MINOT, N.D. (KXNET) — There are a few things that make for a successful day out on the lake. Sunshine, good company, and maybe even a few beers are perfect partners to an outing on the water — but perhaps the most important part of a boat day is the snacks. This week, Kyara is showing us how to make all of the best and most efficient boat snacks for all of your lake weekends ahead. These boat snacks are easy to make, pack, eat, and store on the water.

TACKLEBOX CHARCUTERIE

“You can get a tacklebox anywhere. I got mine at Walmart for less than $5. Load up all your snacks inside of it. It’s so convenient for the lake, the pool, camping, or any type of traveling. All of the snacks are in one spot, they are secured, and you can just throw the tacklebox in the cooler without having to worry about your food getting warm or smashed.”
