What to Eat When on a Thru Hike?

2/4/2019

5 Comments

As we are preparing for our thru hike of the Appalachian Trail we are very focused on what food we are bringing. Food is a HUGE component for a successful trip. And it’s not just the type of food, but the right types of foods so you have proper nutrition for your body to function at its best. Also, when on a budget, making our own meals is drastically cheaper than buying prepared dehydrated meals. So we are going to talk about what we will be eating when doing our long distance hike.

We have chosen to prepare most our own meals in order to:
· Save some money
· Make sure we are getting the proper nutrition

Caramel Sticky Buns are a family favorite! My mom would make these for special occasions or if we had guests staying over at our home growing up. The delicious aroma of the cinnamon and caramel wafting through the house as the rolls are baking brings back those special memories!

I hope you enjoy this recipe!

Being from a Greek family food is an important part of life! Avgolemono soup is the Greek version of the American classic chicken noodle soup. This recipe is very flavorful while being quick and easy to make. I remember having this soup vividly as a kid as it was not like any other “traditional” soups I’ve had. But it was one of our traditional soups we had while visiting my grandpa’s Greek restaurant on a cold winter night in Wisconsin!

Avgolemono “Lemon Soup”

Ingredients:
1 small whole chicken
6-9 Cups of water
1 large onion chopped
¾ celery diced

For as long as I can remember, my mom would make cinnamon rolls for us EVERY Christmas! It started with my dad’s mom making them with the left over pie crust dough. She would roll out the leftover dough, add butter, cinnamon and sugar, roll and bake. Then my mom took over when her and dad were married.

This was the one time of year my mom

This is Jake's favorite cookie and I have made it for him every Christmas since we first started dating. He grew up enjoying this German cookie and likes it best when it is cooked until it is super hard, and then he dunks it in coffee to soften it!

My new favorite apple sauce recipe is so very simple. I love it because it is SO easy to throw together and a relatively fast way to use up a ton of apples. My mom and neighbor were nice enough to give us a whole slew of delicious apples so I tweeted the recipe I found off of Pinterest and the results were divine!
