Within this kitchen, you can place stove, microwave, sink, and storage for eating utensils.
Portable DIY Outdoor Kitchen
This becomes the easiest tip of all. Simply purchase a wooden table like this picture shows with one layer to place cooking equipment or fresh vegetables and spices. Use a transparent box or small containers to take up all of them.
On top of the wooden table, place stove or other cooking tools. Empty the next space of the cooking tool for placing ingredients later on. Interesting enough to see the kitchen model equips with the wooden wall or the backsplash.
