Soo...on a scale of one to ten, how mad are you about me posting a stew recipe in the 100 degree August heat? I know this is a sin in some of your homes. Spring and summer are the months where your soup pots get put away, you put your right hand on the Bible, and you solemnly swear not to eat any comfort food until September at the earliest. If that's you, can we still be friends? Can you pop ...
Instant Pot Beef Ragu
Oh my gaasshhhhh, Instant Pot, you are just TOO DANG good to be true. A tough cut of meat that would normally take hours to become tender and juicy in the oven takes literally thirty minutes in the Instant Pot, it becomes fall apart tender, and it cooks into the sauce, leaving you with the most thick, unctuous, richly flavored ragu that you've ever encountered in YO LIFE. I'm telling you guys, ...
Juicy Instant Pot Mexican Chicken
Instant Pot meat and Crock Pot meat have never been my faves unless they are in a sauce. I've never had success with just doing straight up meat before, like these chicken breasts. But I was determined to find a way to do it successfully in the Instant Pot so that I could create a recipe for juicy chicken that could be used as a base in meals for the whole week! And we figured it out peeps. ...
Buttery, Cheesy Instant Pot Smashed Potatoes
Hello, beautiful. Look at all that cheese and butter smashed into those tender potatoes - it is intense and passionate love at first sight 😍. Come into my life and never leave me, buttery, cheesy Instant Pot smashed potatoes! But for real...PLEASE. These are not your average mashed potatoes. Regular mashed potatoes = creamy, fluffy, and smooth. They are a magical, delicious creation all on ...
Instant Pot Italian Beef
You guys. I have made tons of Instant Pot recipes since I got it as a Christmas gift this past year, but - let me tell you - this is by far the easiest. It literally requires no work...unless you call searing a piece of meat in the Instant Pot and then dumping two jars of Italian goodness on top "work," becaauussee I don't. It's a zero effort prep...craziness. The jar of pepperoncinis and ...
THE Ultimate Artichokes (Instant Pot + Grilled)
Oh...my goodness. I have peaked. It is impossible that it will ever get any better than this, so I might as well just quit blogging. It was nice meeting you and knowing you for 3+ years, byeeeee. Just kidding...but seriously...these are legitimately one of the most delicious things I've ever made or eaten. I was having a bit of an emotional experience while stuffing mass amounts of artichoke ...
Instant Pot Turkey Spaghetti
Hello, strangers! We are finally home and settled from our big East Coast adventure. Seth had two weeks of post-deployment leave, so we headed down to North Carolina to visit family and friends for a week, and then for our second week, we left Ford in North Carolina with Seth's parents and headed off on our own for another week. We left on a Friday, drove to Charleston and stayed there until ...
Instant Pot Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
But...comfort food 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼. How's the weather in your area? It's still FREEZING COLD HERE. In Kansas' defense, it is actually supposed to get super warm today...we'll see. But for the last billion years (potential slight exaggeration), it has been WINTER. So cold. Like...wait...it's April 11th. I feel like, if we're being totally fair, it should have started getting springy in March. YET - here we ...
Instant Pot Cheesy Turkey Taco Pasta
Okay! We are pressing play on the Instant Pot series that I had to interrupt with Whole 30 goodness. So put your Instant Pot pants back on again, because I've got this deliciousness plus a handful of others comin' your way! It definitely wasn't ideal to start my Instant Pot series and then cut it off in the middle but...#planningfail. My B. This delicious, and cheesy, might I add, turkey taco ...
Instant Pot Short Ribs
Ah, Instant Pot. So nice to see you again - it's been a while! I was very excited to be able to incorporate you into Whole 30. If I ate things like you every night, I could do Whole 30 on a permanent basis. **Switching to you, readers, instead of continuing to be creepy and address only the short ribs.** Short ribs were a first for me as of this month while doing Whole 30, and I am sad at the ...
