Gear Review: Packit Gourmet Big Easy Gumbo

Take the chill out of a winter evening with this hearty, delicious, stew-like entree. Packed with white-meat chicken, long-grain rice, tons of veggies, and topped with crunchy croutons, this savory gumbo had our staff fighting over the last ladle one cold night while camped on a glacier in Norway.

“I’d never guess it was dehydrated,” says one tester. “The tubes of concentrated turkey broth give it home-cooked flavor.” Prep couldn’t be simpler: Just add water. $7 (serves 1); 11.3 oz.; packitgourmet.com
