anybody got any good ideas for "add water" or "open a can" foods to throw in

Ditto the recommendation for Mountain House dehyd food. The last
backpacking trip I took, all of us brought Mountain House(not pre
planned that way). Don't buy the eggs! Note, get the 2 serving size
bags. The one serving size is about enough to fill up a 5 year old.
There are packages of real oriental noodles, not Ramen or Cup O Noodles,
but the stuff with asian writing on them, that are very tasty. Just add
boiling water. There's canned chicken salad for making samiches. Tuna in
a foil package. Pre-cooked rice packages(some taste terrible so you'll
need to experiment). Many quick & easy noodle a soap dishes. A stroll
through the grocery store will have you set.
