One more idea for meals for vegetarians is to bring pre-roasted veggies that are prepped and ready to go. Cut yellow squash or zuccini into thin pieces for quick cooking on the trail. Toss them in a bowl with herbs de Provence or Italian seasoning and put on cookie sheet at 375 for 35 min. Let them chill in frig and put in small zip lock plastic bag and will keep for 3 days just fine on the trail. They do have some weight, but taste really great when you toss them in Annie's organic white cheddar mac and cheese. Nice to have fresh veggies on the trail.
I am a vegetarian and there are several meals that are offered by Annie's organics that are just great. It seems everyone is missing out on greens. Spinach is really lightweight and gives really important iron and minerals in food and can be used in wraps, soups, and Annie's Mac and Cheese dinners. You don't have to be locked into the meat thing.
