Guest blogger and Fidalgo YC member Linda Miller shares a day of cooking for Silly Goose adventures.
The recent snowstorm gave us the opportunity to use our new Mealthy Pot to create delicious meals in preparation for our trip to Alaska this year.

Here's what we made:

Instant Pot Jambalaya by Neena

Among the creations were Instant Pot Jambalaya by Neena. Recipe here.

A key ingredient for Neena's Jambalaya was the Cajun Seasoning by Penzeys Spices. It was delicious right out of the pot.

Dale used the Seal-A-Meal to save dinner size portions for the freezer for those long run days through B.C. and Alaska.

Swedish-Style Split Pea Soup

Next up was a double batch of Swedish-Style Split Pea Soup that simmered on the stove top.

Can’t have soup without bread, right? So, dashed to Jenny Can Cook.com and for Fastest No-Knead Bread.

Jenny Can Cook's Fastest No-Knead Bread

This No-Knead Bread recipe is in our club cookbook (page 179), but requires 12 hour rise time. By increasing the amount of instant yeast, we had this bread baked in two hours, start to finish.
(Jenny's 2-Hour No-Knead Bread.)

Another great discovery was using our Costco deep saucepan to bake the bread as our baker was on the boat. The bread came out perfect, light, crusty and delicious, though a little unshapely. The lighter pot was so much easier to haul in and out of the oven.

We’ve added chili, twice baked potatoes, spaghetti and Gumbo.

We found we could partially freeze dishes like chili and twice baked potatoes then seal a meal them to avoid having to use hard containers.

See you on the water!

I'd like to see another cooking/provisioning post.
I'd like to know more about your club.
I'd like to see your members' favorite places to cruise in the PNW.

Linda and Dale's post made me try to Jenny Can Cook's Fastest No-Knead Bread, which I halved and baked in a 2-quart cast-iron pot. It worked great. Fast (flour in the bowl to hot out of the oven in two hours!). Delicious. Just what I needed.

Dave Miller, Great article on the fuel leak. I have a 2010 NP 43 and have a similar leak. Would appreciate speaking with you and sharing thoughts on this and other NP items.

    About Us

    Fidalgo Yacht Club is best known as a cruising club, whose members share a passion for boats, the Pacific Northwest inland waterways, and a sense of comradery.  Safe boat handling is a priority.  Summer will find us on the water from Anacortes to SE Alaska.  Wintertime we gather together in our clubhouse to gather knowledge from dinner speakers and educational “bar chats”.   We cruise and learn together and welcome new members whether a seasoned mariner or first-time boater.

    A quarter of our membership has made the trek from Anacortes to SE Alaska, often multiple times. Half of us have cruised north of Cape Caution, and almost all of us have cruised the Broughtons. All these cruises were either solo or in small groups.
