Lightweight backpacking doesn't necessarily entail eating only soggy boil-in-a-bag macaroni and cups of weak tea. The results from the REI/Backpacker cook-off from last September are mouthwatering, and some of them -- like the winning entree, Angry Red Lentil tortilla soup -- are one-pan wonders, easily within the reach of the lightweight backpacker with a titanium frying pan and some serious culinary skills.
