I do this when I'm lazy/tired/poor and realized this would be a good playa/camping option, what I call Poor Man's Manhattan Clam Chowder.
no refrigeration, no spoiling, no prep, 1 pot.
1 can condensed tomato soup
1 can tuna
some dry oregano
some black pepper
pour the soup in the pot. break up the tuna into smaller pieces (you can do this in the can). dump the tuna into the pot. add generous shaking of oregano. add some black pepper, to taste. stir well. heat. eat. :)
Quick and easy and it gives you some protein as well as something warm to eat.

Thanks, but I think I'll pass on that one. -

Re: Poor Man's Chowder
Wed, March 12, 2008 - 9:20 AMRight, i often wonder the same thing. Personally, even a smore's does not appeal to me, but you hand me sleeping bag, rub some dirt on me and force me to pee int he trees, and all of a sudden I have a fist full of smore's fixins. he chowder reads not so pretty, but I tried something similar the other day. I call it "in-between chowder'. As in in-between trips to the grocery store, ha ha. But I used cream of chicken, a small can of shrimp, and a bit of herb and garlic Mrs Dash. And toast, always good with toast. Or a bagel if you're camping. -

*L* yep, dirt, pee outside, sleeping bag... boom! you want bacon and marshmallows and bad cup noodle soup. ;)
and yes "in-between-chowder" sounds very similar: on paper totally unappetizing, but when you're looking at some cans and whatever is left in the fridge, well, not so bad. ;)
