Peak Refuel- Chicken Pesto Pasta

A quick dip into the grab-bag of supper options and I came up with Peak Refuel's Chicken Pesto Pasta. Sure, I was hungry and wanted a quick meal, but this isn't just sustenance; it's a taste of comfort after a long day of navigating the wilderness (that's what I call cleaning my living room).

Let's talk chicken – following the instructions resulted in a texture that leaned towards freeze-dried chewiness, but hold on, the flavor was a redemption story on its own. The initial portion might give you second thoughts, but slow eating and thorough chewing (thanks, mostly-rehydrated chicken) unveiled the surprise – I was pleasantly full once I had finished it!

And that creamy pesto sauce? Oh, it's a dream. The ziti noodles held a resilient firmness, contributing to the overall experience. The ingenious cook-in-bag packaging was my best supper buddy, allowing me to savor every last bite while maintaining that just-right warmth. I wielded a long fork for this feast, but cutting the bag mid-way to turn it into a makeshift bowl would be an option too.

Minor tweak alert: Could we have larger, more legible cooking directions, please? Gray on black in a minuscule font had me squinting more than a treasure hunter with a dying flashlight battery.

Drumroll, please! Four and three-quarters stars out of five for this splendid creation. Peak Refuel, you've left me seriously impressed. Let the culinary adventures continue! #PeakPleasure #GourmetWilderness

this one is my favorite. add a bit more water and let it sit a bit longer than the directions say.

This was delicious. I added 2 more tablespoons of water than what it called for and it turned out perfect. The texture of everything was great and was fully hydrated. It had a buttery flavour and the pesto was refreshing. I will be buying it again.
