This is a recipe that I learned from a fellow thru-hiker on the GR11 in Spain. For me, it ticks all the boxes on what I look for in a thru-hiking meal. Mainly that it's light and easy to make in one little pot! This lentil recipe is delicious, affordable, calorie-dense and most importantly, super delicious!

I really like the lack of dialogue. Just letting it be. and also that it's a vegan recipe. Much appreciated!
Thanks man! I was a bit of an experiment. Glad so many people are enjoying it!
@@ChaseMountains There is always something Zenlike about simplicity and silence, beautiful landscapes never hurt either....cheers m8!
@@ChaseMountains it was nice but personally I like it way better when you’re talking.
I’m just thinking about how you had to run far away and then go back to get your camera. The dedication is appreciated.
We want more vegan, silent recipes 🏔️
It seems you are not alone! It was a bit of an experiment but I think it worked! I think I'll do some more!!
Yesss!
@@leohaugenwyller4468 another silent recipe, just posted! ruclips.net/video/ygCxddOzbxQ/видео.html
yes pls
....shhhh.
But I wanted to also say this.
This wasn’t just a cooking video but a whole spiritual experience. What incredible scenery. I appreciate not talking just to fill the silence (which is beautiful)
This was so beautifully filmed. I was just transfixed, even something as simple as cooking lentils became so lovely.
Pro tip: smoked paprika is also great with lentils
Thanks for the recipe Chase!
that's something staple in every other household in India
yeah my Indian viewers are unlikely to be impressed hahha.
I love the fact that 4 steps of this are lighting your jet boil, real cooking guide LOL
Thanks for this video! I’ve made this meal a few times already. It’s delicious and filling. I added fried shallots and brought packets of hot sauce. You can also add msg to the garlic powder and that’ll boost the umami.
Haven't watched yet, but woohoo, finally a vegan recipe vid. Thanks. 😅
Edit: looks like my regular dinner, haha. Thanks for sharing. Also, really love the way you edited this with no voice overs or direct speaking.
Right? Love it too! 🥰
💚🌱
If it's good at home,it'll be great on the trail. 😋✌🏼
Lentils, couscous, buckwheat & oat flakes, soy chunks, and nutritional yeast - my staple foods when backpacking. Pro tip: nail down the proportions of spices at home and mix in the spices to the lentils/whatever else you're cooking.
Yay love it! As a hiker, mountain lover and someone who loves your channel - love and appreciate that you are doing healthy plant-based stuff.
Vegan outdoor camping with soft music and amazing views - more of this!!
Also try adding buckwheat. Lightweight, filling, same cook time as lentils and has an amazing amino acid profile for protein absorption.
What is an.amazimg amino acid profile for absorptuon mean? Does profile match usrda or egg distribution? How does buckwheat increase absorption?
www.researchgate.net/publication/323389455_Nutrient_capacity_of_amino_acids_from_buckwheat_seeds_and_sprouts
Well I'm no nutritionist but from what I understand you need amino acids transport nutrients and help to build muscle.
Buckwheat has a good amino acid profile meaning the protein is Good quality. Ideal for this type of lightweight recovery meal.
I don't know about eggs or other foods as I wasn't making a comparison.
To Doug Crabtree,
I read the buckwheat article link you included from Journal of Food and Nutrition (Researchgate.net). That group seems to do real science and thanks for the exposure.
I will buy buckwheat to soak 10 hr then damp 14 hours more in pot. Rinse every 10 hours or more often then twice before cooking gives more nutritious sprout. My test to determine if they increase my hormones is the symptom of a desire for stronger muscle contraction. Beans or barley sprouted and cooked this way increase my muscle contraction. Roman gladiators ate sprouted barley to increase their strength.
To Doug Crabtree, I bought buckwheat groat hulled. Bin label lists protein 5g for 45g serving gives 11.1% protein by weight. Meats, nuts, seeds, cheese contain 25% protein by weight.
Quality amino acid profile means how much does limiting amino acid reduce usage of all protein. Peanuts contain 47% quantity of ideal essential amino acid Lysine. This means 100g peanut butter has 25g protein but only 11.75g of all protein will be used by body. (25g x 47% = 11.75g). This 11.75g of 100g peanuts is 11.75% protein used and matches buckwheat if buckwheat has 100% limiting amino acid profile. The The weakest quantity amino acid is a bottleneck that limits use of all amino acids (protein).
I tried to sign up at researchgate.net but was not allowed due to a lack of institution email address. How were you able to sign up?
@@SlickMaximus I think he meant to have all essential amino acids in one meal. Usually you just need to pair a bean/legume and a cereal. And it's not even needed to be in the same meal, but within one day.
