How about, canned stewwed steak, chick pea dahl, pasta n sauces, batchelors savoury rice, tinned veg, alpen light bars etc.

If you are staying in a caravan you should be able to cook most things that you would do at home.

which is the best chick pea dahl to get? as I know some of them are fairly naughty, we usually dont cook very much in the evenings which wont help me as I am the only one in the family who isnt built like a racing snake already!

I don't like dhal, but my sister does. I recently bought her a tin of the Geo Organic one from Waitrose, but she found that one a bit too spicy. It is free (Green and EE) though.

Her favourite is the one from Asda. It is also free.

ratatouille is free as well which you buy in cans and maybe pour it over pasta!!

muller lights, babybel, alpen lites cans of beans eggs depending on what cooking facilities you will have!

Forward planning is the key - you can go out and eat on sw, just have to make the right choices, maybe pick a day and say "right that evening is my treat evening" after all you are on holiday - but no need to go mad all week and gain what you have just lost!

jacket spuds are always good when eating out lol

plus if in a caravan I am imagining you may be doing lots of walking too

good luck x

Teenyweeny is correct...
Jacket spuds is a good option when eating out. So is grilled steak or chicken (minus skin) with salad.
I also love salads. I tend to ask for prawn or ham or beef salad without any sauce or dressing...
Yes, and walk a lot. That really helps.
I have been on 2 holidays while doing SW and lost both times. My eating and drinking were not brilliant but I walked a lot and came back with losses both time!

Good luck, and have fun!
