If you made a dehydrated meal cookbook I would 100% buy it. I'm vegetarian so I appreciate your creative vegan meals. In said theoretical book it would be great to see a mix of home made meals in a dehydrator as well as meals that are made by combining some prepackaged ingredients such as dried beans, pasta, ramen, etc.
Not sure if they're translated, but Eric Tornblad have several books in Swedish. But I'm sure someone must have made a book or two in english as well......
I love that Miranda in the Wild feels like a blog, and not a company's show with product placements. I didn't even know this was REI's channel until I scrolled down here!
So glad you liked and profiled my date sugar suggestion! I just made dehydrated oatmeal with cinnamon-date puree. Here's the recipe: in a small crockpot: lightly oil the crockpot; mix 4 cups water with 1 cup steel cut oats, 1/4 tsp salt. Cook in crockpot 3-4 hours. Soak 16-20 pitted dates in hot water, just covered. After the dates soften and cool, puree dates and soaking water with 1 tsp+ cinnamon. Mix the puree into the cooked oatmeal. Divide into 4 servings on lined dehydrator trays. Enjoy!
Neat tips, I WILL try the soup. One of my favorite things to dehydrate is corn. Take a one pound bag of cheap frozen sweet corn and dehydrate it until it releases from the screen or parchment. It will be all shriveled up for sure. Then using a dry pan like a wok you roast it it until it swells back up and you smell roasted corn. That will pull out the natural sugars from the corn. Lay it out on a backing sheet to cool and keep it in a air tight bag. Instant energy for a snack and you can add in a few green peas using the same process and if you like sprinkle in some curry powder or other spices to taste. This is Parched Corn that was used for centuries as trail food. You can even grind it up and mix it with instant milk and butter powder to make grits, I have mixed it with melted brown sugar to make a morning mush that is packed with energy to get you going. Try it.
Don't knock your cooking show skills. It's your cooking show, gosh darn, not Babish's. Besides he never added water to a pot with a Nalgene. That's next level there. :)
Yes! Thank you so much! This gives me so many ideas for how I can make some delish foods for myself. I have a very, very strict diet due to some crazy food intolerances and this gives me so much hope for being able to eat sustainably while backpacking. Thank you :)
Love this! I recently bought a dehydrator and I'm so excited to try these recipes next time I head out backpacking :) Could you do a spring/summer video too?
Please more meals, love the videos. Quick question...if I were to vacuum seal a meal with an oxygen absorber how long would they last? I would like to have meals prepared in my home for emergencies or when I am lazy...thanks.
I do want to see more dehydrating videos, but you wanted a joke.. What’s the best thing about Switzerland? Idk, but the flag is a big plus! I love your vids!
👏yes! *lovely* ! *amazing* ! but can you please *tell/show* me how the dehydrated foods/silicone bags fit into a *bear canister* ??! 😮in *fact* can you make a video packing *REI bear canisters* of different sizes with food for 3-6 days or something! *please* and *thx* ! - jamie.
Great stuff! Thank you! I've found maybe 3 vegan backpacking meals so being able to make my own would be awesome! More breakfast things please! Maybe a vegan biscuits and gravy? I make my own at home but don't know if they could be dehydrated for the trail. Thanks!
I just started dehydrating food for bike packing trips...made cream of broccoli soup with a creamy cashew base...blended till smooth then dehydrated it...super good and easy to rehydrate . Thanks Miranda...for the laughs and great ideas!
Yes, more dehydrating meal demos please. I've been dehydrating for about 30 years for camping, backpacking and canoe trips. Always looking for new ideas. One of my favorite dehydrated meals is Corned Beef and Cabbage. Dehydrated cake is wonderful. Joke: if you put instant coffee in a microwave oven, will you go back in time?
Yes, please! More dehydrated backpacking meals please. Would also like to chime in with others about longer term storage information vs preparing for just one trip, or just a shorter trip. Thank you!
Yes please! More videos. I just saw this and I’m actually prepping my garden and this would be lovely to have some ideas of what and how to dehydrate the leftovers. Thanks so much! A huge fan and very new to all of this.
.. Great thing about a dehydrator ,, when planning an outing , about 2 weeks before just dehydrate any meal leftovers from daily meals ,, especially if your single ,, don't have to make special batches ... Dehydrate then vacuum seal ,, put in fridge until needed .. .. using a dehydrator is kinda fun ,, jerky ,, fruit roll ups for the kids ,, dried fruit slices .. just about anything edible .. ..And agree ☆☆ ..add seasonings when re-hydrating ...
