Buy yourself one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Mountain-House-Classic-Assorted-Package/dp/B00955DUHQ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1505671407&sr=8-4&keywords=mountain+house
Along with a camping stove and a camping pot to boil water in (oh, and gas!). Should last you a few weeks.
Got room in a cabinet for some of these? Just sayin', would beat toothpaste.
I recently went on a 3 day backpacking trip out in the mountains here in Japan. My favorite meals were Mountain House meals. http://www.amazon.com/MOUNTAIN-HOUSE-JUST-CLASSIC-BUCKET/dp/B00955DUHQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1433404484&sr=8-1&keywords=mountain+house
They certainly aren't low calorie foods, but if you budget well, they can work. All you need is boiling water. Technically most of the bags are 2.5 servings, so you can split a bag.
I'm a Mountain House fan personally. I know some people bash them for their high price and salt content but I've never had one I didn't like. JMHHO Wife and I make our own these days but in a pinch we'll buy this one from Amazon with a prime account runs $80.
If you're looking for something a little less hurtful on the wallet. Make your own food youtube channels are wonderful. This guy is one of my favorites.
And this guy's recipe e-book is well worth the price. Most of what we make for our adventures comes from this book.

29 Servings, $60, 10 year shelf life.
I'm not really into the prepper scene, BUT I did just get this bad boy for Christmas in case shit ever really does hit the fan. Well, for a week or so, anyway. I figure it couldn't hurt, just in case.
Here you go. Use the MRs.
