Just pack along oil packed tomatoes then: No cooking, plus olive oil = healthy tasty fuel source.

2 pots? Easy, nestelled pots, big/small. Boil water and drop dried tomatoes into water, remove when rehydrated,chop.

I agree, when backpacking I rarely have two pots.

2 pots? No way. Why not throw the tomatoes in with the pasta for the last few minutes of cooking?