Leftovers? My kids never leave any. 😂 And when I dehydrate fruit to have as snack on the trail......they eat it as candy in the tv-couch! Can't really complain though, they prefer fruit before candy. 🤔😉
@@elinordahlstrand9342 ...lol...I guess on occasion you'll have to make a double helping of what you might like on trail or camp...maybe not have it in sight until they've gone to bed ... but it is good to know there are children out there not going to bed hungry ..👍🙃🙏
Lmao… I commented on another video about this exact concept.. I guess I need to do my homework before commenting next time! Thanks for posting this, I would love to see more as you progress through the years! 🙌🏻
im literally watching this video right now because i was just looking at anacondas camp meal range and its sooo expensive :( im not ready to pay that much for food that isnt even that good haha
Love all of these recipes! Thank you for the vegan meals! More please! And favorite kindergarten joke- What's brown and sticky?............. a stick!!!! :)
Thanks for this video!! Prepping our meal plan for our backing this summer and got a dehydrator. Also vegan so love these recipe ideas! Thank you!! QUESTION: How long will these keep in your reusable baggies? Just wondering how early I can start prepping food for a trip.
Just moved to southwest and I found your vids... perfect tone and pace for my style of adventure... I took your advice from previous vids and really look forward to making meals with this little diddy right here. Thanks!
Whoever edits these videos deserves a raise, cause when you said "we're running out of space" and the little astronaut came up I lost it LMAO! legit laughter for 2 minutes straight.
More dehydrated meals please!! And can you include portion size suggestions for a family of four? We’d like to take our young children camping and having an idea about how much dehydrated food to make would be helpful. Thank you!
This was great! Especially the tip about not precooking dehydrated foods with fat. Yes more of these dehydration recipes please! You ever mix it up with freeze dried foods?
Great video! Regardless of whether you are vegetarian, vegan, or eat meat, vegetable based diy dehydrated meals do tend to yield the best results from what I have found. Meat can be very difficult to dry because of the fat and can take a very long time to rehydrate. However, what I have done in the past for adding meat to home dehydrated meals is to just buy a can of freeze dried chicken, such as from Mountain House, which was pretty cost-effective.
There are 2 basic ways to make dehydrated meals. Cook the meal first, spread it out and dehydrate. I'm not to crazy about this cause you usually need some oil/fat to cook the meal. Alternative is to dehydrated all the ingredients separately, assemble in the bag with spices. When rehydrating, just cook in a camp pot for 5 to 10 min to bring everything together. I have a dozen small mason jars full of dehydrated veggies, etc. just waiting to be assembled into meals.
Oooo the soup blows my mind! Can't wait to try that! I just got a dehydrator off a buy sell site and have some blue berries I can't wait to try to dry.
I just love your humour but I was a little taken aback by that shirt as camouflage. lol You are so down to earth and relatable that I am almost brave enough to attempt your lunch and dinner recipes in my new dehydrator-raptor-thingy-me-bob!
Hi, thanks for the recipes and for sharing the ingredient list in the description! I notice you didnt use your lime zest. When should we be adding it to the recipe?
I never realized how immensely practical a dehydrator really is. Like allowing me to have pre cut vegetables ready when i want to make a meal, and being able to use just as much as i need, instead of being stuck with half an onion or broccoli or whatever, that i need to use quickly before it expires. Now i can boil a whole bag of potatoes in one go, as well as slicing them up in one go, so i dont have to do that work every time i want to make a meal. And when i want to prepare the meal, i just add all the dehydrated ingredients to my food thermos, make a quick gravy, add extra water for the rehydration, bring it to a boil, pour the gravy into my food thermos, shake it all up, and wait for it to rehydrate. BTW... For the gravy, i usually just melt some butter in a pot, stir in some flour, let it roast for half a minute (or a little longer if i want a darker color gravy), and then gradually add some water while stirring, until i get a good consistency. I then add a little salt and pepper and maybe some paprika powder - and/or whatever spices i want.

