Beef stroganoff my favorite thus far, hands down.....I actually haven't had a bad one yet. I think the better question asked is "What are your least favorite Mt House meals?"

The spicy egg and potatoes breakfast with peppers and other things. I was in 13 miles on my goat hunt last year and started feeling like I was going to lose my stomach. Felt like a flu bug. In the morning I still was not feeling well, but was really hungry. So........I fix this breakfast. Who thinks you can freeze dry eggs, because you can't!! It went down and 30 minutes later it came back up for a visit. It was like that the rest of the day until I got out that night at 9:30 PM carrying a 60 pound pack. I never at anything else the rest of the day and only drank water trying to stay hydrated. That was a trick because about 10 minutes after drinking water guess what. Yep it did that all day. Not sure I could look at one of those breakfasts again!

I don't like the bacon and eggs. Just doesn't taste right. For breakfast I will take the granola with milk and blueberries. It is a little sweet but better than the bacon/eggs.

One other thing about the granola with milk and blueberries. The package says to serve and eat cold. I just cant stand to eat something cold in the a.m. when I am cold. Anyway, I poored boiling water in and it worked just fine, good and hot!

i havent enjoyed any of the breakfast options. breakfast for me is instant flavored oatmeal and some cowboy coffee. fast and easy and hits the spot. those ice cream sandwiches are pretty darn good!
 
Rice and Chicken....LOL well at least they didn't fool me by advertising the "chicken" part first....cause it was DEFFINETLY lots more rice and little chicken....anyway was good and rate it a 7...but really did fill me up....
next I guess I'll try the Beef Stroganoff......
Chill MAC...IIRC...is still my fav...

This just reminded me - my dad brought home some LRPRs (called "lerps"), they're long-range patrol rations, freexe-dried military rations for the special ops guys. This was back in the '80s.

I had beef hash, that was actually awesome. It was just like corned beef hash, but made with regular beef instead. I haven't found anything like it, freeze-dried or otherwise, since then.

Mountain House- Lasagna, Mac n Cheese, Eggs n Bacon is pretty good for breakfast and a nice change from Granola or Oatmeal. Also try Backpackers Pantry-Shepards Pie, really good and is by far my favorite.
