Chili is another vanlife go-to. This particular recipe can be made on the stove in a single pan, and aside from the meat, everything can be stored in the pantry. It can be made very quickly, but honestly, it’s better if left to simmer for an hour or more.
This meal can be stretched by using corn chips and cheese to make chili pies, or it can be served with saltines, cornbread, or anything else you like to eat with chili.
