These recipes can all be fixed in an Instant Pot
I have to admit that sometimes I get lazy in the kitchen. I just don’t want to have to be in there for an hour preparing a meal. That is one of the main reasons why I love to have “throw and go” recipes ready for both my slow cooker and my Instant Pot. It keeps me from reaching for highly processed convenience foods. And it allows me…
I love cooking all kinds of beans in my Instant Pot! They are so easy to make and you get so much more for your money. You also don’t have to worry about unwanted additives or the high amounts of salt you find in canned beans. So black beans were a perfect choice to make in my Instant Pot! I love cooking the beans this way because then…
Dump and set recipes make eating healthy so much easier! And when you’re using either a slow cooker or an electric pressure cooker, it’s a no-brainer. I actually made this chicken taco soup on an evening when I needed something I could make quickly with little fuss. I had forgotten to thaw out meat, so I wasn’t sure what to fix for dinner. I had all of the…
I’m going to admit something to y’all. I had never really eaten chickpeas until recently. I’m a recent convert to hummus and chickpeas in various recipes. And I had truly taken for granted these little bundles of nutrition-packed joy. There are a few ways you can get chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans. You can get them canned, dry, and in flour form. Now, I’ve been cutting down…
It is a new year here in SC and the weather has been pretty cold the past week. We had a very warm start to the year so this was a nice change! I love every season, but I do love it when the weather is cooler. That’s because I LOVE soups and stews. I’m really funny about not wanting to eat them during the summer months. For…
Have you ever had a chicken wet burrito? This is one of my very favorite recipes ever! So yummy! When I moved down to South Carolina I discovered that most people here had never heard of a wet burrito. It just wasn’t a common food here. Of course, where I grew up in Michigan we had a couple of wonderful restaurants that served wet burritos. They were absolutely…
One of the best things about using an Instant Pot is that it is super easy to use. There can be a learning curve when you first start using it, especially with more complex recipes. But simple recipes like this are a breeze to cook! And they make life so simple. This vegetable frittata is a great Instant Pot recipe for beginners and experienced cooks alike! It doesn’t…
Electric pressure cookers like the Instant Pot have made life so much easier! Having the ability to set it and forget it, but to have food cook relatively quickly makes eating whole, real foods much more accessible. That’s important, especially if you are in the process of healing your body and still experience fatigue and brain fog! When you feel yucky, it can be so much more difficult…
I really love getting in the kitchen and creating new recipes like this Instant Pot sausage rice soup. I love using my creativity to make new dishes that inspire my tastebuds…and hopefully yours too! But I especially love helping people discover healthy, real food recipes. This helps them to live healthier lives. Food is one important part of keeping the body functioning the way it should. Simple, unprocessed…
I love quick, simple meals. The truth is, most people don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen cooking elaborate meals. Once in a while, that’s fine, but I don’t have time for that every day. So meals that are easy to prepare and healthy are good to have in the recipe box. This hamburger potato soup is so simple to make. And because it’s done in the…
