To be honest, this isn’t a classic carbonara – it contains a lot of chives and other vegetables, so the dish is more like pasta with cheese and vegetables. The sauce is watery, even though I used less water than recommended. I wouldn’t buy it again, although the price is attractive.
A complete and easy-to-prepare freeze-dried meal. With the right balance of protein and carbohydrates, the meal helps you to fully recover from even the most demanding expedition.

An easy-to-prepare and tasty meal that even the children enjoyed during a mountain trip. Simple recipe, lightweight and compact size make it worth keeping in reserve for various trips.
-
For me, there's a little too much leek, its taste is quite noticeable. However, overall it’s fine. The portion is very nutritious. As for the downsides, the packaging tears so high up that it's hard to reach the bottom with a small spoon.
-
You need to add more water than they suggest for it to dissolve well. The taste is rather artificial, I can't taste any sauce, and the beef is just dry pieces. In general, I like this brand of freeze-dried meals, but so far I consider this dish the weakest.
-
Very tasty, nutritious, gives a feeling of fullness and you can clearly taste the cashews. It dissolves easily, leaving no residue at the bottom. In my opinion, it's one of the top dishes, and definitely the best among the meatless options.
-
This is already another pack I have bought – perfect as a snack or a sweet breakfast, for example with fruit rusks from militaria.pl. Very nourishing and delicious. An extra plus – you don't need to wash up dishes after eating!
-
Quite a tasty meal, and when combined with crackers, it provides a lot of energy to start the day. For me, the biggest advantage of such meals is the speed of preparation and no need to wash up dishes. Although the meal is light, remember that you need water to prepare it.
-
If freeze-dried meals were cheaper, I would probably buy them by the box! For now, I only use them during short trips. Great for a child's breakfast, afternoon snack, or a light, sweet supper. A very good and tasty product.
-
Tasty and nutritious muesli, although the price is as high as 25 PLN. Of course, it's convenient because you don't have to mix the ingredients, clean up, or worry about spilling it, etc., but still, it's an expensive product :) For short trips, it's a good solution.
-
After mixing thoroughly, it tastes good during trips; the product description is accurate. For freeze-dried food and its price, it's really worth trying.
-
I don't like that pasta is listed first in the ingredients, then oil, and the salmon itself is only 7%. However, the calorie count is correct, and besides, it's food for emergency situations. The product could be a bit lighter.
-
I don’t like that rice is the main ingredient and there’s only 6% chicken meat. However, the calorie amount is correct, and besides, this is emergency food. The product could be a bit lighter.
-
The chicken is unexpectedly tender, and the curry has a pleasant and appropriately balanced aroma. After preparation, the rice keeps the right consistency. The dish is nutritious and provides a feeling of fullness – great after a whole day of hiking.
-
After pouring over hot water, you get a delicious and filling breakfast – the porridge with fruit tastes natural, not overly sweet or artificial. An extra plus for the addition of nuts, which add variety to the texture. Preparation is quick and the whole thing is very nutritious – fibre and complex carbohydrates. Perfect for mornings in the mountains or during winter camping trips. The shelf life is long, as always with this brand – it delivers!
-
The freeze-dried version of the traditional dish has a surprisingly good taste, an intense aroma of the sauce and well-cooked pasta after adding water. It's quick to prepare, and the portion is definitely filling. An ideal choice for mountain trips or camping.
