What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "This is hands-down the most balanced backcountry meal I've had. The chicken is real, the pasta holds its texture, and the sauce is surprisingly gourmet. It's not too heavy, which makes it a great pick mid-hike or at camp after a long day out."After a long climb or a breezy trail day, we crave something comforting and flavorful, like FOUNDATION Outdoors' Chicken Pasta Primavera. It delivers the taste of spring in every bite with tender bowtie pasta, big chunks of white chicken, and colorful vegetables all brought together in a rich parmesan oregano sauce. It's a crowd-pleaser in our packs and one of the first things we grab for multi-day trips. What makes this meal really stand out is the hand-cooked, small-batch process. Every ingredient is simmered together before freeze-drying, creating deep flavor cohesion and a texture that rehydrates evenly and quickly. 40g of protein makes this a meal that satisfies on taste and nutrition, no matter where we pitch camp.
