Food

You can get pretty far with just a stainless steel 4 qt. pot.

Techniques:

>blanching
>steaming (very thin layer of water)
>deep frying
>searing (do it in batches)
>sauce-making (hot roux, cold liquid)
>boiling
>braising (with metal handle and lid)

Foods:

>steamed rice
>beans
>chili
>soup
>curry
>pasta (boil pasta, drain, set aside, make roux/sauce, add pasta back, OR add cup of water to your sauce, add dry pasta, and let it reduce)
>pot roast
>steamed vegetables
>sloppy joes
>fried food (keep it simple; don't overcrowd)

A burner of some sort even if just a contained wood fire with a grate.

Decent cookware

This. Add a knife for cutting and a frying pan if you want to get fancy.

Electricity, you dumb cunts.

bowl, spoon, can opener

I've spent time in hostels and you can eat pretty well with just those.

How are you heating the food in the pot if you JUST have that and nothing else? You would also need a stove or other heat source.

Towels
