Hello, every birdy. Today, we are going to make one of the most comforting recipes out there. Add a soup of your choice, and it is a perfect meal for a sick day.
Kinich is the likable character in the Natlan duo. What I mean by this is Kinich (Ka-nee-ch) has a “companion” named Ajaw (Aa-how). And anyone who knows this game understands how annoying Ajaw is. Everyone says how much they like Kinich, but they wouldn’t get him because of Ajaw.
Now Kinich says that his favorite food would be something fast and easy when he is out in the wild. He was one of the harder characters to figure out. Because at first I was like I am going to share a grilled cheese recipe. So I think the fastest and easiest “recipe” that I could give him would be a trail mix or GORP (Good Ol’ Raisins and Peanuts.)
I grew up on GORP. It was a simple snack that would fill me up for hours when I was younger. For the most part in my upbringing, my family didn’t have a car. Meaning if we wanted to walk somewhere it was going to be on foot. And before you ask the one question everyone always asked “How do you get groceries?” We lived about 20-25 minutes away from a grocery store and we were lucky enough to have reliable public transportation. So we got our groceries and walked home after paying for them. And GORP was a treat.
It is basically a trail mix. Meaning you can buy some trial mix from the store and add Cheerios. And you could call that GORP.
You could make it savory or sweet.
Thankfully my parents always went the sweet route.
Some common add-ins that we have done:
Cherrios
Raisins or yogurt-covered raisins
Dried fruit
Chocolate chips
Peanuts
Almonds
Gronola
M&Ms
Pretzels
Honestly, the add-ins can literally be endless.
Place all of your ingredients in a large bowl.
Stir to combine.
Add them into small sandwich baggies and enjoy.
I love these. Even to this day, trial mixes and GORP are just a comfort snack for me.
But I am the type of person who can get a 8 oz drinking cup of trial Mix for breakfast and be set for a long time.
All the textures, all the flavors combine and it is amazing. Every bite can have a sweet and salty moment and if you are anything like me, you love that.
Kinich was hard to figure out what to do because it wasn’t just him saying what his favorite food was. It was also Ajaw saying what his least favorite food was. So like in-game, I just ignored Ajaw and went with Kinich. And decided to share this recipe with you all.
I hope that you liked this recipe. Feel free to check out this and other recipes like it. Thank you in advance. See you in the next post.
