Deliciously Easy Clam Chowder for Camping

IMG_0913 copy.jpg

2 chopped onion
2 cloves garlic chopped
1/2 stick of butter
6 tbsp potato flakes
1/2 c powdered milk
1 tbsp chicken bouillon
Two slices of bacon cooked and diced
1 pop-top can of clams (unless you can harvest them fresh)
4 cup water
Tabasco (optional as a condiment)
Garlic cheese bread (optional)

Cover the butter with the raw onions and garlic so it won't stick to the sides of a Ziplock bag. In a second bag, combine the potato flakes, powdered milk and the chicken bouillon. At camp, sautee the contents of the first bag until the vegetables are soft, then add the water and the second bag. Whisk them together and boil them together for about 15 minutes. Add the can of clams with the bacon and boil for another five minutes.  

Serves 2-4
