I much prefer a tin of Heinz mullegatony (spelling) mixed with a tin of Heinz spaghetti bolognese fab tastes like spicy noodle soup.

I've used instant veg soup with Smash before now when tent camping. Makes a poor mans Bubble & Squeak, but quite comforting when it's snowing.

Camping in a tent in the snow? Not being able to taste chemical tosh? You will be telling us you like Dombar next???

Hope those clusters have cleared off and your'e feeling a bit better
 
Sometimes Carol its great to pig out on instant shite and if you have just driven 250/300 miles I certainly don't want to start cooking so I will have that in a flask and dunk crusty bread in it FAB U LOUS.
 
They forgot to tell you David that the Cairngorms National Park Authority are to install 'No overnight motor-home parking' sings at the summit in the spring?

You really do need to explore your local chip shop more Anne.

They sell food that you don't have to cook and good for you with the lowest in calories of all take-aways.
 
Unfortunately I tend to travel at night and arrive at my destinations anywhere from Midnight to 5.00 am not sure the local chippy will stay open for me, anyway I happen to like my Heinz concoction.

I was once told no one has ever seen Anne in the daylight and they thought traveling by besom can only be done at night? :scared::scared::scared:
 
Went to a Scottish chippy once, ordered meat pie and chips, chips into the fryer to finish off, then pie into the fryer:scared:. Best meat pie and chips I've ever had. Never travel without cuppa soup though.:nicethread:

Never believe everything you are told of course I go out in daylight how else do I get to eat CHILDREN you didn't really think it was rabbit stew I made at a couple of meets. ha ha ha cackle cackle cackle.
 
When driving for work in Europe at this time of year, space is tight , so I carry a gas burner and kettle, with teabags and powdered milk, Pot Noodles and pots of porridge, to cover the middle of the night hunger pangs, sod the E numbers, they wake me up.
 
Heinz Tomato Cuppa Soup...

... Yes, really as a cuppa soup and fab. Nearly as good as the tinned.

Can't praise cuppa soups enough for a quick hit.

Make loads of soup too in slow cooker and pressure cooker. Today and tomorrow was / will be pea and mint. Yesterday was Spanish tomato with potato and garlic.

Agreed, I like a good home made soup. Leek and Potato is a favourite as well as Pea and Mint.

We often freeze them in tupperware containers to take in the van. They make good ice blocks to help keep the 'fridge cool on the road, and a quick meal en route.
 
Add some blue

add some blue cheese to the leek and potato .... Another recent fav is Puy lentil with tomato and bacon!

We're virtually full time, so I make in the evening or morning and consume at lunch.

Yeah will do that. She already does the Stilton and Broccoli which is another favourite.
 
Recipe Section

The tricks to motorhome cooking are:

  • Tasty - we all love the good things in life or we wouldn't be motorhomers (!) and the fresh air gives us an appetite,
  • Relatively quick to cook (or pressure cooker / slow cooker) as we have better things to do with our time, such as an aperitif, and we don't want to use too much of our own gas
  • Stores well so we can have left overs the next day or put into the freezer
  • Easy to come by ingredients - I already have to give friends and family a shopping list every time they visit us for what I consider essentials, without the problem of additional space used up by 'one use' ingredients
Shouldn't there be a shared recipes section on the Forum ... organised by type of food and searchable by ingredient. Admin???
