Yesterday, I went out and bought loads of Pork Chops, Lamb Chops, Diced Beef, sausages etc. I then stuck the lot in the oven, and a load of roast potatoes. When they were all cooked, I made a few batches of gravy, stuck all the meat in tupperware tubs, covered with gravy and froze the lot. I also made some batches of Bubble n squeak and froze that too, as well as veg and roast spuds.
I've now got about a dozen ready meals which I can just stick in the camper before I take off, which should be much better than the usual crappy ready meals from the supermarket. I plan to do much more of this and in the summer it will also help the fridge to cool down.
As these will simply just be quickly reheated in the van, I am lessening the risk of incinerating myself late at night after the pub whilst waiting for something to cook in the oven and falling asleep. As some of you know, I tend to do this quite regularly!
Oh what a good boy am I.

o what a fat boy am you-how big's the van's freezer then ? Pretty damn tiny! But I reckon if I stick the fodder in frozen, some in freezer compartment and some in fridge, slowly defrosting I should be able to get a weeks worth in. Julie only eats bird food anyway. Anyway, I'm not fat, I prefer ample or portly!
