Breakfast Alternatives

Pho is easy to make and it's considered a breakfast food

I struggle as well.

At base camp, I eat a pop tart and drink a Core Power Elite Vanilla shake.

This year, I cooked a couple pounds of bacon and would grab a few strips and eat them cold to mix things up.

I have done cereal with powdered milk before when backpacking and have also done regular milk in a cooler out of base camp. Those are fine, but do take longer. In the mornings, I’m usually cold and just want to get moving as soon as possible.

I don’t like oatmeal or bars and I’m too cheap to buy freeze dried breakfast. I’ve been alternating between granola with nido powdered milk with dried fruits and chocolate chips and instant grits with Parmesan cheese and either dried ham, venison breakfast sausage, or bacon bits. I like these options because I can shake up the mix and they’re easy to make, you can get different granola flavors and dried fruits to change the flavors and the grits are similar with different meats and seasonings I add. I’m going to try sweet mixes for my grits this year just for extra variety.

Coffee and some oatmeal. Just pour the hot water right into the packet. Doubles as a hand warmer.

Another vote for cereal and powdered milk in a baggie! I usually just eat granola cereal. It seems to be more filling and last longer through the morning. I have also just done the Carnation Instant Breakfast powder with powdered milk. Super easy and seems to be filling.

I take oatmeal packets, can eat it dry/cold, or warm up some water

It's crazy how well the food industry has marketed breakfast food as a whole. If it doesn't fit in certain definitions people think they can't eat it. I'm no different. But I love biscuits n gravy from peak.
