Living in a Van Without a Refrigerator

[@bebopandbecca3096]

I recently got "The Storm Gourmet: A Guide to Creating Extraordinary Meals Without Electricity " which I've found to be extraordinarily helpful for creating a pantry and meals without refrigeration or stoves. It's aimed at people living in coastal areas who experience severe weather and outages but is very practical when applied to vanlife as well.

[@ABCpdc]

I’m going to have to look for this!!

[@bebopandbecca3096]

Sounds awesome. I’ll have to check it out.

Do you have to have Prime to get it on Kindle App?

Hi Dee 🙋 For those glass bottles - grab a pack of kids tube socks. Fit like a glove! Baby socks work with the tiny jars. We also used them for stacking the sterno cans. Also when in a store ask for the cardboard seperators that are in the boxes they throw out. Can cut them to size & double them if you want a extra layer of protection. We've even used them to seperate the propane bottles.

[@LadyBugout]

Nice!!! Great idea🙌🏼

[@JeffeysMom]

I love the idea of using kids socks! My grandsons are always losing socks, so I have a lot of odd ones on hand

[@JohnBoyJoy]

You would have been a great person to have along on a wagon-train trip back in the 1820's to 1870's, traveling from Missouri to the western shores or gold fields. These people had no refrigerators and got to go shopping just once, which was at the beginning of their six-month trip!

[@EfficientRVer]

While I'm in the fridge/freezer camp, I can understand and respect the simplicity of avoiding the need to worry about breakdowns and manage the required power. Some of my tricks with the fridge/freezer plus soft-sided cooler bag setup I use, can be used in some circumstances without a fridge or freezer. I put water and other drinks into the freezer, for later swapping into the cooler bag, creating a fridge. It also gives me partially-frozen water (or other uncarbonated drink) bottles to drink. That was a life saver in Quartzsite in July. You could so something similar with snow (or much better, denser ice) harvested outdoors, put in your cooler bag. A pound of snow and a pound of ice have the same cooling energy, the snow just takes up more space. If you can't find ice, pack snowballs as tightly as you can, lol. When you're somewhere that it goes below freezing overnight, or with lots of snow, you could lay out water bottles on the ground overnight on snow/ice, to get them at least partially frozen for use in your cooler bag. Likewise, harvesting ice/icicles from Nature, into Ziplocs could work. You could even pack snow around water bottles outdoors, both to cool the bottles and to melt the snow into a pan where it might freeze into ice. Loves seeing your lists of basic food staples to keep on hand. Some good ideas I'll try, though even after adding some, my own list in each category will still be shorter than yours. Try throwing an oatmeal packet into your pancake mix, I recently started doing that, plus substituting Aldi Strawberry/Kiwi juice ($1.25 per half gallon here, about half the cost of most of their other flavors) for water when making pancakes. Yum, and a very different texture.

Awesome tips, Dee! I use a portable Alpicool C20 just for the warmest months and I am boondocking a lot. Otherwise my Igloo cooler works fine and it holds 90% of my foods. It is also a great protection from insects, possible rodent invasion ( none in two years so far) and dust/dirt from old logging roads. My canned goods and sealable food packages go in slide out bins under my bed. Even resealable packages get placed in double ziploc bags for protection. I love your organizational skills. I have shopped at Ikea and found great storage items.

[@funcheckout9701]

Hello Dee. If you frequent 2nd hand shops or charities, I highly recomment you pick up a candle food warmer. Buy the candles with a high wall, so the flame sits under metal dish. I have boiled water and heated food in a metal dish on this. Plus you can put a bowl of water on this and a few drops of essential oil and your van will smell beautiful with health benefit of it as well. Use beeswax candles for use indoors......use parafin wax candles out doors with citronilla essential oils to keep bugs away. Very important to have as a back up incase you break or run out of fuel for burner camping stove.

[@LadyBugout]

Great tips. Thank you💃🏻

In my country there are also little plastic pots for sale for like peanutbutter and honey. You can have the coconutbutter etc. also in smaller bottles. I assume you have all these bags so you can storage them better in your car, but you have a lot of waste in your car this way.

Happy Birthday Dee! [I still have a prezzie 🎁 for you from last year-one of these days…] That said, Trader Joe’s always has the little coconut oil packs-I use them as well because they are easy to store and keep really well.🌿

[@Swimdeep]

P.S. Our foodstuffs are virtually identical! I have a small dehydrator and I will dehydrate most fruits and vegetables for storage and space. I’m so used to doing this because of backpacking and pre-making most of my meals. The savings all around are dramatic. About 1/5 of the price of buying the meals or the dehydrated foods/snacks. I have a great fruit jerky recipe-let me know if you want it. 🌿

[@LadyBugout]

Very cool! Sure… I can always use new recipes.

[@Swimdeep]

@@LadyBugout So…The fruit jerky is easy and delicious. This recipe can be used with most fruit and berries. I use a mini Bullet blender to purée my fruit and a low watt dehydrator. Apricot and Peach Fruit Leather Wash, cut, and purée fruit. Heat puréed fruit over low heat for 10-15 min. til fruit is mushy. You can add sugar if you like it sweeter. Line drying trays with parchment paper being sure to have the paper come up on the sides to keep purée from running off. Pour out fruit evenly on to parchment paper, dry at 154°F for 3 hours or til “leathery.” Store in airtight bag or container. Keeps for weeks. 🍑 The dehydrator I use is small and pretty energy efficient. 240w x3hrs on an inverter while I’m driving-the power is generated and “free.” Sent you a DM on IG with info.

[@jwebbw]

Remembering when I used to winter camp, my whole vehicle at night would become a refrigerator in the wintertime, literally. During the day, an ice chest 'without ice' would keep my semi-perishable foods cool for the most part. I always played it safe during the winter and would stay pretty close to civilization. Because of the cold weather in the single digits, I'd stay within a few miles of an auto parts store, just in case and also food store to buy perishable food items for immediate consumption. Take care, stay warm and travel on !!

[@LadyBugout]

Good tips. Thank you☺️

[@sherried79]

I just added one of those bag sealers to my Amazon cart! Hehe I thought it was such a cool thing when you showed it in a different video but I forgot about it until this video. Anyway, I bought a 12v fridge a few weeks ago and I remember how excited I was to buy it. It's used but I only paid 80 after he marked it down from 120. It's nice and I'm happy but I'm glad I watched this. I'm not vegan, but I truly need to be for my health but I do know that there will be times I won't be able to charge my solar due to weather or whatnot so it's possible I could be without power so I plan to have things on hand like you mentioned but I did not realize you could get dried strawberries! So freaking cool! Lol I have fruit in my sticks and bricks fridge now that I'll never eat before it goes bad. I tell myself to stop buying so much but I somehow still do it. Crazy. However, I'm thinking I won't be as wasteful when I convert to van life. I know my water usage will go way down. I waste it when I brush my teeth for sure so that will stop. lol happy trails!9
