Oatmeal

This is the oatmeal packets that my brother used when we went hiking in Utah. He had them in ziploc baggies, then poured the ingredients into a styrofoam cup and added hot water. It would be perfect for a 72 hour kit. Here are the proportions:1 cup oats, 1 T powdered milk, 1/2 T sugar, 1/2 t. salt, and then add 2 and 1/2 cups of boiling water. The powdered milk should not be the instant kind, otherwise it doesn't mix well with the water. He also said that he sometimes he will add dried apples (also food storage item!)
