Food: I almost always either eat granola with dried fruit and raisins in it or a poptart for breakfast. I usually supplement it with some dried fruit. Lunch and dinner are interchangeable. I only cook one meal a day and I try to do it when I'm near water. This means it's lunch or dinner. It consists of mashed potatoes most often for non cooked meals. But I do also have dehydrated hummas with chips or beans with chips if it is soon after a town I had a resupply package in (mashed potatoes are easy to get in stores). My cooked food can be anything from rice and couscous with a flavor packet to fettuchini Alfredo. To list a few cooked meals I have had lentils (terrible), gnocchi (decent), eggs and hashed brown (ok), pad Thai (excellent), rattlesnake (one of a kind), mexican rice (ok), chicken and noodles (pretty good), spam (forgettable), and Mac and cheese (average).
Camping: most people do not like to dry camp(water near by) but it does not bother me. I usually get to snappy I like between 7 and 8 and make a quick easy meal, and pack up all my food so no animals get in it. I then lay out my pad and sleeping bag. Usually change clothes to sleep in something different and write my blog once I am all situated. After that I can star watch or sleep. In the morning since most my stuff is packed up and I keep my breakfast in an outside pocket, it doesn't take long once I'm out of my bag. I change, shoes and socks, brush teeth, put sleeping bag in stuff sack, strap it all on and then I am good to go.
