New to the site. I've been reading the forum for a while and have learned some great tips. I'm an experienced back country hiker and I'm prepping for my first back country hunt. NE Corner of WA, Mule deer are the primary target, also have tags for black bear. We are biking in about 6 miles and then hiking in from there. 5 days not including getting in and out.
I have most of my food packed up except for breakfast. We'll be camping a little lower and getting high to glass, and I'd like something that I can eat while I'm glassing. I don't like to eat at 0' Dark 30 and then haul my but up the mountain.
Each days bag contains the following:
Starbucks VIA
Black Tea (lunch warm up)
Spice Tea (decaf for evening warm up)
Honey Stick( for tea)
Sugar Packet (for tea)
MRE entree (Lunch)
Mountain House Pro-pack (Dinner)
MRE crackers
MRE Jalapeno Cheese spread/ MRE Nuttella spread (alternating) FYI: MRE crackers and Jalapeno cheese spread are like CRACK! Love!
Sardines in Olive Oil
Tapitio Hot Sauce Packet
Quest Bar (pretty tasty protein bar)
Protein bar (forgot the brand for the moment, but it's a candy bar yummy version- not the chalk block stomach anchor kind)
I'll probably add some Honey Stinger Chews as well.
Calorie count if I eat everything is about 1700-1800. Looking for breakfast ideas to bump me over 2k. Tasty, easy, light, decent protein. All "cooking" will be done via Jetboil Sol. Ideally no food in the Jetboil, just water.
Considering adding items below if I can figure out a clean packaging method. I currently use both. Love the energy drink, pre/post workout or when I'm dragging. The Barleans, is good in a protein shake. Other people just do water, haven't tried it that way yet.

I also have a goody bag with a few pick me up items. MRE Hash-browns with bacon and maple sausage!. lol Starbucks VIA Latte's (yes one is Pumpkin Spice, lol)
Breakfast ideas? Thoughts?
Thanks
