Yes, bring Shan Masala with you as many fellows advised...

My son likes boiled potatoes, eggs & corn, fried peas & steaks...these are easy to cook dishes.Ask your mom how to marinade steaks... after that preparation is not a hard job, I think if you too like this type of food, You can manage it easily :P
