Easy Family Boating Recipes

Eating well when boating adds to the overall enjoyment of being on the water, spending time together, and enjoying nature.

Easy Family Boating Recipes include few ingredients and can be prepared on a two burner stove. Many vessels have a BBQ where all or a portion of meals can be prepared.

My experience has been menu planning and provisioning boats with two burners and an icebox.

Snack Ideas for Boating

Easy Snacks for Your Boating Crew

Boating Snacks - Free ReportPerhaps mid-morning, or mid-afternoon your crew is hungry and mealtime is a few hours away. It is a good time for a cheese snack. Cut slices or sticks off a block of cheese. Note - buying a block of cheese is more economical than a bag of cheese sticks if you and your crew plan on using it as a snack often. A piece of cheese between two crackers with a little slice of ham is a also a tasty snack.

Crackers can be spread with some cream cheese or peanut butter. Your crew, especially the children, may enjoy strawberry jam or grape jelly between two crackers.

Breakfast Idea

Pancakes and Eggs

Pancakes are one of our favorites to make on board. A pancake mix requiring adding water only is an easy way to prepare the batter. Use the fry pan to prepare the pancakes.

Hint: Make extra pancakes, cool and refrigerate. The pancakes can be used for snacks later. One idea is to spread peanut butter and jam on top for a tasty snack. Although not quite the same as bread, try using pancakes for making sandwiches if you run out of bread before reaching a port to buy provisions.

Eggs can be boiled, poached, or hard boiled. For scrambled eggs, use a double boiler to keep pancakes warm (heat water in the bottom, place pancakes in the top pan, cover). The fry pan is then used to scramble the eggs.
