It really depends on your budget and how much time you want to put into.
If you want to keep
it on the cheap side, maybe you  just need portable cook stove e.g. a
Coleman propane type.
Add an ice chest and some rubbermaid tubs for washing/rinsing.   A cutting
board and some
cooking/eating utensils thown in a plastic/composit carrier(s) or cardboard
box for that matter
and you're good to go.

The more expensive time-consuming route might find you in a junk yard
looking for used
stoves/fridges and cabinetry.    Or bartering with other folks on this list
or Samba and you might
someone willing to part with a full or partial interior galley for $$$ or
next to nothing.   You never
know.

After that, surfing the internet for different camping configurations comes
to mind.   But I think it
gets more expensive from there....

I think I'd start the cheapest route and go from there as I always like to
bring a cookstove for
cooking outside anyway.
