I backpack solo most of the time, as a result for years I did not bother with ready-made meals. They tend not make them for a single serving or if they did it was just a side. But oh all of that changed when I picked up a Good To Go meal a few years back.
They make single serving meals that actually taste good, scratch that they taste GREAT on the trail. They also have veg and vegan options. I also tend to go in the cold months more than the summer, and a warm meal can really be great. Heck, just holding the bag makes you warmer!
If you are a solo backpacker you need to check out Good To Go meals.
