Dragoon Pie - Ziplock Trail Meals

DRAGOON PIE ZIPLOCK MEAL

How about a Cup of Dragoon Pie? It’s our “no refrigeration, no home prep” version of Shepard’s Pie and it always hits the spot, especially on a cool day or rainy evening! This is one of those that tastes better than it looks, but trust us when we say it is a stomach pleasing meal on a cold day (it’s pretty darn good on any day you need some comfort food!). Dragoon Pie

Prep Time: 5 minutes.
Cook Time: 10 minutes, but no need to rush.
Clean Up: 5 minutes.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 Cup of Instant Mash Potatoes (2 servings 220 calories total)
- 7.5 Ounce Can of Corn Beef Hash (1 serving 240 calories total)
- 1 or 2 packets of ketchup (about 13 calories each)

Total Cost: About $2.50.

Home Prep:
Pour 3/4 cup of potatoes flakes into a freezer/heavy duty ziplock bag, place your corn beef hash can and ketchup packets into the bag. We like to remove the label to cut down on waste, but that’s your call). Preparation:
- Bring one cup of water to a near boil. While waiting, remove you corn beef hash and ketchup from the bag. Open the corn beef hash and set aside.
- When the water is near boiling, remove from heat and pour your water into the potato flakes. The water will be hot so wear gloves and pour carefully. Stir and let sit while you cook up your hash. - Put your corn beef hash into your cooking cup and fry over high heat. Be careful not to burn them, so if you’re using a cup, you’ll need to stir occasionally. UsuAlly about 5-6 minutes.
- When your corn beef hash is to your liking, pull it to the side of your cup and scoop in your potatoes. Add one package of ketchup (you can add a second depending on your taste preference). Stir and reheat the combined ingredients until they are a nice heart warming hot!
- Enjoy straight from your cup or cook pot if desired for easy clean up.

Clean Up: Boil one cup of water in cup. While heating, place all remaining waste into the ziplock bag, seal and discard in a waste basket. After water boils, swirl water carefully, wipe dry, store and you’re done!

Bon Appetite!!!