I made this tonight so I'd have practice for my backpacking trip! It was fast and delicious. The vegan backpacking community is the best
Masoor Dal is such a simple and healthy dish! And delicious. You can also cook it at home, puree with an immersion blender, and put it on the dehydrator for an instant version. Optional: add coconut milk powder in camp.
Thank you for posting. I've been looking for some inspiration for ultralight meals and this looks delicious!
Collecting recipes for my first big Hike next year, It’s on the list!
More videos like this please (only if you enjoy making them ♥️)
So relaxing to watch and very useful at the same time
another silent recipe, just posted! ruclips.net/video/ygCxddOzbxQ/видео.html
This was so delightful to watch! Such a chill vibe.
Great message at the end man!
This was so satisfying to watch
For macro breakdowns check out the recipe on my blog!! bit.ly/lentil-curry-recipe
Great movie! I am planning the food system for my 500km thru-hike in may 2021 and lentils are on my staples list.
I want to buy a fruit/veggie/mushroom dehydrator to experiment with dried produce.
I like the caption at the end 👍
I’ve been vegan/whole food plant based for 2,5 years and never felt better, fitter and more masculine 💪🥕🍊🍇🍎🍐🧅🧄🍒🍉🍌🥒🥑🌱
Great to hear! Yeah I'm sure that caption is going to get some nonsense remarks in the comments but the reality is you can be an absolute beast on a plant based diet and that's been proven time and time again. Go get it!
@@ChaseMountains hey there,ran all my life with nothing more than some soya polony,red bean salad and bread.ran long distances ,even multi days,no problem.for my next trip I will experiment with dry fish .
How is your diet tied to your masculinity? Like I'm genuinely asking not trying to be an ass. Is it more to counter the stereotypical "bacon makes me feel manly" thing (that interestingly started as an ad)?
@@zmuzzy101 Well, most or even all people that surround me live convinced that meat make you a real man and a strong person - physically and mentally. My response to that is that you can be a man, strong in any way while not eating animal products that are result of animal abuse and slaughter. Most of those "manly" men around me have big belly and can't run a mile, at the age of 35-45 have some health issues (high cholesterol, blood presure, high blood sugar, etc.), so in fact they are becoming dependant on drugs and doctors (is it so masculine to be a constant client in doctors office and pharmacy?). And the only thing they do is complain and justify their condition by lack of time, genes, etc. Usually they lack of empathy and compassion too, mentally staying "in the box" created by their parents and upholded by society.
So for me vagan diet (whole food, not oreo cookies, potato chips and coke), beside those people following it to be trendy, is a sign of bigger conciousness and respect for myself and others. For me that is a real sign of masculinity, when you realy take care of yourself (mental nad physical health) and others (limiting to any possible extent your impact on animals and on the planet and its resources). Of course I don't limit myslef to the way I eat, I try to make as much concious choices as possible, and no I'm not a monk 😁
I hope that I have explained my point of view ;😀
Love the message at the end.✌💚
This was really entertaining ..amazing how you fit so many spices into the cup
This has to be the best and most enjoyable video to watch, thank you!!!
This looks great! I will have to try it. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful video, loved the final message ;)
That was an awesome video with great illustrations ! Thank you and glad I searched for vegan hiking food and found this one 🙏
I’ll definitely subscribe for more
What a wonderous video. A recipe, a meal.. it's an entire experience. This feels kinda of like an advanced version of Rimworld, on solo - really really nice.
I often cook red (or yellow) lentils with the same amount of Yasmin or Basmati rice (broken rice is even cheaper). Just potion and cook the lentils as you would do with rice. IE: 1 Cup rice, 1 cup lentils, 4 cups water.
INSTANT sub. The heart of backpacking: getting out there and enjoying the peace.
Thank you so much for preparing a concientious vegan meal that raises awareness for others of the plight of animals on our planet. I purposefully searched for vegan backpacking food. Thank you.
lovely to have no talking. thank you.
Lovely. Thanks for the food for thought as I plan our PCT.
Beautiful and calming video. I've been vegan for nearly a decade and so glad to see more recipes out there. TVP has become a favorite for me on the trail. Never thought about red lentils but they'll be in my next meal for sure!
Man it's the best! So much life and energy in lentils.
When you pitched your tent, I immediately thought of my last miserable night’s sleep in the backcountry. I made the same mistake, hahaha. So step 18 made me chuckle a tad.
Love your work man-especially the mobility videos. I plan to use them over the course of the next year as I prepare for a thru hike of the wind river high route in the US.
Keep up the great work!
Definitely going try this!
