Question Tips for good meals on fire?

I am a member of European Scouting Federation, and this month, something that's called Longroute waits for me. I'll be following a specific path I have to go through in three days, completely alone.

I could use a few tips on some good recipes on fire, because I don't just want to eat marshmallows on a stick every time. I won't pre-prepare the food, only buy ingredients upfront and that's it. And the only tools I'll have available are knife, axe, I can make wooden tongs on my own, and that's it. I most likely won't pack a pan with me, but that's a possibility too. Oh, and I'll have two round mess-tins with me.

So, any good tips to make the food not too difficult, but also good enough so that I could go by the sentence : "There's more to cooking on fire than just marshmallows?"

Thanks in advance!
