You know what are fucking dank? Those little packages of Idahoan Loaded Mashed Potatoes. So easy to make and weigh nothing.

Instant rice
Those noodles that are in skinny bags. Knorr maybe? I forget the brand.
Pasta + a tube of tomato paste(like toothpasr tube but metal)

And of course the 5dollar meals in a bag like mountain valley

Fresh eggs!

What's the cheapest for calorie/energy ?

I bet it's just pasta + some ingredient that you can add go it like a packet of olive oil, or even packed tuna

>cheapest

Why? Your food should be the best you can get and that is not always the cheapest.

You can make anything in the woods that you can make at home. You just need the right cooking vessel for your stove. That including frying, deep frying, baking, boiling, ect. The only one I think you can't really do is broiling. lol

The main concern is weight. How much extra weight do you want to carry to make x food in y manner? To combat this you can bring dehydrated stuff. That can be pretty much anything from ready made meals to tea, to flour, to veggies/fruit. If you have a food dehydrator you can actually dehydrate full meals and rehydrate them later. Good examples are chili and stew, but there are 100s of you can dehydrate as a full meal that can be ready to eat with a pot to boil water in.

Just take protein bars and oatbran

Couscous is really quick and easy to cook, but is dependent on you adding lots of stuff to make it edible. Without spices and other dried stuff thrown in it's basically edible styrofoam pellets.

If you can find "Libby's Seasoned Beef Crumbles" or a similar product, you can conceivably make some sort of trail taco using tortillas and a little baggy of spices. Never done it, but it's a different option.

These work fine, but they're really really salty. Just keep some extra drinking water handy if you're going to make them.

If you're going to make pasta, you should probably make vermicelli (I think it's also called "angel hair"). Since it's much smaller diameter than spaghetti it cooks much faster so you burn less fuel. The tomato paste tube is a good idea if you can find it.

Pasta with pesto and some salami or other cured meat is very simple and very satisfying after a long day walking.
