Expedition Foods’ delicious light-weight meals provide the perfect nutrition for a wide range of outdoor pursuits. Freeze-drying food is the most successful method of preservation, making it taste better, look better, weigh less and last longer.
Expedition Foods says:
This freeze-dried delight brings a fiesta of flavour, wherever you are. We've combined tender chicken with long grain rice, vibrant sweetcorn, colourful bell peppers, and hearty red kidney beans. The base of onions and tomatoes creates a rich and savoury foundation, all brought together with our zingy fajita paste – a carefully balanced blend of red chillies, garlic, paprika, cumin, and a touch of lemon. This wholesome and convenient meal ensures a proper, satisfying feed whether you're conquering a mountain, or simply need a quick and tasty bite. No fuss, no mess, just pure, delicious flavour.
PREPARATION: REMOVE THE OXYGEN ABSORBER (Sachet) from inside the pouch. Slowly add hot water, stirring as you pour and then close the bag. Wait 5 minutes for the food to rehydrate. Note: Cold water will suffice, however the re-hydration time is longer.
The oxygen absorber helps maintain product freshness and is non toxic. DO NOT EAT.
