If the van is a rocking, I’m probably making butter.
Potatoes, Eggs & Black Bean Breakfast Scramble
This is one of our favorite breakfasts and we have eaten it multiple times per week, for several years. Eggs are essentially the perfect food. Tasty, nutritional, and very inexpensive. When scrambled with the satisfying starch of a potato, some black beans and your favorite hot sauce on top, you’ll look forward to having it day after day. With the cost of this meal being less than $2 per portion, you really can’t go wrong!
Dirty brownies
These super-indulgent brownies are easy to make, look incredible and taste even better. Reserved only for those who have a serious sweet tooth! Best served warmed up with vanilla ice-cream.

2 ingredient Flatbreads
Yes you read that correctly, 2 ingredient Flatbread, yep, just 2! All you need to cook it is some heat and a pan!
In a van kitchen storage, ingredients and cooking facilities can be limited so recipes with minimal ingredients are ideal. You can vary the flavours in this and there are optional extras to make it even more tasty. Plus it can be cooked on an open fire so even those with no cooking facilities can enjoy this meal.
This is recipe is a Turkish flatbread known as Bazlama and it’s about to rock your world!

Dandelion salad
This simple salad is easy to make and the eggs could be cooked in a pan on an open fire if outdoors. Also, everyone loves to forage.
Crumpet Avo Sunshine
Crumpet avo sunshine:
Looks fancy but it’s dead simple, it’s just more appetising some times when you put some effort for the plating.
Date Bites
Easy to make snacks for a little sweet treat.
Curry Risotto
The curry flavour in this recipe gives a different take on a risotto, but it’s still just as delicious.
Caramelized Fennel, Apple & Blue Cheese Frittata
Ok so here is one of my favourite recipes for living in a camper as it’s so quick easy and versatile! The great thing we love about frittata is we can make them anywhere with our gas stove and grill… You can add anything you want and it’s a great way of using stuff up.
Typical Slovak dish
The recipe is for typical Slovak dish Spinach with potatoes and eggs. This is a vegeterian version, but by adding sausage fried on the pan you can make it more meat-eaters friendly. Equipment needed – saucepan, pot, frying pan and hand mixer to mix the spinach.
Chicken & Mushroom Risotto
This special extra starchy rice makes a delicious creamy meal that pairs perfectly with mushrooms. If you don’t like chicken then beets, shrimp or pumpkin squash can also be good options.
Aquafaba Chocolate Mousse
This one is a delicious and easy to make 2 ingredient chocolate mousse that also happens to be vegan (if you use vegan chocolate & milk)
The catch: you need an electric mixer. So if you are a normal person and don’t have an electric mixer in your van, this might not be for you.
Feta Orzo Salad
Just an amazing summer cold dish, full of fresh/raw ingredients prepared in absolutely no time. The main ingredient is orzo, which is basically pasta in the shape of rice, which pairs perfectly with the vinaigrette & fresh veggies.
One-pot Jollof Rice
Though this is by no means a Chilean recipe, it was the rice dish we made the most in Chile by far, as it uses ingredients which are easy to find all over the country, and only requires one pan.
It’s also delicious cold, so we always make double portions, to avoid having to worry about lunch the next day.