Love the lighter situation. We forgot our lighter on our last trip and had some soaking wet matches, after 9 or 10 tries one went and we had a great lunch! That moment of despair once you realize something isn’t going to work like you anticipated really bring some spice into life!
Yes - olive oil is the lightest way to add the calories - and easily available on-trail. Just don't overdo it - anything more than around 65g/750 calories per meal can cause digestive issues and may not be absorbed well. Oh - and make VERY sure it doesn't leak on your gear. I decant it into a light plastic dispenser and carry it at the bottom of the front pocket of my pack just in case.
For extra taste maybe try dried fruit like raisins, dried onion, dried tamarind, desiccated coconut, dried ginger, spinach (a fresh veg that's light and compact to carry), cashew nuts... The main issue with a lot of this stuff is resupply on the trail - you ain't going to find it in small alpine villages. So you need to get very organised with resupply boxes, which is a major hassle.
Personally I prefer a larger pot - the Evernew 900ml is a popular option. You can make bigger portions and add some fresh veggies in the valley or after a resupply.
Thanks so much for this video! Planning my first overnight hike and looking for vegan meal ideas that are lightweight 😄🌱💪
Lentils and cous cous is where it’s at!!
Yes that view was beautiful!
Love it, looking at doing a video myself sowing what I (vegetarian) eat. I like the lentil and soy chunk addition. Nice one.
Lovely video. Was thinking it resembled the Pyrenees, and saw at the end it was indeed! Beautiful 👏🏼
Nice! Ill try it next time!
Billiant. Lovely short film that spreads a positive message.
I bet that tasted amazing!!! Looked so good!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing this
That was beautiful, thankyou for sharing.
Great share, thank you again. Magnificent scenery, love it! Btw, a more elaborate meal this style is Kitcheri or Kichadi, an Ayurvedic dish I think. Would like to see your trail breakfast if you can.
Hilarious video! What a great recipe too. Thanks for sharing!!
Brilliant!!! Thank you!!
Brilliant I’ll be doing this.
Really like the last graphic!! The human race generally love animals but forget or disregard this at the dinner table. Thanks for sharing.your vegan camping cooking recipe Chase 👍
I met another inspiring young Aussie on a trail a couple of months ago. He’s just completed the Te Araroa trail in NZ. 3,000 kms from bottom to top of NZ raising money after losing a mate to illness.
Keep up the great videos!!
I have never done this, but watching I felt I was there! The silent vegan in the wilderness eating lentils, what else could beat that? Thank you.
The knife's edge on this mountain is divine
Amazing video, delicious recipe, and beautiful editing, love your work!
Thanks for making a vegan menu, please make more of it, I really appreciate it.
Have a blessed year ahead, and keep on making your wonderful works 😁
Looks great. Love the "silence". Wow, a whole tablespoon of garlic powder. This must be for solo hikers only. I'm gonna try your recipe this weekend.
One of my most favorite videos on the internet. Like meditation to me. I make this at least once a week.
Wow! So grateful for this. Yummm.... 😋🙏
Step 18.... been in that position... best view but ended up being worst sleep due to high winds. Great vid. I'll be using your recipe on my next hike, thanks!
Wow, what a view! Love the video, so good!
A little tip for using an empty lighter like that, slowly roll the striker wheel thing 5 or so turns so it grinds some of the flint off, then try lighting it. It creates a lot more sparks
legend, thankyou! always have trouble with that
Your lighter doesn't require gas - just a flint. Cook with the lid on as much as possible to save fuel. Once it's simmering turn the gas to almost zero.
My staple is lentils and brown rice, and I cook enough for dinner, breakfast and lunch, supplemented with seasonings and snacks. Dull but satisfying.
Haha, step 18 is the best.
I've had lentils for about 1000k of the TA and it was great! ♥️
Thanks for this! If you want to pre-soak in your pot just cut a piece of silicone sheeting to fit between the pot and lid and hold the lid on with a couple of rubber bands or an x-band.
All the best, Scott
Excellent tip my man!!
@@ChaseMountains Thank you!
Try presoaking lentans in a zip lock bag for a few hours if not over night, they cook faster and more evenly.
i dig this recipe. beefed it up a bit by adding some pearl barley and bob's red mill nutritional yeast - adds a bit more carbs, fiber, protein and iron from the barley and vitamin B complexes from the nooch.
Top Tip:
Besides from making a light wind breaker for your gas stove with some card board and tin foil , soak those lentils in a bottle with some water during the day so you can eat sooner ,save gas and cook faster.😉
Really pleasant and enjoyable video! Congrats!
