Whisk up a couple of eggs, & add a few handfulls of grated cheese & some black pepper- leave to one side.

Boil some finely chopped onion in a big pan of salted water till it's nearly soft, add  macaroni (or other pasta) & continue to boil till soft.

Simultaneously fry chopped bacon & mushrooms in just a little oil.

Drain the cooked pasta & add it to the frying pan containing the bacon / mushrooms, (over lowest heat) then quickly stir in the egg/ cheese so that it coats the pasta & the ingredients are well combined. When the cheese is melted, your quick macaroni cheese is ready to serve.

I never weigh the ingredients - just go by eye to make it to my own taste.

(Omit onions and / or mushrooms if you prefer, or add sliced up sausages or peppers or parsley, or whatever you fancy).

You would be very welcome to come and dine with me Steve - I love cooking and enjoy it even more when I'm camping.
Last time we went away another camper came over and was shocked but impressed to see me dishing up a full sunday "roast" dinner!!

It's amazing what you can cook with minimal equipment and you can't beat starting the day with a full English brekkie!!

Top tip...  Cook a stew/casserole of any description, but with more water than usual, then just bung in pasta or rice when it's done, to cook in the same pot.  Means you can cook on one ring and in a single pot.  The rice/pasta absorbs the stock and tastes fab.

Hi,

As well as the chilli, bolognese, paella and fajitas, we also cook kedgeree - works a treat. Also, we sometimes take chilli / bolognese that we have previously made at home and frozen. The frozen pack can then thaw out in the electric cool box, so it is all ready for warming through without having to start from scratch every day.

Every little helps...
