Lunch
The trick of cooking on a camping stove is to choose meals that don't require hours of cooking as this will consume your camping stove fuel quickly. Pasta camping meals or fried dishes are always a good idea to get the most from you camping stove and still have a tasty hot meal.
The other thing to bear in mind is the limited amount of utensils and pans to use, so for the mini trangia it restricts you to a one pot meal, or with the trangia 25 and 27 series to a two pot meal.
