Teriyaki Chicken with Rice is yum. Beef stew is not.
LAST EDITED ON Sep-19-14 AT 11:04AM (MST)[p]Lasagna has nuclear cheese that will permanently attach to your spoon. No amount of cleaning will remove it in the field.
We tried the chicken and potatoes last weekend and it was surprisingly good.
My all time favorite is Chilli Mac.

Chicken and mashed potatoes and teriyaki chicken I liked but I was not impressed with the breakfast skillet. I agree they need to work on breakfast meals.

Beef stroganoff
Chicken and rice I add some seasoning and crush red pepper.
Breakfast skillet is good but add salt and pepper! With tortillas its enough for 2 people or 1 hungry guy!

LAST EDITED ON Sep-19-14 AT 05:28PM (MST)[p]Best one: None of em!
Worst one: All of em!
A light, fast, something to choke down in the backcountry: Any of em!
Seriously, its all personal preference, as the responses here would indicate...try a few ahead of time and see what you find "tolerable"
**edit---I chuckled at the lasagna "nuclear cheese" comment, very true indeed...once it cools, that crap is bulletproof

My three favorites:
1) Sweet & Sour Pork w/ rice
2) Chili mac
3) Spaghetti w/ meat sauce
The scrambled eggs for breakfast aren't too bad, as long as you squeeze all the water out. But I've found that I don't like to eat them several days in a row. I just tried the new biscuits & gravy breakfast and really liked it. I'll definitely be buying more of those. Pre-cooked bacon (i.e. Oscar Meyer) also makes for a nice breakfast in the backcountry.

I'l warn you to avoid Chili Mac unless you have an especially tolerant GI tract!
I like:
Chicken ala King
Beef Stroganoff
Chicken Breasts with Mashed Potatoes
Lasagna is ok
Beef Stew is ok
Noodles with Chicken is ok
Turkey Tetrazini is ok
I normally can't eat an entire 2-person meal. I usually split the meal in half before adding water, and save the other half in a sandwich bag for the next day.

+1 on the breakfast skillet,tortillas & salsa packets. There are some others such as barbeque beef wraps that go with tortillas as well that are pretty good. The 2 person servings are way too much and I wish they all came in the smaller 1 person serving.
3 or 4 days in they all taste like shyt and you long for a pizza and cold beer anyway.

That blood you were tracking was probably my stomach bile and MH Chili Mac!!!!
Back before I got my acid reflux under control, I ate one of those meals on a hunting trip, the results were best described as "volcanic acid from Hell"....whew.
I could eat them now with medication prior, but still prefer the chicken with rice varieties or the sweet & sour pork.
Was never real high on the bacon & eggs either.

The only one I eat anymore is Chicken and Rice. Everything else will destroy my insides.
Tried the Bacon and Eggs on a trip to climb Timp, didn't make it to the top that day. Colon Blow was an understatement.
I haven't been able to be in the same room with the Bacon and Eggs since without getting stomach cramps.

Thanks for all the feedback, I now have an idea what to start with.
chili mac
turkey tetrazzini
beef stroganoff
chicken ala king
lasanga and spaghetti are good but leave your spoon all cheesed up in my experience. so i don't bother with those anymore. the less I have to clean the better.
also mac and cheese always seems like it would be tasty but the noodles are ALWAYS hard no matter how long you let it sit. So that one I'd stay away from.
