Journal tuxette's Journal: going primitive - tonight's dinner 8
And, of course, we just had to test it out. We took it to a nearby park and did the following:
First, boil some water in the small casserole and add quick-cooking macaroni. While this is going on, chop up a green pepper into small bits and set aside in an appropriate container (yes, this means you need a small cutting board and a knife with you). Open up a can of sliced mushrooms, drain (you can use this water in the pasta water), add to pepper bits. When cooked, take macaroni off the stove, drain and set aside.
Next, chop up some bacon slices into bits and use the frying pan to fry this. When fried, put bacon into large casserole. Then fry 300 g. ground beef, spicing with garlic and chili powder. Add this to casserole with the bacon. Now set this casserole on the stove. Add 2 400 g. cans of chopped tomatoes (with basil/oregano). You're suddenly going to realize you should be doing this in both casseroles as the big one is not big enough (heh), so carefully divide the meat+tomato mixture and the macaroni between the casseroles, add the vegetables to each casserole, and then finish cooking one of them. Cook the other while you're eating the first.
Eat and enjoy
What does it burn? (Score:2)
We have a venerable, ultralight, but still functional MSR Whisperlite that burns white gas and an even older Primus stove that I think will burn just about anything including gasoline. I love the Whisperlite, but am one of the people who cuts the tags off the tea bags before heading out into the woods.
Have fun with it!

I replaced the beer with ginger beer - out of beer in fridge (must do something about that). It went well
The Wife liked it, however I added too much chilli for current state - 36 weeks pregnate. There are enough leftovers for lunches.
