Hi there Galley folks. As we head into the colder days, I’ve been taking stock of some basics in my little land kitchen. I’m not a big fan of frequent shopping trips especially looking ahead to some nasty wintery days when I would much rather be curling up with a good book or binge watching some seasonal faves. Today’s recipe is one of those great to have on hand, perfect for casseroles (especially welcome for Omnia users when it it…
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 we’ll need. Making mood boards is an easy way to visualize the ‘look’. You should…
This is the recipe that started me off on a new tack when a friend found out I had a cooking blog and that I focused on easy to make, minimal boat-friendly dishes….and that onboard we are without a conventional oven. She gave me this recipe of hers to try out to see if it would be appropriate to cook in my Omnia stove top oven. The answer, a resounding YES!…and a new Galley Kat category was created: Friend’s Faves….
It’s time to talk pizza, my Galley Peeps! I’ve been posting pics of my creations for the past few months on social media because baking soothes my isolated soul and after several requests for my recipe, it’s time to write it up and share. We love pizza in our little home by the sea. I mean LOVE pizza! It’s become our Friday night special. When my son visits, he has to have his Momma pizza fix and I’m more than…
I’m having a pile of fun in my land galley this week. I can’t go anywhere anyway for obvious reasons because our province is still in it’s very early stages of loosening restrictions from the dreaded virus. Hiking trails are open, as are parks. We’re lucky to have a yard to be able enjoy fresh air and movement and it’s spring so there’s no shortage of things to do preparing the garden for planting. Every day I check the weather….
How many of you have been feeling challenged lately? You know what I mean? Limitations due to this global covid-19 pandemic. Restrictions placed on social contact. Restrictions placed on shopping. And when you do carefully venture to find even basics, certain items are either in short supply or plainly non-existant. I’m actually finding the challenges moderately exciting. What can I do to limit possible exposure? If I don’t have a certain ingredient, what can I use to substitute? Can…
Several weeks ago before we had to be concerned about going out, I met up with an old friend. We shopped. We talked. We sipped and dined. The reason I’m bringing this up is what I ordered when we dined. A simple chicken caesar wrap. I came home thinking about that wrap, it was that good. The tender morsels of chicken. The crispy lettuce and bits of bacon. The creamy tangy garlicky dressing. The crunchy bits of croutons. The soft…
A friend sent me this recipe and honestly, I can’t get enough of them, and I can’t for the life of me imagine why I would ever buy bagels again. Far too easy…and by that I mean really easy. I clocked myself from ingredient mixing to snapping photos. Thirty minutes folks. THIRTY! And that included twenty minute oven time. My only complaint is that the recipe makes just four…but that’s simply nit picking isn’t it? The beauty of them too is…
Happy belated Mardi Gras to you my Galley Peeps. I hadn’t planned on writing this one up for you guys because, well, it’s just a sandwich. The plan was for one more ‘bomb’ recipe (my last two JOAN’S TACO BOMBS and BREAKFAST BOMBS in case you missed them) but someone asked for the bread part of this recipe so I thought, why not? It really was a very delicious, very full and meaty cheesy for ‘just’ a sandwich. Super simple in construction…bread…
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…
