Some of these recipes sound great, will definately be trying next weekend. 

 We've aways found fresh filled pasta and a tub of fresh pasta sauce an easy, tasty and filling meal

I'm feeling  really quite hungry after reading all these nice recipes and ready meal ideas. I actually do not cook anything when camping or home, I help prepare food peel etc and wash up mainly as I cant cook. Play the hunter gather part build shelter So I shall get the OH to read these treads for some ideas, she love cooking and comes up with some good meals.

Don't know about tinned chicken in gravy, but my family likes it in white sauce.  The best one at a reasonable price seems to be Ye Olde Oak brand.  Pure chicken breast.  Cheap ones tend to be just sauce.  Warm it all up in one big pan with your tinned tatties, carrots, peas etc - lovely!

What type of food do we cook???

As little as possible!!!   

This time, turned the kettle on for coffee!

Turned the grill on for toast! Did make cheese on toast too!!

Took fresh fruit and a few tins, came back with the tins

Ate out the rest of the time!

I'm on holiday 

Nicola - I could learn a lot from you!

I like your style!

I'm lucky have an OH who can make a cordon bleu meal out of and on anything. 1 gas ring and a frying pan and a disposable BBQ.

People often look at our plastc plates and bowls full of beautiful smelling and tasty food.

great ides everyone, we need to go get some stuff for our trip next week so i think i will keep a look out for some of these bits, we are trying to go on the cheap this time so this lot will be very handy,

we only have one cool box but i have lots of icepacks, i freeze the milk, and any meat we intend on using,  then i take lots of dried or tinned/jarred stuff, last time it was a jar of brockwurst sausages for hotdogs and beans, thin cut minute steaks from asdas with melted cheese on top in crusty bread, and a bbq with new tates, 

for lunch we just tended to eat on the hop, so whatever the kids fancied, jam butties, crisps, fruit ect,

I've just read this whole thread thinking exactly that Nicola.....

Okay, I do bacon butties in the morning but soup and sandwiches is a good tea in our tent. Eat out a lot I have to say.

Think I might surprise OH and make a stew this time..
