Before I went no meat I cooked mussels, white wine, a tin of tomatoes and some 2min pasta.
Bloody good and mussels were every where in nz over there they should have a similar.
Also cheese toasties a in a fry pan are good,
One pan meals will work well, it just really depends if you want something really quick - or something that you are going to toil over for a while. Always look for shops that sell locally made eat’s like chorizo, jerkey, sauces and jams.
my time to cook varies, just depends on when I roll into camp etc.
tonight I’m havin veggie stirfry & noodles (provided I can find another fkn fuel canister. seems the vast majority on sale are a different connection, dammit)
Cous cous is good, really fast and uses very little gas. Fry some capsicum, courgette etc first, set them aside, cook cous cous top with veges, roast almonds maybe some lamb if your flash and some yogurt and or hummus.
on bike -
Pancakes w/ nutella are a fav of mine.
Fried salami with quinoa
lots of freeze dried meals just cause they are easy and i’m lazy - really should look into dehydrating my own stuff.
powdered milk and chocolate nesquick in a gladbag with a straw is ace.
rice porridge and dried fruit.
car, whole different ball game because of a fridge/esky. our menu normally see’s below.
pre-cooked curry/spagbol/bean chilli/stew frozen lasts in the bottom of the esky for a few days.
baked spuds
nacho’s over coals are fucking amazing. As is pizza.
roast lamb
said roast lamb can be then fried with chilli and lemon and turned into ‘souvas’ good meal for a big group.
jaffel maker - left over sausages with canned spag bol in the coals gives mouth burning goodness.
Or tin of tomatoes, diced potatoes, good sausage and some veges for a one pot stew. Takes a while and needs stirring occasionally but good for a change.
