December Features

I love sweets during the holidays! In addition to all of the delicious savory holiday food, I look forward to all of the decadent desserts that make an appearance during this season. So, I was excited to add two sweets to the December features this month.


Our Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes are to die for! What’s better than warm, gooey chocolate on a cold winter evening? These little desserts steam-bake in under 10 minutes and make four small lava cakes or two large. Hummm… save one to go with my coffee in the morning or eat them all now? Plus, if you follow our suggestion and use silicone cups - they lick clean - making dish duty a snap!


Gooey Caramel Topping. A quick and super easy dessert is anything combined with caramel. I usually go for the traditional apple-caramel combo, either packed in fresh or the dehydrated 'wedge' version, but caramel goes really well with all kinds of fruit as well as other things too. Caramel & peanut butter, caramel & chocolate, caramel & nuts... I could go on and on. These pouches are safe to use with boiling water too, just drop one in for about a minute and voilà, you’ve got hot, gooey caramel!


Peppered Salami. An all-natural and tasty slice of meat, this pepper encrusted salami makes a delicious lunch or topping for a pizza, quesadilla or added to pasta for a dinner entrée. I usually go the easy route and pair this salami with a good, hearty cracker and enjoy as a simple lunch on the trail. And since there are no antibiotics or additives, I can feel good about eating every bite.


Dehydrated Bell Pepper Mix. I like to keep a large stash of dehydrated bell peppers around at all times for tossing into nearly every entrée. I even keep them in my home kitchen in case I’m running low on fresh vegetables and need a little something extra to add to the pot! Delicious and packed with nutrients, this combination of red and green bell peppers adds a splash of color to any dish. They rehydrate easily in cold or hot water and are guaranteed to add a burst of flavor to any trail meal.
