Ranger Pudding
"All the calories and caffeine you'll ever need in a small volume, not so tasty package... This is a great recipe when you're on extended combat ops - but it also doubles as a great example of the opposite of a good recipe!"

If you top it up with boiling water, it makes a great drink! an exboyfriend of mine started me on this. They called it "Bush Juice" in the Militia. I LOVE it as a drink, have never tried it as a "pudding". :) I may just have to do that!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I was a medic in the Rangers - food was fuel, never something we consumed for pleasure.
I traveled all over the world, tried all sorts of cuisines and took notes or begged cooks for recipes whenever I could manage it.
Now that my time in the Army is over, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen making up for lost time. :)
My specialty dishes are grilled or smoked beef, pork, chicken, lamb, goat, etc, and generally recipes from the American Southern states - but I do love Mediterranean dishes, and living in Greece, I have great teachers.
I travel throughout Europe and Israel, and I still take notes or beg for recipes wherever I go...
Maybe, at some point, I'll post some of the "recipes" common to Ranger units in the field - just so you can see why great recipes are such a treasure. By the way, I really don't suggest wasting your time trying any of the recipes! You can google "Ranger pudding" for a sneak peek if you're curious. I suggest this link, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1412605/posts it illustrates the concept pretty well.
