I'm going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I'm going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we're expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.

However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I'm not sure if there's any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.

Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you'd recommend? Thank you so much!

Is there a reason you can't use a Coleman style camp stove or single burner backpacking stove? Those are standard fair for campgrounds and backcountry.

Jet Boil’s are compact and awesome.

Jet boils are not compact. They are awesome, just not great if you are a gram counter. Probably exactly what this guy would want though as it sounds like he is car camping.
