RIVERTON, Wyoming (January 14, 2011) — World renowned for its jerky cure and seasonings, Hi Mountain Seasonings is pleased to announce the launch of a new line of camping, backpacking or outdoor foods. Four freeze-dried meals—Cajun Beans & Rice, Green Chile Casserole, Campfire Chili Macaroni and Hot Caramel Apple Crunch—will be the first offerings in this line of great-tasting, convenient, easy-to-prepare meals that boast a very long shelf life.
Hi Mountain Seasonings’ new Camping Meals are perfectly preserved, and there is no change in the shape, flavor, nutrition or texture of the food once restored to its original form by adding hot water to the resealable foil packet. Each of these four new meals contains three servings per packet, but they weigh only eight or nine ounces apiece, making them about 90-percent lighter in their freeze-dried form. They are easy to transport in a backpack or travel bag, providing great tasting meals wherever your adventures take you.

The Green Chile Casserole ingredients include precooked long-grain rice, dehydrated black beans, onions, tomatoes, corn, green chili peppers and ground beef. Each of its three servings contains 230 calories, 8 grams of protein, 45 grams of carbohydrates, and only 4 grams of total fat.
