Hearty potato chowder, a large 1 or 2 smaller servings.
| 2 | T | butter powder |
| 1 | T | diced dried celery |
| 1 | T | diced dried onion |
| 1 | c | dried hashbrowns |
| 3 | t | lower sodium bouillon (veggie, beef or chicken) |
| 1 | T | dried parsley |
| 1⁄4 | t | paprika |
| 1⁄4 | t | ground black pepper |
| 1⁄4 | c | dry milk |
| 2 | oz | cheddar cheese |
| 3 | c | water |
For the hash browns you can find a couple types in grocery stores, often hidden with mashed potatoes so look if you don't see them. The brand I used had salt added, taste before salting. You can also dry frozen hashbrowns at home and use those.
For the cheese, use either shelf stable cheddar or the real cheddar, depending on how long you will be gone - or how hot it is.
Dried celery flakes can be used, find those in the spice section of grocery stores.
Pack all the dry ingredients except for the milk in a sandwich bag. Pack the dry milk in a snack size bag.
In your pot place the water and the potato bag, bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile dice up the cheese.
Stir in the milk powder, then the cheese. Turn off the stove and let sit for a minute to melt.

Really versatile...
Add pouch or canned clams for clam chowder!
ADD BACON!
Bacon, bacon, bacon!
Bacon Indeed!
Yes, that would make it even tastier! A couple Tablespoons of bacon and it'd be heaven. Heck, even fux-bacon would be good - give it a smoky flavor!
