Boil-in-the-bag packs:
1 x Breakfast pack, such as Bacon & Baked Beans, or some such. Remarkably, they tended to actually tasted as in the description on the packaging.
1 x Main Meal (normally taken in the evening, prior to dusk, if cooked). Something like Pasta, Chicken & Mushroom in white sauce, or Lancashire hotpot, were main meals. I preferred Beef stew. It tasted better.
