To save time and fuel look for pasta that cooks in under 7 minutes. Both sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms can be found in most grocery store produce departments, look up high and down low to find them!
At home:
Pack the pasta and dried vegetables in a sandwich bag. In a second bag pack the seasonings through walnuts. Tuck the oil in.
In camp:
Bring the water to a boil in your pot, add in the pasta package. Cook for time on the pasta package. Take off the stove, drain off most of the remaining water, leaving a Tablespoon or so behind.
Toss the pasta with the olive oil and seasoning bag. Season to taste with extra salt and ground black pepper if desired.
