I love cooking, whether at home or when I go camping.
For the first evening after setting up, I am usually too tired to cook a proper meal, usually take something like a sandwich, or some cold meat, or heat up a tin of soup to eat with some toasts, or whatever I may have pre-cooked in the freezer such as soup, stew, curry etc...
I prefer to bring all my provisions with me to the site, so that I do not have to worry about when and what my next meal is going to be, and can better enjoy myself once I have completed my set up.

I'm another one like DK who enjoys a spot of guyrope gourmet fare. I quite enjoy the challenge and ever since I saw a clip of Keith Floyd cooking up a storm on a Coleman Dual Fuel by an Italian harbour I feel I need to keep up standards!
Oh, and don't forget TV chefs have used the suitcase stoves to deliver amazing fodder: if they can do it, so can we. If inclined...
I take a couple of enamel plates for impromptu lids or to keep food warm until serving (just insulate with tea towels etc).
I quite enjoy making Courgettes Provencal (fried up onions, peppers, courgettes, tomatoes and garlic/herbs) to serve with French bread and maybe melt some cheese on top. Delicious cold as well as hot.
Also for some posh nosh, Beef Stroganoff. Fry shallots/onions, add steak sliced into strips, then some mushrooms, flambe if you dare with brandy, then add sour cream, lots of black pepper and a bit of sage. Serve with rice (if you're lazy and only want a one-pot-wonder, use the pre-cooked stuff and just stir in to warm through at the end). Lovely with green beans or just a salad.
Your post was full of detail and no doubt will inspire a few people
