Forgot to mention... no artificial food dyes, and no annatto.

Thanks!

No one has good things to eat on a road trip?

Make some damn trail mix: peanuts, M&Ms, raisins and other dried fruit.

Hey dude. You are one of my favorite people on /ck/. Bring some roasted chick peas along for the ride.

My wife will love this - and we can eat this cold. Definitely a keeper. Thanks! You like dem catfishes?

>>3762949
yeah they look nice and fat. what did you make with them? I know you and your wife eat pretty healthy, so it was probably pretty good. All I ever do with catfish is fry it up. I don't like to bake with it because it has a funny aftertaste sometimes.

Jerky, nuts, bread, cheese, dried fruit etc. If you're bringing a cooler you can pack more perishable items

If you wash them several times before freezing them, they don't get that aftertaste. If you buy them at the store, it's probably just that they're old or weren't treated properly before being frozen.

I haven't made anything with them yet, actually. We stayed on Lake Cherokee in Tennessee Monday night and froze them Tuesday... going to put them in ice and take them to New Jersey for my mom-in-law. They don't smell at all, so this will be my first time trying healthy things with them. I was thinking a soup could be fun if I could get the texture to imitate a more expensive fish. I've got some bones and bad pieces for stock.

I'll try that with a couple pieces first as a single serving, and fry it if I can't get it to work.

Gonna make some whole wheat rolls and try to make egg salad without too much mayo. Probably mix mayo, greek yogurt, some garlic pickles, hardboiled duck eggs, salt and paprika on top. Sound good?

A lot of jerky has caramel coloring added, and I can only tolerate certain caramel colorings... and we don't know which they are, or which ones are in what jerkies. It kind of sucks. There's a ton of local companies, but they cost like $7 for a little bit and I'm broke.

>>3762965
sounds good. Please, if you get a chance, report back with what y'all do with the fish if it is any good. I am always looking for stuff to do with fish for us.

Oh yeah, only I eat healthy. I try to inject some healthy into her diet, but she eats pretty much leftovers of what I eat and then a ton of dessert stuff that I make her/her family sends to her/she buys. She weighs 110lbs and it's disgusting how awfully she eats on a regular basis. I mad.

Will do. Her sister went to culinary school, but she's a big ol' cunt. I'm hoping to run some ideas by someone who actually has an idea of what she's doing that's based on something other than her own experiences, but I doubt that'll fly. She won't even let me use her "real" knives. Oh well.

>>3762977
she sounds like a dick

>>3762979

I had to have part of my lower colon removed and I took my wife up there when I was still recovering from the surgery... she was still a dick to me then. I think she just hates dudes. Her girlfriend looks like a dude though.

Whole wheat rolls, egg salad, cheese circles, salsa, tortilla chips, maybe some local jerky, spicy roasted chickpeas...

Anyone have any other ideas?

Welp, thanks for the ideas!

OP, make jerkey. takes around 4 hours. If you are balsey, you can leave it cooking overnight.
Set your oven to 140 (or as low as it can go)
Put marinaded steak on it, in small strips.
Use any marnade you want, man but cut the steak into strips first.
Let it bake in the oven, on a cookie rack.
shit's delishous

I can try that. I'll see what kind of meat we've got left in the freezer (had a freezer malfunction and had to throw away most of our deep frozen meat). It doesn't have to be steak, right? I might have some venison tenderloin left which would be awesome.

that filename.

Oh dude, game meats make the best jerky, go for it

>>3763272

Do you use any specific marinade for venison?
