I like to portion granola into single serving baggies with powdered milk- just add water and that's breakfast. Lunch is granola, granola bars, dried fruit, jerky, etc. Dinner is usually pasta of some kind with a can of tuna or sardines. Something I usually do is to put a frozen steak deep in the middle of my pack wrapped in clothing, then pull that sucker out on, say, night #3 (when everyone else is eating dehydrated crap) and grill it over the fire. Mmmmmm.
