Notes: As a giant fan of the Luxefly Basecamp Chille Relleno, I was very excited to get this Huevos Rancheros breakfast out on trail. Seeing ingredients you can recognize when you open a backpacking meal is always a good sign. The meal rehydrated nicely and had a good texture although the 2 “whole fried eggs” were a little on the though side. All that being said, Huevos Rancheros has never been a top tier breakfast in my day to day life and this meal was the same. Although delicious and filling it is not as good as some of their other meal offerings in my opinion. Add the high price tag and you have a meal that may or may not be worth packing on trail. Cheers!
