    Jacket potatoes with leftover spag Bol as a filling. Meatloaf, great on sandwiches as leftovers too. Soup and bread rolls , there are some nice tinned ones. Breakfast for dinner, dippy eggs, bacon and eggs etc, baked beans and spaghetti

    Stir fry with hoikken noodles. Easy as chicken with hoisin sauce, or sweet and sour and soak the noodles in hot water till they fall apart. Buy the long life ones not the refrigerated ones.

    Oooh, some great ideas, thanks everyone!

    Amelia - I'd love to take our SC, but we have absolutely no room! We have to pack so much stuff because we are away for so long, so unfortunately I can't bring it.

    What about making some meals & vac sealing them? Then you could just put it in the fridge for the day & heat it up over the stove? This is what we do on big trips just to take the pressure off. Great for those nights when you've been travelling all day & don't have much daylight or energy left!
    I have book called Caravan Chef that I found very useful while camping. Includes things like
    Savoury Omlettes
    Chicken Noodle Soup
    Pasta dishes
    Stir Fried Rice
    Chicken Risotto
    Veggie Risotto
    Chicken Casserole
    Stir Fried Beef & Veggies
    Salmon Rissoles
    Curries
    All done on the stove too.

    Good luck!

    You could use couscous in place of rice for some dishes - it cooks by just adding boiling water