Great meal option, thanks for the video. I like the idea of even adding some brown/wild rice to the soaking lentils. Soy curls are another great option instead of TVP and are much less processed, only problems is you can’t buy them easily in Aus. Thanks again 👍😊
No talking no bs to the point . Thx
Simply beautiful. Thank you.
Thanks for the beautiful recipe video. Step 18 cracked me up :)
Looking for new vegan hiker recipes and found this channel, beautifully filmed!
just posted! ruclips.net/video/ygCxddOzbxQ/видео.html potentially could be vegan with vegan cheese!
Love lentils they’re packed with carbs protein fibre and nutrients. I do red lentils add kikkoman soy sauce and add spices - raja madras, coriander, turmeric, chili, and tiny bit of garlic and ginger. I find raja spices are the best.
Awesome ! I am impress that you brought all hike long the olive oil bottle made of glass ! I definitely need to follow the strength training first ! But this option is much better than dehydrated industrial food, thanks for sharing
Haha actually the olive oil bottle is plastic!
Love it brother 💪🏻💪🏻
Very nice video, thanks! We never cooked lentils from scratch on a hike, good inspiration mate! And didn't know you were vegan 👍
Isn't he amazing? 🌱💚
@@carmenrizzo9951 oh yeah! :) plant power!
Hey! Great video :) Thanks for sharing!
lol, have also regretted stupidly exposed and windy campsites in the past, great meal too, will try it for sure
looks delicious! I made it as well many times when walking a part of the GR11 last autumn. I added some couscous (you can add it after the lentils are almost done) and some dried apricots to spice it up :)
That's amazing, thanks for great video :)
YES! Lentils are an everyday staple here in Chile. Great recipe, and great MacGyvering!
Lol, I loved the MacGyver moment too!
DEFINITELY making this! Absolutely perfect for a nights wild camp after a long day hiking. Thanks so much... and you’ve made me remember to check my lighter too 🤣
Ahhah well if it doesn't have gas you know what to do!
@@ChaseMountains the flint is always good huh. 😁
Try the green moong or skinned yellow moong… they cook even faster. And if you can pre soak during the day so they cook up even faster at night
I tried rice and pasta but for some reason red lentils are the perfect trail food!
As a 'non vegan', (not saying 'm' word out of respect for the channel) I enjoy the variety of many vegan recipes. Thanks for sharing :)
I’m a Quid Pro Quo Bro,
This is not MY recipe - I’ve gleamed it on the net some time ago, but it is my “Go To” dehydrated hiking dinner:-
1/4 cup dehydrated cooked basmati rice
1/4 cup dehydrated canned chickpeas
2 handfuls dehydrated spinach
2 tablespoons curried pumpkin powder
2 tablespoons coconut milk powder
Salt
On trail add ½ to ¾ cup of water and simmer 10 mins.
It’s vegan friendly as well.
Oh! And before you ask:-
Curried Pumpkin Powder
You’ll need:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp ginger, grated
2 tsp mild or HOT curry powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 kg peeled, deseeded and cubed pumpkin
1 cup vegetable stock
Salt to taste
Method:
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan.
Add onions, cook until golden-brown.
Stir in garlic and ginger. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Toss in curry powder and cumin, heat together for another minute to release the aroma.
Pour in 1 cup of vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
Add pumpkins and stir well.
Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes.
Purée pumpkins using hand blender or food processor.
Spread the puree on dehydrator trays covered with non-stick sheets or parchment paper.
Dehydrate at 52C/125F for 8-10 hours until brittle.
Grind the pumpkin bark into a powder.
Store in airtight container in a dark, dry place.
That sounds absolutely delicious! I'll have to make some for dinner even if i don't dehydrate it
One really feels the sacredness of the meal enjoyed in solitude.
awesome!
Could you make some recipes for stoveless backpacking? As you said you were also going to eat like that?
My kinda meal! Happy travels....
My food for 6 days is a lot of weight..about 2 kilos. I love your recipe and I'm inspired to try out carrying lentils and soya chunks rather than expedition foods..well I may keep 2 or 3 as they are delicious.
Thanks for a great vid. Peace.🙏
I want more of these videos!!
another silent recipe, just posted! ruclips.net/video/ygCxddOzbxQ/видео.html
I add small pasta like maccaroni, i prepare each meal in a ziplog bag, then just need to empty into pot and cook up. I turn gas off once boiling and cover with my jacket, beanie or sleeping bag and let soak for 20minutes. Yum! I use nutritional yeast and paprika, garlic, onion, chilli, mixed herbs and sometimes stir in vegan pesto i like to take 🤤 i think I got the idea from a similar video you made? Or even this one 😅 ages ago
Nice!
Just found your channel great videos mate
Maybe stock or salt unless you are sweating a lot.A great tasty easy meal.
