Look behind you in that dark corner.
Tools needed:
A proper oven and a food processor capable of liquefying vegetables.

Its' the same concept as Mary's Seattle day bread, but more involved. its called nutrient loaf, you can either dehydrate it completely, make a "fruit roll up" type thing or bake
it with corn meal and whole wheat flour and baking soda for a kind of MRE. All ingredients are pureed into a liquid unless otherwise noted.
2 cups of tomatoes.
1/4 cup of onions.
1 cup of (use the greens of your choice like Spinach or mustard)
1/4 cup of soy protein OR one cup of pinto bean paste or both.
1/4 clove of garlic.
5 sticks of celery puree.
1 cup of boiled cabbage puree.
1 pureed bell pepper.
2 jalapenos pureed.
1 cup of mashed potatoes, or flakes.
1/4 cup of coconut oil butter substitute. (salted coconut oil)
1/4 cup of buckwheat flour.
1/4 cup of sunflower seed.
1/4 cup of drained sweet peas.
4 eggs.
4 cups of corn meal.
1 table spoon of baking soda OR 1/4 cup of self rising flour.
1 tablespoon of hops.
2 tablespoons of brewers yeast (KILLED!) you kill it by boiling it 5 minutes.
Mix slowly with purified or non chlorinated water until you can stand a spoon in it without falling over, divide into four 1 quart containers and let rise over night, bake like corn bread or in a loaf pan. each 5"X3" slice supposedly equals the nutrition of a meal of steak and eggs. Double wrap in a sheet of paper towel and wax paper, if kept cool and dry will keep about ten days. if you decide to make it as a roll up, stop at the sunflower seeds and spread thinly in the dehydrator. I'm curious how this stuff tastes and if its as advertised.
Supposedly its based on a type of Greek and or Roman military ration from the dark ages. Somebody mix up a batch and let me know.

I remember when I first saw this, I thought you said you don't have an oven or food processor? Then I couldn't find that in what you posted. I just see that it is in your title.

There are a few things about this recipe that I wondered about when I first read it.
Where did you find this recipe?
I wonder why the brewers yeast is killed?
 
It's a survival bread, believe it or not, the recipe comes from a sheriff. its what he feeds his repeat prisoners.
Killing the yeast is to make sure you don't end up with a mess while it ferments.

Nope, never tried it, no tools remember? :p I'm thinking its useful however as like hiking bread or maybe a kind of hard tack minus the spoilable ingredients.
 
YES! but what's the nutrition?
If I give it to bums after the SHTF will they come back?
How long will it keep?
and can I use it as trail food?
Making some in a sandwich press bombed.

EDIT:
OK, I'm making my own recipe as I type
powdered peas.
powdered carrots
potato flakes
onion powder
a dab of corn starch
beef bullion.
corn meal, dab of flour
Mix to a paste.
Olive oil as a preservative.
Should be like beef stew flavored crackers. I'll let you know.
