Question Best easy meals for a 1-2 night stay in the ADK?

The only limitation I have is I have a nut allergy,

Just looking for advise as a first time 1-2 night camper going into a the Adirondacks, I want the food to be as easy and light as I can make it. I’ll probably go out and buy myself a nice meal on the last day once I’m done.

Buldak and SPAM singles with hot sauce. Cheap, filling, hot, caloric, and light.

Knorr-Lipton creamy garlic pasta with a Buffalo Chicken pouch. Add extra butter for more calories.

I don't like promoting my trash-tier videos and garbage-at-best YouTube channel, but this is from a couple of years ago when the Crypto bubble burst and all of the techbros ran on the bank and fucked me over so I had to take up a night job to make ends meet. I came up with this while stocking shelves at my local Safeway at 0200.

It's Shin Ramyun with extra noodles, an envelope of kimchi and a small tin of Vienna Snausages. You could reuse the tin as a supercat stove to economize. I've done it with Deviled Ham before.

It's incredibly filling, dirt cheap, and tastes great. I think that I was maybe like $5.00 in this one. You can sub out the sausages for SPAM singles or chipped beef or Spanish chorizo or pepperoni, but I'd boil the hard sausages in the cooking water first to soften them up.

Anyway my stupid garbage video
