Dehydrated Milk, Whey Protein and Eggs

Believe it or not, there are plenty of dried dairy (and non-dairy substitutes) that taste great. Plus, most dehydrated options last a long while. Whole powdered milk, for instance, will last for 2 years and makes a great creamer for tea and coffee.

Dried cheese products and things like nutritional yeast can be sprinkled on foods without any additional prep and will taste great. You can also find dried sour cream, dried butter, and even dairy and vegan cheese powder to help tide you over. There are various sizes available, ranging from 10 pounds (or 80 servings).

Just a word of caution: Instant milk is not the same item as “whole powdered milk.” Instant milk is readily available, but it isn’t equal to whole powdered milk in terms of taste and nutritional value. If you need to, think about ordering better alternatives through the internet and have it delivered to your home.

Now, what about whey powder? It is not just a staple for bodybuilders and athletes. Anyone can benefit from whey powder (or even plant protein powder). Whey is incredibly nutritious and rich in protein. High quality blends contain a full spectrum of amino acids, which the body needs to assist with muscle recovery and growth. The best part is that whey protein can dissolve almost instantly into any liquid, adding flavor to milks and smoothies.

Eggs actually do not need to be refrigerated if placed in a cool spot. However, powdered eggs is a much safer choice. You can get egg mix products in the local supermarket or order powdered egg (or vegan substitutions) online and get it delivered to your door.
