SHEPARDS PIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love that sh!t.

I lived for a month on it at basic training. While the rest of the troops had to eat the hard/preserved rations, I had a medical reason not to. So, I brought my own ultra-light backpacker's cookset, stove and fuel. Before basic had started, I dehydrated the vegetables, ground them into a powder, dehydrated 15 lbs of hamburger down to about 1.5 lbs, grabbed a bunch of powdered mashed potatoes, portioned it all into 1-meal sized vacuum bags and away I went. I was able to carry all my meals for a week in less space than the troops were carrying theirs for 2 days. Further, my beef, vegies and potatoes reconstituted and cooked faster than they could get their meals ready, and I was the envy of everyone (including the instructors, who are supposed to be hard-asses....I proved to be the exception of many rules on basic....its my nature hehe).

For that, I will always love the shepard's pie

Cheers
