Pinole is a traditional Mexican flour made from roasted ground corn, which is often sold combined with things like chia seeds, cinnamon or cocoa. It's loved by runners as a complex carb so is a good base for homemade energy bars.
It's not really a risotto due to the brown rice, but I sometimes call it that. Whatever, it's filling, tasty and highly nutritious, and thus a great one-pot meal both for van life and for fuelling exercise.
A simple curry that we never seem to get bored of and that has endless variations. For us, if you're going to try to avoid meat, you should replace it with things like lentils, so these meals feature pretty much daily on our campervan menu.
This is a fast camper van crowdpleaser, because it uses pre-cooked chickpeas and the sauce is naturally creamy and thick thanks to the combination of peanut butter and coconut milk. The lime is a nice addition because it adds an unusual and complementary sharpness at the end.
This recipe is a campervan favourite, and nicer than the meat equivalent. I usually transfer it to another saucepan once made to simmer/rest while I make the rice in the same pressure cooker afterwards.
