Does anyone have any suggestions for camping food? I'm thinking of stuff that requires the minimum of ingredients (or is premixed/cooked) so is lightweight, relatively easy to cook, not requiring equipment more complex than a couple of small aluminium saucepans (not non-stick!) cooked on a gas cooker, and will provide plenty of energy. ie food for the lightweight cycle camper carrying the minimum of kit.
Historically I've ended up eating lots of rice and pasta, since water is generally easily available, so dehydrated stuff provides value for weight, in a manner of speaking.
Looking around on the net, some peoples idea of camping food is ludicrous, requiring a mass of equipment, time, and ingredients. Fine I guess if by camping you mean out of the boot of a car, but I generally carry a knife, fork, and spoon, and one small kitchen knife, two small saucepans, a cup, and a plate that is deep enough to double up as a bowl. Not enough equipment to prepare anything very complex, so bung into a saucepan, add water, cook whilst stirring, and eat is generally about as complex as I like to get!
