First dinner in the motor home since March steak Jersey royals and tinned carrots and peas
We only eat tinned carrots and peas in the motor home started with jars from French supermarkets
Do you have a food or meal you only have in the motor home?
 
you appear to like your pepper!! >>>> it would take me a year to use that much...
 
I often use tinned carrots and peas in the MH but never at home. We only have muesli on travels as don’t have a microwave for our usual porridge. If we pass an M&S food shop on the way, their frozen roast potatoes are very nice, and instant custard is a make do option. I often buy a ready meal too for my husband but not for me as I cannot find any vegetarian without onion or garlic.

Question about Porridge just curious why you cook it differently.

We cook porridge at home with water and milk directly in cereal bowls on low setting in microwave. I couldn’t be bothered with washing up a sticky saucepan and standing stirring it on the gas hob.
 
Too new to motorhoming to have a "van only" meal, but when i was a kid camping with my parents, my mum would sometimes do a quick'n'easy dinner which was tinned stewing steak heated and then some tinned pea/carrot mix added to it. Helped down with some thick cut bread with loads of butter. My brother and I affectionately named this meal "cat food" and it's called that to this day in our household!
 
This will upset those in Jockland. 3 tablespoons of dry porridge in my China dish, cover with water, 2 mins in the Micky, add milk to make a gooey mess add 15 grapes then scoff the lot. Every day when at home.👍🏼
 
I cannot restock on tinned carrots and peas, tried 3 supermarkets so far. You can have carrots on their own or peas on their own.
Before you say, “just mix them” each can too big, would last days!

Always in our van is a tin of stewed steak, tins of veg, tin of potatoes. Throw em all in the same saucepan and heat. Known in the family as a lazy tart's tea!
Same in our van used to be called Caravan stew

Mrs bags always packs 2 pre cooked and frozen meals - chilli and a curry normally . Gradually defrost in the fridge and makes a stress less first couple of meals - they taste better than anything shop bought as well
 
Prince's chicken in white wine sauce (tinned) with rice or pasta, is my 'emergency' moho meal

Wouldn't dream of eating it at home
 
Oh disappointed... When I saw OP's foto I thot oh great... a facetube type thread where everybody going to show "look what I made for my dindins fotos..its better than yours"
But thankfully, no, Funsters far to sensible for that daft carry on🤣🤣

Most of the time cook as would at home apart from buying local produce that you can't buy in the UK. Only things we use in the van that we don't use at home is instant mash and tinned potatos (use them for saute potatoes).
Do carry tinned peas & carrots for emergency often sit in the van for years.
 
I have frozen ready meals, homemade. Usually a chicken curry and a lasagna.