SAME!
Usually you can add those ingredients into recipes as long as they are in the correct portions
Vegetarian here too! I would definitely buy a book! 😍
Vegan lacks essential animal nutrients. A dangerous diet.
Yes yes YES!!!!! More dehydrated meals! Yes yes yes! I’m staying tuned.... yes more dehydrated meal recipients! Yes yes YES!
Ditto!
Echoing this sentiment. Love recipe ideas for dehydrating!
I love that Miranda in the Wild feels like a blog, and not a company's show with product placements. I didn't even know this was REI's channel until I scrolled down here!
The fans have requested she get her own channel for years now!

sounds like you could make a dehydrated cookbook too!
Love this! What a great way to substitute processed sugar. Thanks for sharing!

Miranda says “Don’t dehydrate strong smells with other foods” also says.... “curry next to pears” 😂
Also raw onions.
More dehydrated foods, please! Yum. Also, preparing your own meals, instead of buying prepackaged, is very environmentally friendly.
I’ve been waiting so long for this episode. I’ve got my coffee and I’m ready to watch! Miranda and team deserve raises, just throwing that out there.
Don't knock your cooking show skills. It's your cooking show, gosh darn, not Babish's. Besides he never added water to a pot with a Nalgene. That's next level there. :)
My grandma who is Native taught me to make “warrior bars”. Which are bison, huckleberries, granola
Sounds delicious
sounds like pemmican
@@roddyeskew3909 essentially the same thing just a different name
@@gilh.2021 it is. But anything with huckleberry is delicious, to be fair lol
More of this please! Would love to see what they look like rehydrated, too.
Yes, please, create more such videos. Educational as well entertaining!
All 3 dishes look delicious! Thanks for making them vegan! Future cooking video suggestion - cold soaking recipes? :) Cheers!
Thanks for the idea! - Miranda
I found a cabelas 12 tray dehydrator in the trash the other day and it works!!! I am so excited!
Love the tip about the fat/oil! How do you keep your dehydrated meals stored and for how long?
I am curious of the shelf life too
Yes! Thank you so much! This gives me so many ideas for how I can make some delish foods for myself. I have a very, very strict diet due to some crazy food intolerances and this gives me so much hope for being able to eat sustainably while backpacking. Thank you :)
I bought a dehydrator just for backpacking! More recipes, please!
Love this! I recently bought a dehydrator and I'm so excited to try these recipes next time I head out backpacking :) Could you do a spring/summer video too?
May I ask what brand of dehydrated did you buy? There are so many to choose from. ☺️. Thanks!
@@Mtnsunshine Nesco brand is the best value imo
Please more meals, love the videos. Quick question...if I were to vacuum seal a meal with an oxygen absorber how long would they last? I would like to have meals prepared in my home for emergencies or when I am lazy...thanks.
I do want to see more dehydrating videos, but you wanted a joke..
What’s the best thing about Switzerland?
Idk, but the flag is a big plus!
I love your vids!
EXCELLENT! Yes more please. We basically just cook whatever we normally eat (WFPB) then dehydrate it. We like the extra technique tips from you. !
👏yes! *lovely* ! *amazing* ! but can you please *tell/show* me how the dehydrated foods/silicone bags fit into a *bear canister* ??!
😮in *fact* can you make a video packing *REI bear canisters* of different sizes with food for 3-6 days or something! *please* and *thx* !

