Product Details

Pesto Pasta with Chicken brings a familiar dinner into a compact pouch, combining instant pasta, tender white meat chicken, parmesan, basil, roasted garlic, and black pepper. The pesto is nut-free, while the cheese adds the rounded, savoury character you expect from the dish. With 580 calories and 38 grams of protein, it is substantial enough for a hungry stop without asking you to carry a full kitchen.

Preparation is straightforward at camp: add 1 1/2 cups of boiling water, stir, seal the pouch, and wait eight minutes. Stir again, then give it seven more minutes before eating. At higher elevations, rehydration takes longer—the time doubles for every 5,000 feet gained. The 4.7 oz pouch has a 10-year Best By date from manufacture, making it practical to keep in a food kit.
