ok i can't stand it anymore - you may torture me with your beach food recipes
with the price of gas we are parking the boat more and walking the beach and hiking like we used to a years ago when we had legs of steel (and abs!), and we need some cool food to make it superb
must be small, light, backpackable and super easy - no fixing, just open and eat
we will bring the trash back with us to dispose of properly
i'll start with the old stand bys of things that thaw:
you tie these meals up in a bag with no ice (will condense a little bit of water as they thaw, hence the bag, and you can use it for the trash), and once thawed its lunchtime! (perfect for shell island or hiking)!
will also keep a few drinks cold as it thaws, especially if they were pre-chilled
if there's any water in the container when you are ready to eat, just pour it off (condensation)
1) a frozen shrimp ring (prepackaged, like from publix or winn dixie) yummy in the middle of a hard day shelling!
2) a hard-frozen container of pasta with dill, fennel and garlic oil
and two of those tiny bottles of merlot!
you could couple them with some things that don't get frozen, like
3) french onion or jalapeno dip in the pop top (non-refrig) can and a bag of potato chips - grrrrrrr! just the right snack in the late afternoon!
4) donut holes! - the 10'oclock wake you upper (or if you've drank too much!)
your turn!
