Have you ever tried powdered milk with any of the ones that require milk?


The Knorr/Lipton packages work well on a stove provided that you have a pot big enough. I have the Primus Litech Kettle Pot which is 1L capacity and it is enough to cook one package plus there is still plenty of room to add whatever else you want essentially making it a one pot meal.



As for the powdered milk suggestion. Yes this does work and the taste is not much different then real milk. Then again, we only drink 1% at home anyway. In any case, for a one day or overnight trip, we don't bother with packing powdered milk and the meals are planned without it. When we do take powdered milk, it is stored in a small container then mixed right into the Litech when needed.
