[pct-l] alternative to bread?

[Yoshihiro Murakami]

Thanks giniajim

The recipe is here: http://bit.ly/bnVwpt

I am eating this bread every day, so I would like to eat this on the
trail. one loaf of bread weighs around 2 kg. It is enough for 1 week's
breakfast and lunch.

>> Hi to all

>> Can anyone please recommend an alternative starch that I can use for lunch
>> and snacks? I want it be less bulky than bread, provide the same
>> nutritional value and not require the use of a stove or preparation prior
>> to eating (no noodles, couscous etc) .

>> Many thanks,
