    Same, don't try so hard. If it's good it's good. If not, a pile of spices will not fix it.

    Hi Robert, thanks for your honest feedback. We appreciate your input and will keep working to improve our products. If you have any specific suggestions, feel free to share!

    Hearty and filling. Gluten free. Lacks a little flavor.

    A taste of home! As a native New Orleanian, I found the taste to be authentic, good spices and not overly salty. I wish it was a double serving.

    Back in the day this was my PRIMO GOTO, comfort/life giving golden carrot dangling at the end of one more long, painful Pennsylvania switchback. While, along with a hunk of dark bread these are a filling meal, don't buy just one because they'll be a favorite.

    Great but needs more

    Excellent meal, loved the flavors. However, if they could just increase the contents by about 50%, it'd be a more filling vegan meal.

    Hey Ryan,

    Glad you enjoyed the meal! This meal is considered a single serve option...we would highly recommend consuming the two serve meals as they offer what you are looking for if you have a big appetite.

    LOUISIANA RED BEANS & RICE

    Single serve size was perfect. This is one of my all-time favorites for backpacking. I love the spicy flavor and have found that I can add a small foil pouch of white meat chicken along with the boiling water for extra protein... making a more complete dinner on the trail.

    Thank you for the great review, Loren! We are so glad you enjoyed our Louisiana Red Beans & Rice, and love the idea of adding chicken!

    Absolutely delicious. This one was my husbands favorite, even my dad who grew up in Louisiana said he thought it was incredibly good. Love all the vegetarian and vegan options for this brand. You won’t go wrong with this one!

    Spicy warmth

    Spicy flavors and a good meal to warm your insides on a cold winter day. This is one of my personal favorites. Plenty of protein to keep me going on a cold day’s hike.

    Spicy & On the lighter side

    I ate this as part of my dinner during a summer backpacking trip in Olympic National Park. Spicier than I expected but not very hot or anything (& I like the heat.) This is either best as a side dish or if this is your main entree you probably need to add a few other things - I accompanied this pouch with nuts, cheese, dessert, etc., in order to get enough to eat. I am pleased however that this is a vegetarian recipe and have ordered it again.

    Not only an excellent source of protein, but a great meal to warm your insides. Spicy and flavorful! This one is one of my favorites! I also like that it’s a single serving package.

    Shorted me the 10% discount

    Shorted me the 10% discount on my $100+ order and half a dozen emails to CS later not a single response.

    The stuff I ordered was OK, but the several 10% discount emails I got are a marketing fraud apparently.

    Go figure.

    Tasty Fuel for the Trail

    I utilized the Louisiana Red Beans & Rice as my main fuel source for two climbs of Mt. Rainier. It has a good amount of protein, stays warm once heated, and tastes great. It is also one of our favorite vegetarian staples for backpacking. It is nice that it has some flavor compared to some bean and rice combos.

    It is good but it is fairly spicy. You will have to be hungry to eat the whole thing.
