Welcome to a week at Lake Powell with our adult children.
(This gigantic flamingo joined us this summer - from Sam's Club.)
Every summer we spend several weeks houseboating
at Lake Powell, and a few years ago I decided to
share our menus for others who wanted inspiration
on what fun foods they could whip up.
These posts have been one of my popular posts,
and I hope people have taken their food options
up a notch or two by this inspiration.
Everyone takes a day and decides on their
menu, purchases their food, and prepares and
cleans up. This takes a lot of burden off of
me, and we get a lot of fun variety, as people
choose something new and exciting to share,
or an old favorite.
Bajio Shrimp Tacos (copycat recipe)
Chicken and Bacon Alfredo Gnocchi
Wedge Salads
Burgers and Deep Fried Pickles
Chicken and Beef Tacos
Korean Beef Bulgogi with Deep Fried Potstickers
Peanut Butter Balls
Ham, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Sandwiches
Smoothie Bowls for Breakfast
Raspberry Meringues with Sorbets and Passion Fruit Sauce
Needless to say, I have to do a little cutting back
when we return home, but we always have
a lot of fun with food besides fun with boating
and swimming.
Obviously cooking on a houseboat with full
kitchens, freezers, large and small appliances
and a grill make creating anything possible! It
is not the same as cooking while camping or
glamping.
We have a couple more trips planned, and there should
be a lot more great food.
I promise I will post the recipes for the Alfredo Gnocchi
and Meringue Desserts, which were recipes I made.
Until then, enjoy summer! It is almost half over - sigh!
Fabulous menu, and you are so organized! Thanks for sharing, and enjoy the rest of the summer. xo
