"portable" brown rice/other grain?

I'm going to camp in a day for 1 week, and we can bring food, only to store in the cabins. (non perishable.) Is there any way to bring brown rice or grain without bringing a huge pot of it? I know this is a weird question, but thanks!
If you have access to a microwave you can get individual servings in a 2pack conatainer. I think it's made by minute rice they have brown and brown with wild rice. I don't use them anymore since my rice cooker but this is better than no rice at all. Hope this helps and have fun.
Do you live near a costco? They have these premade packets of quinuo/brown rice and another with seasoned chickpeas. I usually cook one of each and mix them together. They need to be microwaved, but I am sure if you call and ask, the camp must have one.
Thanks guys! I'm not sure about a microwave, but the best I'm doing is bringing some unsweetened instant oatmeal packets, and I whipped up some of the rice crispy treats (superhero edition) from Alicia's book. I may go shopping again, but thanks for the ideas!
Trader Joe's sells them in packets, premade. Just heat and serve or eat as is.
The costco Quinoa and rice blend is VERY good! You put it in the microwave for 90 seconds to steam in it's own bag
Hi Olivia. This may not be quite what you had in mind but how about rice cakes? They go with anything (sweet or savoury), and don't need any cooking/heating.
