Boat-Friendly Recipes

Cooking on a boat is different, but boat-friendly recipes make great meals not just possible but easy.

Yeah. Real meals from easy-to-find and easy-to-store ingredients, that you can make without electrical appliances in a tiny kitchen!

Mixed-Up Lasagna

Published on January 26, 2019; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Lasagna is delicious but doesn’t always fit well into a boat oven (or what if there’s no oven). This version can cook anywhere and is easy to eat on a moving boat!

Fish or Chicken Tacos

Published on January 18, 2019; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Fish tacos, Baja-style but more boat-friendly than the deep fried ones. Delicious low carb/keto (6g total carbs), gluten-free and dairy-free variations.

Low Carb Beef Marinade Recipe

Published on January 5, 2019; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Low carb beef marinade recipe with only 3g total carbs, but absolutely delicious on both meat and vegetables. Great for kabobs on the grill!

Keto Bean Salad

Published on December 15, 2018; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Bean salad that’s similar to 3-Bean Salad but safe for diabetics and those following a keto diet. Just 6g carbs per delicious serving!

White Chicken Chili

Published on December 8, 2018; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Great make-ahead recipe for a cool day — deliciously different chili that few people have had, but all love. Naturally gluten-free; includes a dairy-free variation.

Keto/LCHF Tuna Bruschetta

Published on December 1, 2018; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

This delicious way to prepare fish will please everyone. No one has to know that it’s low carb, keto, gluten-free and optionally dairy-free. They’ll just say “can I have more?”

Low-Carb/Keto Chili

Published on November 24, 2018; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

Chili is a cool weather staple and this version perfectly suits the needs of diabetics and those following a low-carb or keto way of eating. But everyone will love it!

Broccoli-Cauliflower Low-Carb Salad

Published on November 17, 2018; last updated on January 15, 2023 by Carolyn Shearlock

YUM! Fresh veggies, bacon and hard-boiled egg combine for a delicious low-carb salad. Perfect for diabetics or keto, yet something everyone will love!

Welcome

Carolyn Shearlock

Hi! I'm Carolyn Shearlock. My husband and I have been living on a boat and cruising over 17 years and 13,000 miles, first on a Tayana 37 monohull and then on a 34' Gemini catamaran. Along the way, we sold pretty much everything we owned (twice!), gained a great boat dog, had a bunch of wonderful times and some adventures . . . and learned a ton about what does and doesn't work!
