Lazy Boy's Breakfast

This cereal recipe is great for campers in a rush, and it's perfect for backpackers.

Before crawling into your sleeping bag, fill a wide vacuum bottle (commonly called a thermos) or wide-mouth Nalgene water bottle half full of any quick cooking cereal (like instant oatmeal), 1/2 tsp salt, and a handfull of raisins or dried fruit. Add boiling water to 1" from the top. Replace the stopper and cap or lid. Cooked cereal is waiting in the morning. Eat it cold or warm it quickly in a pot with a little water.
