	The biggest meal I struggle to plan for, is lunch. For us on the go it never seems that we want to take time to cook, but gorp, dried fruit jerky and cheese gets real old. Anybody want to help out?

	We usually bring Pita bread and make either Peanut butter and Jelly or Sausage and cheese sandwiches. Both Very good. It is amazing how good a peanut butter and jelly sandwich can taste out there.

	Those foil-packed tuna salad kits on a pita or tortilla are a good change of pace. Easy to whip up.

	Yep, nothing like a little "Vitamin G" to keep everything moving!

	Lunch is easy to plan. Everyone plans their own! A few days worth stays handy with each canoe and the rest goes in the group food pack or cooler for resupply as needed. It all gets hung together at night. Lunch is the great equalizer. It's hard enough pleasing everyone with breakfast and dinner! Packing their own lunch food and snacks helps keep everyone happy and allows maximum flexibility. When everyone heads out on a different day-trip they should have enough food to keep them happy if the wind or whatever delays them. Lunch possibilities I've taken or seen include: Cheese, sausage, PB, jelly, honey, bread, crackers, licorice, hard candy, candy bars, power bars, Beth Buckly bars, packaged meats, tuna and packaged mayo, bread sticks, ginger snaps, fruit (both fresh and dried), pitas, jerky, beef sticks, all sorts of GORP, breakfast bars, pop tarts, dried yogurt... You name it, if it doesn't need to be cooked, it's part of lunch for someone. I've seen powdered milk and protein drink stuff to twinkies to chicken "cooked" in lemon juice I think. (damn) Lunchtime varies. Sometimes you take time and have a formal group lunch. Sometimes it includes fish or soup or something hot. Cornbread is awful nice on a rainy day as well. Have a late breakfast and/or early dinner and lunch becomes part of an evening snack for whoever wants. I can't even imagine having to pack a lunch for someone else up there.

	If its a cold day, slice your hard salami and cheese. Fry salami in skillet, set aside. Squirt a little marjorine in skillet, when it's hot, add a tortilla, add salami, or hard sausage, add cheese, let melt, roll up, voilla, a hot rollup. Add picante or tobasco if you have come prepared. Spicy mustard can offer a change of pace. This will certainly pick up your pace.

	Smoked salmon is great for lunch if you've been lucky enough to fish in Alaska. Can you tell I'm jealous. flp
