Cooking in your van is an act of deliberate planning, adaptation, and flexibility. Starting when you design your van you will either be cooking with a propane system or using electric with induction cooktops. Kayla shares her experience cooking with a propane system and how she stretches her 25 lb propane tank 9 months between fills.
