Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
This is easily my favorite meal when hiking. When I get above 10,000 feet my appetite vanishes (seriously, I could barely eat half a Pop Tart during my Mt. Whitney climb) and it becomes difficult to find anything that doesn't gross me out. THIS meal is perfect. It's tasty and easy to prepare and doesn't upset my system when I'm in upper elevations. It's also almost always sold out at the Santa Monica REI so I'm just gonna stock up via online ordering.

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
Picked up several new entrees on sale at REI to try. This one sounded good, and Backpacker's Pantry Mashed Potatoes and Beef is one of my favoties. I found the cooking of the chicken "breasts" separate from the mashed potatoes a little annoying. The texture and taste of the chicken was good, but I was not a fan of the seasoning for the mashed potatoes. I should have added some Butter Buds...that would have helped. But this is really splitting hairs. Mountain House quality is always good, and I wouldn't think twice about including these on a trip (as long as I pack some Butter Buds).

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
Prepare this at home first to avoid surprizes.
Also have something rigid with which to stir and something to hold the chicken while you're recostituting the potatoes.
Personally, I didn't have a problem with the chicken reconstituting and returning to "normal" as one reviewer posted. Granted it's not like fresh, homemade, but the texture seemed ok to me.
The potatoes are potatoes. There's not a lot of seaoning/spices in this meal (a plus in my book) but it's real easy to add your own, making this a good offering for people (like me) that prefer to season to taste myself rather than rely on someone guessing correctly at the factory.
All in all, this was a good meal that required a minor amount of effort on my part to prepare.
And like always, "2 servings" means 2 children, not 2 adults!

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
It really is as good as the other reviews state. Very hearty and flavorful, surprised at how good the chicken actually was. I too recommend breaking the chicken up before adding water.

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
This meal is not a total write-off. The mash potatoes are editable. The freeze dried chicken breasts are something else. The first time I prepared this meal I followed the instructions to the letter. The texture of the breast meat was liken to the soles of my hiking boots. The second time around, I let the meat stew for an additional twenty minutes in hopes that the added time and heat would reconstitute thoroughly. No such luck. My advice, call out for Chick-fa-lay or Colonel Sanders if you're really craving chicken. Please pass the beef!

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
This meal was just like all the other Mountain House meals I've had in that a] it smells and tastes quite delicious and b] the "2-serving" portion is really not enough for two people who've been active all day but is perfect for one.
Unlike all the other MH meals I've had, this one has a two-step prep process where you rehydrate the two pieces of chicken first and then take them out to use the same water for the potatoes. For this extra step and the fact that you may want to use a plate for this one rather than eat right out of the pouch, I'd put this one down as more of a base camp dish than one I'd take out on the trail. (It's also a little bulkier in the package than their other meals, something else to consider.)

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
At [$], it is a little more expensive than many other freeze dried food, but it does have two good sized pieces of chicken! When I made it for my family, they loved it. Nobody believed it was freeze dried. I would make it again and plan to recommend it for our Boy Scout Troop / Venture Crew backpacking camp out.

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
This is the meal I use to introduce friends to freeze dried meals. Starts off like a dried out sponge. Reconstitutes to real chicken breasts. The flavor is good, chicken is normally bland unless you add spice, I like the fact I can spice it the way I want. Dried spices are light and easy to pack. you can take 6 of these and have a different style every night. A little Jamaican Jerk seasoning, some Lowery's, some Cajun Seasoning all go well with this. Definitely my favorite dried food, and I have had quite a few. One hint, use the recommended amount of water, then squeeze the bag until the chicken is covered then seal, this is the best way to make sure all the chicken cooks without making the potatoes too mushy.

Comments about Mountain House Grilled Chicken Breasts and Mashed Potatoes - 2 Servings:
It was surprising to see 2 whole chicken breasts in the package and they taste real and have a good mouthfeel , not being rubbery unlike other products. The only drawback is that cooking requires taking out the chicken breasts after they are hydrated. this means that you will require a separate container/plate to hold your chicken breasts while the mashed potatoes cook. The mashed potatoes were flavorful and not exceedingly salty. Overall a nice product that tastes like real food and is well suited for backpacking
