True Grits | The NOLS Cooking Show

This recipe is to be prepared at home, as it makes a large batch. The dry mixture can then be divided into individual meals (typically about four ounces per person per meal) for consumption in the field. Depending on the system you're using, this will generate about four meals for your enjoyment after a long day of walking.
 
Ingredients
1 cup instant grits
½ cup nut mix
½ cup crushed Fritos
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup dried jalapeños
¼ cup bacon bits or imitation bacon bits
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of salt
 
At home:
1)   Prepare the nut mix by combining equal parts almonds, cashews, and sunflower seeds in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is granulated, but not powdered and set aside.
2)   Prepare the crushed Fritos in the same fashion and set aside. Both the nut mix and Fritos are a great way to add calories without adding much weight.
3)   Combine instant grits, nut mix, crushed Fritos, Parmesan cheese, dried jalapeños, bacon bits, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt in a large container.
4)   Using a scale, measure the desired amount of grits mixture to take into the backcountry and place in a bag.
