Alfredo Potatoes

Here's a quick and convenient recipe for the pack. Sarbar posted on Whiteblaze a recipe for instant mashed potatoes with an added Alfredo flavor mix. I tried it with my own camp mix for Alfredo sauce and it worked great. I carry the mix in a zip- bag and drop the bag into my 16- ounce soup cup to prepare. The cup supports the bag; just mix in the oil and water and eat from the bag. This portion size works for me in summer, but I have found that I need more mix or an additional side- dish for cold weather or high exertion. Here are the ingredients:
1Tbsp Parmesan
1Tbsp Milk powder
1 tsp Coffee creamer
1/8 tsp Tony’s seasoning (or salt, black pepper, red pepper to taste)
1/8 tsp Garlic powder
1/8 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Basil
2/3 C Potato flakes
1 Tbsp Olive oil
1 C boiling water
