Recently one of my Galley Peeps emailed me to say she came across my BISQUICK CLONE mix and sent me this really REALLY easy biscuit recipe, making easy that much easier. It’s perfect for boat or RV/camper folks because all you need is some biscuit mix, a little melted butter and a can of creamed corn….things you would normally have on hand. That’s it! And my […]
Hi there my Galley Friends. I hope you are well and looking forward to some good spring weather as we are on the east coast. Bit by bit things are opening up as the dreaded virus subsides. I still don’t go out much for retail ventures so I spend time in my land kitchen concocting ways of not using commercially prepared ingredients. It’s a challenge […]
As promised, here’s my recipe for delicious Chickpea Stew and Cornbread Dumplings. For this quantity you can half my Corn Meal Muffin recipe which should give you room for eight or nine dumplings. The results are very much like chicken pot pie without the chicken. Another time I did add some cooked chicken leftover from Christmas that I had stashed away in the freezer but […]
Hi there folks. I realize that I’ve been a wee bit absent lately. I get that way sometimes, feeling my inspiration lacking but every time I start thinking about spring and what form it might take – specifically, picking up our little land trawler, RED II camper extrordinaire – I get motivated. Planning is my thing and at the moment I’m making lists of what […]
Hello there Galley Peeps. Glad you stopped by today because, while going through some of my Friend’s Fave recipe submissions, I came across one from a French follower. Written in French too. My French guy said he had never heard of a Tartiflette but his eyes lit up when I mentioned that it had stinky French cheese and doesn’t he love stinky French cheese. Reading […]
Good day my faithful Galley Friends. Well, it’s been quite a year hasn’t it? I hope you have all managed to come through it healthy and safe. Here in our little country home by the sea, it has been fairly easy…fairly. As with most of you though we are going through COVID fatigue. Holiday celebrations were not as in years past. Our families were separated […]
Good day my Galley folks. While this COVID thing has meant outing restrictions, I’ve focused my energies on simplifying my already simple life even further. This combined with my dislike of commercial mixes had me coming up with a plan for a make-ahead treat. Today in my little land galley, I’m mixing up a batch of chocolatey brownies. Before I go any further, a word […]
Digging into my stash of Friend’s Faves submissions, I found this delicious recipe for easy butter chicken from Ginny, using ground chicken made into tender juicy little meatballs, floating in a buttery tasting tomato sauce. The surprise was how buttery it all tasted with only a small amount of butter added at the end. This would be the perfect time to try making the meatballs, […]
True confessions from the Galley. I’ve never made gnocchi before. Never eaten gnocchi before. I’m not sure why exactly except I always had the impression that it was some sort of doughy tasteless pasta. Boy, was I wrong! As I was making the gnocchi, I kept sampling the little ‘slugs’ as they rose to the top of the boiling water. Shameful I know, but I […]
