preston opposite the station - they weigh nowt and look like a plastic square until dropped in hot oil when they look familiar. I make my own MRE's and snack bars. Plus a bits bag from ration packs. I could make my own Bitong too with my dehydrator. I always have some glucose tabs in my bag due to my health. Tiny tins of Makerel. Peanut butter is a cyclists staple. Trying to get posts of food packs is dodgy, do Lidl, Aldi.
Hi there Mark!!! 😄🙌 rice crackers? Hmm not sure about that I don’t like rice cakes so not sure I would be into them x you’ll have to send me your recipe for snack bars … I made savoury flapjacks yesterday xx was amazing
I dehydrate my own stuff you can do most things and rehydrate just like the firepot etc meals and you can do jerky lol I also buy freeze dried veggie stuff and peanut/coconut powder and add them to pot noodles/ramen, Idaho potato and big on wraps and sweaty mini cheeses lol. But generally don’t do the breakfast lunch dinner I eat stuff whenever I want it 🙄
Thanks for the tips! Yes Steve bought a dehydrator last year and we have tried with different vegetables but not tried meat yet ♥️ appreciate you watching! X
I love tentmeals, good natural food, tiny and light to carry. All meals covered. Or, cous cous with added veg or saltanas etc. I love a Wayfarer or Ration pack meal too.
Real Turmat is my absolute favourite, even their snaaaaaaaaack bars are great. Outdoor Provisions nut butter sachets are to die for, I'm so glad they do cashew and almond and not just peanut/hazelnut as I am allergic (would be my last trail otherwise!). I always try to look for discount codes and then get a few extra to save for later. Love my porridge in the morning! I have a lot of dehydrated mushrooms from foraging which could be nice with noodles, couscous etc. Looking forward to your adventures!
Ahh loved this. I'm trying to find the right thing to take for when we're on the road for ages without access to a fridge. Would Jimmy's work do you think? Re taking stuff to add to noodles, I'm a big fan of my dehydrator for fruits and veggies. But you can also make your own meat jerky in these which would definitely save money and mean you've got lightweight protein on hand. I think things like pumpkin seeds are also a winner to get keep your magnesium levels up and help avoid muscle cramping. Loved the bloopers section 😂 great video as always ❤
Great video On a long hike (say over 20days), what I’ve noticed is that hikers don’t think of food as ‘breakfast, lunch, dinner’, but as calories, etc, or as ‘food’ to consume Nothing says you have to have traditional ‘breakfast’ items at breakfast….the key is fuel to the body, and most I’ve hiked with snack all day on ‘food’
Hey Rachel, thanks for watching 😝 yeah we were really impressed with it! I was thinking flavour wise it might be a bit bland but really pleasantly surprised xx defo worthwhile to save some money plus get all the nutritional benefits x
Was just wondering if you have to carry extra water to hydrate your foods or do you carry a water filter and obtain it from the wild? Just thinking a hydated backpacking meal might not be much heavier with no need to add water? Must say the meal you trialled is worth a try.
Hi there David, I just carry a filter bottle which is extremely lightweight … I filter as I go along so no need to carry extra water, we usually camp next to a water source
Yeah I understand 🤗 I’m always on a tight budget myself on the trails, I think as they are a meal replacement bar I would have one as my lunch … the equivalent of 2/3 other snacks … then it starts to make more sense.. but I totally get you!!! Life is so blooming expensive atm arrgghh 🙈🙈 Thanks for watching, have a great hiking season!!!

Sounds great! Imagine a dehydrated full English that actually tasted good …… someone needs to invent this
Good to have you all back after a long Winter 😊
Thanks 😝 it’s good to be back!! Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year x
Ho my godfather's it's good to have you back 🎉🎉🎉
😃😃😃😃
Power bars are the best for sustenance 🤔🤔🤔

Thank you! Will do! 😄😄 good to be back!!! Can’t wait to start making trail vids again
@@DrunkOnWanderlust ….. I think long videos put some people off, due to shorter concentration spans but I watch my favourite channels on the big screen and they’re better than anything on tv or Hollywood movies. Thanks again 💜🍻
Bed & breakfast for me on the trail sandwich jelly babies & hot chocolate drink.
Jelly babies are a win from me!!! You’re speaking my language!!! X 😄

Best hiking snack, Bananas.
I do love bananas … but heavy to pack for a long distance trail though, although the dried banana chips are good! 😃😃😃
Belvita breakfast biscuits with jam, I buy jam in 25gram sachets, very convenient.
Cracking video guys, what a team, wishing you both every success on the Cape trail, definitely third time lucky, you both endured unbelievable weather last year, 100% respect and making the right call. 👌👍
Fingers crossed! 🤞🏻 so glad you enjoyed the video x thanks so much for watching

I love mushrooms! I’d really like to go on a foraging course one day 😄🙌 I wouldn’t have a clue what I was picking atm x
We are always on a different trail when you are Scotland but maybe catch when you go to Arran
Yaasss hopefully!!! Would be nice to say hi 😃😃 I’m really looking forward to that one x
great to see u back
Thanks 🥰 great to be back!!! X
Thanks Kerry. I look forward to seeing more of your cheerful backpacking adventures this spring and summer. They sound great. x
Thanks so much! 😄😄🙌 I can’t wait to get back out on the trail x

Thanks 🙏😝 yes I’ve taken some of their stuff with me this weekend for the hike, the evening meals are actually really nice 👌🏻
The bloopers had me crying with laughter. Looking forward to hitting a trail tomorrow with the group.
Me too! Can’t wait …. Yeah they made me laugh a lot when I was editing them

Good point! … I still tend to eat a breakfast and dinner though and just snack in between x
Love this the bloopers 😂 I definitely need to give the bars ago!
Can't wait to hike with you again! 😁
Please do! Let’s do something fun
Love this!! ❤❤
Love you ♥️
Hi Kerry, love the video, lots of useful information. Thank you. I like the big bag of hydrated food, I think I'll have to give that a go.
Hey Rachel, thanks for watching 😝 yeah we were really impressed with it! I was thinking flavour wise it might be a bit bland but really pleasantly surprised xx defo worthwhile to save some money plus get all the nutritional benefits x
I was only thinking about you today 😯
😃😃😃😃
Happy nice video 😊
Thank you 🤗
Ahhhh, i love these people.
😃😃🙌🙌🙌🙌
Cleveland way would be a nice trail for you too doo.
I’ve done it in 2012, loved it! But Steve hasn’t done it yet x
@@DrunkOnWanderlust The coast to coast is a very nice option too !
It is high up on my to do list I just need to work out a date. @@DrunkOnWanderlust
I did the Southern Upland Way, Coast to coast across Scotland, A great trail. @@BENTWOONEZERO
@@nevertooldforwanderlust I mean St bees to Robin hoods bay route across the north of England. wainwrights trail.

Thanks!

Bars look great but definitely not in my budget even with a discount!

Think it would be ok if you could but singles instead of a box. Honestly look fab though. @@DrunkOnWanderlust
Great video baby xxx

I’m on my way
Honey and porridge!
