This last week I stumbled across an old favorite dip I haven’t had in years and am incorporating it into the boating program going forward.

Green Onion Dip! It is great with chips, pretzels, carrots, celery and lots more.

I use a 16oz tub of Sour Cream with chives, and mix in one packet of powdered Green Onion Dip mix. Cheap and easy!

The dip mix is usually near the salad dressing in the grocery store. It takes 45 mins or so to thicken up after you mix it.

What is your favorite easy snack for the boat?

Package of Hidden Valley dry dressing mix, crushed red peppers and a little canola oil over plain salted saltine crackers. Toss in a tupper ware bin and let set over night. Not messy on a boat, simple and easy but habit forming.

Ice cold Fruit salad! We usually just grab the sandwiches from Campbell Cove though and throw them in the cooler because it’s easier.
Agreed. Partially frozen fresh fruit salad is the best. Also go with munchies snack mix, cheez its white cheddar, and Snyders honey mustard pretzels.

My first Carrera I installed a marine propane grill on the swim deck. I’d grill up brats at the raft ups and it always made a few people wish they weren’t eating bag food for sure. If I do a swim step on the cig I will ad one again for sure.

I know you are aware of Borns Best, but we had them boat wrap a couple sandwiches last week for the first time. They were excellent.

I have not had a Campbell Cove Sandwich in awhile, but it was at least as good from what I remember. And I didn’t have to do battle to get in and out of Campbell Cove :)

Poptart made a crab dip with mango, little green onion, cilantro, and some lime juice. Went good on tortilla chips.

Usually my credit card. I can't tell you how many times I bring stuff on the boat and we don't eat it.

We end up at the Springs or Pirate and eat there - something about sitting in the 100+ weather and eating / making a snack, doesn't mix well for me.

Unless as was mentioned - you count coors light. or bottled water.

I agree. I used to always buy and pack stuff. Never end up eating ...most I do now is throw a sandwich in and have that for lunch and I am good all day ...

Foil wrapped left over fish tacos heated when left on the top of the Bimini work out pretty well. That is, at least when you're stopped.
