You’ve caught me bomb making in my galley again and today is all about starting your day with a big bang. Those Taco Bombs from last week’s post were good weren’t they? Didn’t try them yet? Well scoot on over there for JOAN’S TACO BOMBS,then come right back to check out these lovely little breakfast treats. I made the same yogurt/flour dough from Joan’s Taco Bombs and divided it into 16 pieces this time instead of 8 and liked the…
When I first made this recipe, we were on the boat and I kind of just dumped everything into the pan, plunked the cheese on top and cooked it in my Omnia stove top oven. It was delicious but not terribly pretty. Notice how I tried to dress it up with a little basil? It did the trick as far as a healthy, easy and tasty boat dish but we are expecting more visitors soon at our little home by…
To the ‘easy’ I should add versatile for this next recipe. I first made them spread on parchement paper on a sheet pan in our land oven. Using a cookie cutter made them the perfect size to top a toasted English muffin. You tried my recipe for those didn’t you? No? Well hop to it…recipe link here As I now believe almost anything cooked in a conventional oven is possible in the Omnia Stove Top oven, why couldn’t these? So…
Chilly rainy days mean cooked breakfast aboard R.E.D. I had some fresh greens, peppers and farm eggs just begging to be turned into something belly warming. The greens I used were a mix of baby kale and arugula which gave a more crispy result. Small chopped spinach leaves work well too. Choose your peppers wisely if using the Omnia stove top oven. They should be small enough to sit as flat as possible. Also, when cutting them try to…
This little breakfast treat was surprisingly easy. I stumbled onto the idea while reading an article about the sous vide method of cooking and wondered why I couldn’t recreate these in my stove top Omnia oven. The water bath method takes one hour of cooking time and since cooking fuel/electricity is at a premium on the boat I thought that surely I can cut that time in half. I laid all my ingredients out on the counter, whipped up…
It’s surprising how little effort it takes to throw together something special for a Boxing Day breakfast or brunch. With the help of some Christmas gnome magic and all the flavours that speak of the season this creamy concoction was ready in no time. For the purpose of boat galley cooking it was made in my stove top Omnia oven but in a conventional oven it’s cooked in a cast iron skillet. It puffed up beautifully (thankfully that’s as far…
When we’re not heading out on the water early, I love putting together something a bit more special for our breakfast. On days like this our first morning coffee spills over to a second, sometimes a third so that by the time we eat it’s more of a brunch thing. Many years ago now when we were in the dating phase of our relationship, Francois used to put together some really awesome brunches. One of the things I…
There’s nothing more satisfying than a rich, creamy, custardy bread pudding. It’s like having dessert for breakfast. This was a product of using up some galley supplies. The last of my farm eggs from happy chickens, some opened canned milk, aging whole grain bread (hard to believe this one slipped by my bread-lovin’ man) and canned peaches (yes, I know fresh are in season but I’m trying to use up some provisions so I can dive into enjoying ‘real’ peaches….
One thing I bring a lot of onboard for the season is my Bisquick clone mix. It allows me to whip up scones, crepes etc with ease and it made a great topping for today’s breakfast. As I’m writing this I’m thinking it’s time to throw together some more biscuits to serve with local strawberries. But I digress. On to the recipe at hand… Little teeny tiny galley with a one burner alcohol/electric stove and no conventional oven and I can…
I think Eggs Benedict or any of its many versions is one of our favourite breakfast/brunch meals. It does however mean several stages of prep and more than just a pan or two to put it together (toasting the muffins, grilling the ham, poaching the eggs, not to mention whipping up that perfect Hollandaise sauce). In celebration of tomorrow’s National Eggs Benedict Day, I threw together (almost literally too) an easier version with all the main components and pretty much…
