KEN'S STUFFED POTATOES

Bake a few spuds in the microwave. (One spud only takes a few minutes) Cut the spuds in half and scoop out the mash.

Empty a tin of pilchards into a separate bowl (Remove the bones) mash up the pilchards and add some brown sauce. Add the mashed spuds and mix together. Chop up a small onion and add to the mix. If it looks a bit sloppy add some bran. Spoon the mixture back into the spud shells - pile it up. (You can now let it go cold if you want it later.)

When you are ready to eat - put a slice of cheese on the top and bake or microwave for a few minutes.
Serve with salad or beans.

(Actually - the pilchards, onion, bran and brown sauce mixture also makes a good cheap sandwich filling)
 

FANTIC'S FRIED POTATO AND BACON
(And Anything Else Really)

When you make a 'normal' meal during the week before you go away for the weekend, make twice the amount of Potatoes, mashed, diced, whole, halved, whatever. Save the extra half in the fridge. (This could also be leftovers, potatoes and vegetables without gravy, which then becomes Bubble and Squeak)

On site, use the stored, pre-cooked potatoes and add to a frying pan with hot butter and bacon/sausage/beans etc etc ... Takes as long to cook as making bacon ...

Seriously scrummy, especially when the potato/butter gets browned

SUPREMEMUM'S PASTA OLIVES AND FETA CHEESE

One of favourite quick camping meals

Boil some pasta, drain, stir in some Dolmio sauce, chuck in some olives and feta cheese and eat straight from the pan with a nice fresh crusty French stick and wash down with a bottle of red wine.
 

Thinly cut steak, flash fried, stuffed in a warmed ciabatta roll with some blue cheese.....mmmm mmmmmmm. Or bacon and brie. Both even better with some sliced mushrooms fried in butter. And calories give you energy for the long walk you'll need to go on after to work everything off!!
 

SUPREMEMUM'S CURRIES AND CHILLIES

Can be cooked at home, double portions, one for now at home and the other frozen in an empty ice-cream tub to take camping with you for the first couple of nights. Much nicer than tinned ones, and you know what's gone in them too.
