Find a druid province or other area giving nature magic. Get to nature 3 preferably (nature 2 + Thistle Mace will do), and Construction 6. A Cauldron of Broth will feed 50 men from a single misc slot.

An endless bag of wine is considerably cheaper than a cauldron of broth. It only costs 5 nature gems, and feeds 25 troops. Which lets you feed 100 troops for the same gem investment as a cauldron. Just put them on scouts that remain hidden with your armies.
