    It is really good. Right up there with the lasagna. sure, it doesn't look like a nice piece of baked lasagna your mama made but it sure tastes pretty good--about the only thing I'd do is add some parm to it.

    I think that's the biggest part of getting something to taste good.

    especially for dehydrated or freeze dried meals. you got get a good rolling boil and already have the package open so the boil water goes straight in. and you gotta give it a good stir and shake and let it sit for 5 more min than suggested

    Rather than starting a new thread I thought I could get a better response here. I am new to the "camping out of my truck world". I just installed a camper shell and am interested in getting into camping with the wife. I want to start out slow at some of the local parks until we get familiar with what we will need. I still use my truck bed for hauling stuff so I am looking for a sleeping /storage setup that can be used for camping but light enough to be removed when needed. I don't need anything too complex; just a place to sleep with some storage. I have searched and saw a few threads but if anyone can provide some advice/pics/links I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Yeah definitely a sleep platform. There are some pretty sweet builds on the forum. It will take me a bit to find them but they are fairly easy to make depending on how much detail you want to go in to.

    Yeah. If I were to make one though I think I would get pretty creative with it to make it nice and easy to get my stuff.
