Need suggestions for quick and easy dinners

I like to cook, but not when I'm camping. When I'm camping Id rather hike in the woods, watch the sun set, photograph birds, sit in front of a fire, well you get it anything but cook. We are off on a winter/spring adventure and I'm thinking on meals that I can just put on the table. I have no oven and many of our planned stops are either dry campgrounds or just boon docking. Can anyone give me some ideas on what to cook?

    We buy a whole cooked chicken at the grocery store. Take all the meat off and put in zip lock bags.

    Good for chicken Caesar salads, sandwiches, burritos, chicken nachos, chicken wraps.

    a dear friend of mine would buy aluminum pans and make dishes at home and freeze them then pop them in the oven for an hour and have hot dinners. she would make shepherds pie and other great dishes

    Microwave frozen dinners. Some really good ones now, not like the old TV dinner days.

    Get a slow cooker. Load a corned beef, turn it on and go. Come evening boil,up some cabbage and potatoes. Next morning corned beef hash. Then if there is anything left corned beef sandwiches or rubens.