She does have a bike packing video. Which I loved!
I would love more dehydrated meal ideas! I love all these recipes and I can't wait to try them!
Wow! That was really cool. I didn’t think about dehydrating my food. More videos would be great 🤩

Thanks for the feedback, Anna! We're glad you enjoyed the video. 🥰

Love seeing dehydrated meals!
Really enjoyed this video. Some awesome ideas and saves $$$. Dehydrated meals cost $14.95 to $19.95 here in Australia
im literally watching this video right now because i was just looking at anacondas camp meal range and its sooo expensive :( im not ready to pay that much for food that isnt even that good haha
More please... like a ton, more!
Yes, more! Love that you showed vegan meals!
Oh my....Miranda is wild and is entertaining to watch! (buuuurp)
Thanks for watching Russell!
So excited to put my dehydrator to use this summer!!! Thanks Miranda + Team
Love all of these recipes! Thank you for the vegan meals! More please! And favorite kindergarten joke- What's brown and sticky?............. a stick!!!! :)
Both the information, and the entertainment were appreciated. Stay well & Safe .. Cheers.
Thanks for talking about oil in a dehydrator. That was a key point
Glad it worked for you!
Thanks for this video!! Prepping our meal plan for our backing this summer and got a dehydrator. Also vegan so love these recipe ideas! Thank you!! QUESTION: How long will these keep in your reusable baggies? Just wondering how early I can start prepping food for a trip.
I LOVE these videos. 👍👍Miranda is the best. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great video! We are just starting to get into thru paddling! I am excited to try your lentil soup and curry! It looks delicious!!
We hope that you enjoy it on a future paddle!

YUMMY!!! It all looks deeeeelicious! More, please! :) (Thank you!)
That's a great idea. Then you can have it your own way, just need to be willing to spend some prep time. Thank you Miranda!!
I have the same paring knife as you! :D I've had it for like 5-6 years haha
Yay! For another great episode! Woooh!
YES PLEASE! And I am loving the vegan options!!
Hell's yes. 14-20$ per meal is a rip off and it's usually sooo salty. More recipes!!!!
This was great, thanks!
Great video, definitely want to see more dehydrated meals
I will probably not be dehydrating anything anytime soon but I would 100% watch a Miranda cooking show!
That was an amazing video. Never thought of being able to dehydrate all these meals! Can wait to try!
Miranda cooking...Am I the only one with a big smile right now ?
More please.
I’d love to see more meals!! With backpacking season right around the corner, I’ll take all I can get
Please do more of these . This made for good backpacking meals . Thank you
I loved this! Please do more dehydrated meals.
This was a great video!
love your personality would live to see mu dehydrated meals
More dehydrated food please. This was awesome
Everything Miranda does is adorable
Love this video and would love to see more recipes
More dehydrated meals please!! And can you include portion size suggestions for a family of four? We’d like to take our young children camping and having an idea about how much dehydrated food to make would be helpful. Thank you!
Yes to more dehydrated foods please! Love it
Such great little nuggets of wisdom!
Lemon is the best season. Zesty is my favorite profile. And it make the meals refreshing
Awesome. Love the recipes as a fellow vegan. Can you rehydrate in the Stasher bags as well?
Yes, you can! You can pour boiling water into Stasher bags to rehydrate your meals. They're amazing!
This was great! Especially the tip about not precooking dehydrated foods with fat. Yes more of these dehydration recipes please! You ever mix it up with freeze dried foods?
Hey REI/Miranda -- This can be a whole other show! Great ideas, now I want a dehydrator!

Yay! Also. Dehydrated rice is a good fuel saver!
Yo, I love the lodge and stone fireplace! Oh yeah, I finally sold my dehydrator. Too lazy heh :)
Miranda rocks!🤘🏻
