Gado Gado

I've had a few requests for this so I thought I'd post it. One of the most popular meals on the trip is the spicy Thai peanut sauce called Gado Gado. Here's what you do:

Before you go camping make Gado Gado mix:
1.5 cups vinegar
1.5 cups oil
1.5 cups brown sugar
1.5 cups soy sauce
1.5 cups peanut butter
1 jar Mrs. Dash spice mix

Put it all in a couple of water bottles or solid screw top plastic bottles. Put it in a backpack and hike a few miles to mix thoroughly.

At supper time cook a quarter pound of pasta per person. Drain well. Mix the Gado Gado with the pasta. Serves 12.

Update 3:30pm: This meal is an adaptation of one that NOLS uses, if you'd like to see the meal in the original context (for 2-3 people) check out their 'cookery' Web site.
