An Odd but Delicious Friday Night Dinner

Odd but Delicious Friday Dinner

An Odd but Delicious Friday Night Dinner I was out and about yesterday afternoon, so I thought I would go ahead and get some ideas for our Friday night dinner.  I messaged Shawn to see if he wanted anything in particular. His response was he wasn’t all that hungry. Fast forward five minutes later and he threw out the suggestion of KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) bowls, but still said he wasn’t really hungry. Well, that was helpful! Hahaha! I generally make a copycat version of the KFC bowls instead of…

Banjo’s Thirsty Thursday

Thirsty Thursday Last Thursday was a “Thirsty Thursday” kind of day aboard Banjo.  I suppose Thirsty Thursday can take many forms.  This Thirsty Thursday’s line up was a bath, about 100 gallons of water, wine AND champagne. Bath Time We started out the day with a bath for Banjo.  Since we knew we were planning on filling the water tank Shawn jumped in the dink and gave Banjo girl a much-needed bath.  So fresh, so clean, so happy! 100 Gallons of Water Although Banjo was a fresh, clean, and happy…

Turkey Egg & Cheese Muffins

Egg Muffin

I love breakfast recipes that are quick and easy, yet hearty, and I think this recipe satisfies both of those. This is a simple, relatively healthy, and pretty dang tasty recipe for turkey, egg, and cheese muffins. It can also be customized to your liking which is an added bonus.  Who doesn’t love an added bonus? 😉  I think these would make a great boat passage meal too!   Ingredients 6 eggs ¼ cup milk 2 – 3 slices of sliced turkey or ham, diced 1 cup chopped baby spinach…

Quick & Easy Chicken Nachos

Chicken Nachos

Taco Tuesday We enjoy going to the Taco Tuesday gathering at Prohibition Drinks & Desserts here in New Bern every week.  It’s an evening full of delicious tacos, comradery among fellow boaters, lots of smiles and laughter, and maybe even a salty story or two.  My kind of Tuesday night for sure! Well, since we aren’t going this week (enter pouty faces here), I thought I would share a quick and easy Chicken Nachos recipe instead.  Wait a minute, scratch that!  We decided to go to Taco Tuesday tonight after all.  Yay!! …

A Rainy but Happy Monday at the Marina

Rainy Monday Morning

Happy Rainy Monday It’s a rainy, but happy Monday here at the marina.  The rain has set in again today, but the Banjo crew are troopers! The girls aren’t thrilled about the rain.  Luckily, they don’t have to be out in it too much today. Quick walks to do their business, then back to being lazy boat dogs. Thank you Captain for taking them out this morning! Have a great day everyone and stay dry!   Be sure to check out our other posts, or connect with us on Facebook,…

Pressure Cooker Chicken

Pressure Cooker Chicken

A Whole Chicken & A Pressure Cooker So, I ran across a sale on whole chickens a couple of weeks ago, and thought hmmmm I bet I can cook this in the pressure cooker.  Of course I researched several recipes, and came up with my own version of Pressure Cooker Chicken. Wow, did it turn out great! So tender and moist.  It will fall off the bone, and melt in your mouth! Definitely another pressure cooker recipe I will be adding to the list of favorites.  Served it with green…
