Soy lecithin should be no concern to anyone who consumes decaffinated coffee.

um... yeah, that's not going to happen. I think the caffeine has bonded with my red blood cells at this point.

Butternut, I read where u heated water by leaving a water bottle on top of your car. Have you tried making soup this way? Get some broth, throw in a few veggies and whatever else you want, leave it in a sealed container in the sun for a few hours voila! Soup for dinner.

Blender: (My Oster 14 spd chops ice & only uses 400 amps - less than a microwave) small bag frozen fruit or fresh fruit, egg protein powder or hemp protein powder, add either fruit juice or Soy milk, or almond milk, or coconut milk Add yogurt or veggies or Ice if you like - whatever. IT'S QUICK, EASY, NUTRITIOUS FOOD.

VONU - Hell wave, more like. <img src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/rofl.gif" align="absmiddle" border="0"> No kidding, I made Bannock bread on the hood of my Chevy. In a ziplock bag : 1/2 cup flour 1 Tbs baking powder 1 Tbs sugar 1 Tbs powdered milk add enuf water to make a dough (I like mine a bit sticky, not hard) Wipe some oil on the hood (coconut, not 20/50 weight) Plop on the dough, pat down (wet or oil ur fingas first), cover with glass lid that has some raising room under it. 10 - 12 minutes later, flip the bannock, re-cover it, 3-5 minutes later .....*OM NOM NOM* Before you do the bread - put a chicken boullion, in a cup of water, in a glass jar, or black ceramic coated steel mug on the hood so you have broth to go with the bread.

I have tried this and it seems to work pretty well. Also a great way to cook rice<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">

I know, you said no kidding but-really, on the hood of your car? I tend to be gullable so-just asking.

I'm with you dragonfly. I'm going to be super happy if this works, but I feel like there must be more involved. The jetta can totally make this happen!

No joke. It works. I'm in Florida, the air is over 100 degrees. I'll have to put a thermometer on my hood and get a reading for you guys. "wash the bugs off" - Nah, those are protein. "taste of wax" - I never wax my truck. "wipe with alcohol" - Any cootie that can survive the hellish temps of my steel hood is not going to be killed by mere alcohol!

Food, economy and humor in the same thread- what more could a vanner want? The difficulty I see is in getting the hood level- i like my bannock symmetrical.....gonna be a bear on Lurch(95 chevy van) may have to have a step ladder and use the roof...<img src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" align="absmiddle" border="0"> Think I'll just stay where its cooler and burn propane or wood for my cookin'.  I do like ingenuity and thinking outside the box in general though.

Guest · Aug 11, 2011

LOL Good point!! All I'd have to do is prop the hood open a little, but I never thought of it. No big if it comes out a little bloopy on one side, still tastes the same. <img src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/rofl.gif" align="absmiddle" border="0"> I usually drown it in broth anyway.

i've "cooked" alot of stuff in my smartmug that plugs into my cigarette lighter, and with one of those little 12V heating coils in a mug......it doesn't really boil, but gets up a good simmer pretty quickly, to hasten the prep of ramen, coucous, cup-a-soup, etc. http://www.amazon.com/Smart-Mug-Temperature-Control-Red/dp/B000F1Q24M i've seen these cheaper: http://safetycentral.com/12volheatelh.html also great for coffee, tea, hot chocolate.....

Even better...

and by "better" I mean cheaper. Hooray for wallyworld.

Ive read of many satisfied customers using these 300 degree ovens: http://www.roadtrucker.com/12-volt-cooking/12-volt-cooking.htm I have the frying pan.  Works good, but small.  Great for eggs, as advertised.   The slow cooker is seems cool, too.
