There is a good recipe out of 700 Years of English Cooking. Since I don't
have it here and you need it now, I'll summarize and you can experiment if
you want to. Its Fried Beans and Onions. Saute onions in oil, add kidney
beans, ginger, cinnamon and another sweet spice. Heat. The onions, beans
and sweet spices make a tastey mix and the dish is good hot or cold.
Also try a small roast, 3-4 lbs if you have a spit. Grilled fresh veggies
are also good, somehow the campfire makes them taste better!:)
