Serves two
10 minutes

Ingredients
½ cup instant potatoes
1 tablespoon powdered milk

1 cup dried stuffing
2 tablespoons dried cranberries

1 oz packet turkey gravy mix
7 oz pouch pre-cooked chicken

At Home
In a sealable bag or container, measure out the instant potatoes and powdered milk. In a second sealable bag or container, measure out the dried stuffing and cranberries. Pack in your bear canister along with the gravy packet and chicken.

In Camp
Bring 2 cups water to a boil. In one bowl, mix the potatoes and 1 cup boiling water. In a second bowl, mix the stuffing and ½ cup boiling water. Stir and let rehydrate for a few minutes.

In the meantime, add the gravy packet to remaining ½ cup water and stir until thoroughly mixed. Add the chicken and cook over low heat until the chicken has warmed through.

Split the dishes between the two bowls, spooning the chicken and gravy over the top. Dig in and enjoy!
