Boat Meals - Ideas

I guess our question is new recipes. Looking for ideas that are relative quick, something we haven’t thought about before. Maybe hearing your top, favorite meals it inspire us.

Pillsbury pizza crust to make calzone/panzerotti...layout crust..thin it...one tube makes too much for 2 people cut in half. Add your favorite pizza items, cheese...fold over... bake in oven until brown...pour meat sauce or spaghetti sauce over it.... glass of red wine....super quick and easy

Here’s one we tried that was in the Great Lakes Scuttlebutt this past summer. She has a cheepo spiralizer ($10 ? at BBBY) so we use fresh zucchini, haven’t tried the frozen. it’s a hit with us. Super easy.

For 29 years I have survived by never wavering from golden rule number one for gift giving, Never buy the wife anything with a power cord attached
Merry Christmas!
Carpe Diem

Rule??

According to my wife that is a freaking LAW!!!

Any kind of seasoned Mexican meats (al pastor, chorizo, carne asada) carry well in a container that can be cooked or reheated on the stove, in an oven, and I guess worst case...a microwave.

All you need are tortillas, salsas, lime, and of course...a nice mezcal.

Pastas and a protein are another go-to for me -- Italian sausage, shrimp (fresh or frozen), or chicken.

Cold soba noodles are nice on a hot day -- if you have a Japanese market nearby, they almost always have mentsuyu (the broth) pre-made if you don't feel like making your own.

Satays and dipping sauces are always easy.

We also buy trader joes pizza crusts (they're long rectangular shaped) and cut them in half. They fit perfectly in a small pizza stone that I put on my magma gas grill. I can run off 4 of those pizzas in minutes and they get nice and crispy. We do them for lunch and dinner all the time.

The crusts freeze beautifully so you can keep them on the boat for a long time

Front hit around 7 or so. Wind and rain for a while, nothing huge.

Got up this morning and it is cold (for here), 50 degrees. Very windy, forecast says cold again tonight the getting back to normal.

Is it the set that stacks together? If so, I have them, and I must say I am incredibly impressed with them.

At home I have All-Clad pots and pans which cost a small fortune, but the Magmas are nearly as effective as those!

Bon appetit!

Yep, 10 pieces I think. They seem very nice and weigh a lot.

People oblivious to the fact that the old school pressure cookers have been around for decades vs their modern day instant pot!

Dinner last night. We loved it. We have a spiral cutter on the boat, so used fresh squash and fresh spinach.

Now on the permanent boat menu.

Thanks

When we get to boat for first time in the spring we either have Costco chicken or pizza.

What about apple snicker salad? This unique and delightful dish combines the crispness of fresh apples with the sweetness of Snickers bars, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. The apples provide a refreshing crunch while the chopped Snickers bars add a satisfyingly rich and chewy element. Typically, the salad is also infused with a creamy mixture of whipped topping and vanilla pudding, which not only binds the ingredients together but also adds a luscious, dessert-like quality. This unexpected combination of ingredients makes apple snicker salad a favorite at potlucks and gatherings, offering a playful twist on traditional fruit salads and showcasing how creativity can lead to unexpectedly delicious results. Whether enjoyed as a side dish or a sweet indulgence, apple snicker salad is sure to spark conversations and leave taste buds intrigued.

All my left over BBQ, taco meats, and can even prep other proteins in a vacuum bag and freeze. Sous vide it back to life. No bulky appliance to carry.

Since people have resurrected this old thread, I will post a simple potato side recipe I did on the boat a few weeks ago. We had steak as the meat, and a bagged salad kit as the veg.

I cut russet potatoes into slices (disks) a bit less than 1/2 thick. Then I put some sliced fresh garlic, salt, old bay, some pepper corns and a bay leaf into a pot of water and boiled the potato pieces until they were not quite done, but almost. Took them out on a plate, put some oil on them, and put them aside while the steaks were cooked on the Magma.

Then when the steaks came off to rest, I put the slices on the grills and browned and crisped them up on both sides.

Fantastic. Better than fries.

@Creekwood we do something similar with Yukon Golds. We cut them in half and dip the cut face in butter and pepper mix then put face down on grill. After they come off the lamb chops go on. Yum, super easy and delicious.
