Instant Pot Veggie Bisque

March 26, 2020 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Hello friends! Let me brighten your day a little bit with a delicious, smooth, super healthy soup that is PACKED full of veggies. The flavor in this soup is complex and deep - you'd never guess it was just a mix of veggies that our Instant Pot has worked some major magic on! The weather has actually been super warm here lately, but yesterday and today have been 50s and rainy, and it's making ...

Loaded Vegetable and Barley Soup

March 5, 2020 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Loaded Vegetable Barley Soup - This hearty vegetable soup is filling and satisfying, but so healthy and easy to make! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Soup season is almost over, people! I have mixed feelings about this. I absolutely love fall and winter food - it is my fave. BUT - I prefer warm weather itself DEEPLY over cold weather. I am absolutely itching for it to be warm outside so we can go do alllllll the things. I've become so much more of an outside person since I've had kids because they love being outside SO much. It makes me ...

December 31, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

This 25 Minute Dump and Go Taco Soup will revolutionize your healthy and CRAZY simple weeknight dinner game! It seriously doesn’t get any easier than this, and it’s so yummy! TheGarlicDiaries.com

WOW - it has been a while, internet fam. Since the week before Thanksgiving, I have posted one recipe on the blog! Between family being here for Thanksgiving and Christmas (which was time I intended to take off work), the weeks in between were a giant blur of sickness and lots of sleep-hating babies. Well, just one in particular 🙂. I wasn't planning on ghosting the blog for an entire month, ...

Caprese Stuffed Avocado Cups with Balsamic Reduction (Keto)

April 19, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Well this is literally my obsession above all else. I eat it for lunch at least half the days of the week, and when I'm not eating it, I'm missing it. It is creamy and rich from the avocado, cheesy, smooth, and delicious from the fresh mozzarella cheese, bright and acidic from the tomatoes + the vinaigrette, and slightly sweet from the balsamic reduction. It hits every taste bud in your WHOLE ...

World’s Easiest Instant Pot Frozen Shrimp

March 27, 2019 by Annie Chesson 83 Comments

First things first, I need everyone to drop everything they are doing and focus on only this for the next ten minutes, because it is absolutely mandatory that you understand the magic of this shrimp. This is my favorite new recipe, and I have made it twice within one week (and have another bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer to make it again)! It. Is. Revolutionary. Reasons: It no joke takes ...

Fresh Tomato Pasta

September 26, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

WHEW - alright people, we are settled back at home in Kansas after a 3 + week long trip to North Carolina. Seth had a 3 week training in Georgia, and we have tons of family and friends in North Carolina just a few states away (almost said one state and then checked myself and looked at a US map...Lord please never let me teach geography), so Ford and I decided to tag along and hang out in North ...

Instant Pot Mexican Chicken Stew

August 15, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

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 Italian Beef

June 25, 2018 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

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 ...

Summer Fresh Corn and Zucchini Chowder

June 11, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Alright, year-round soup lovers, this one's for you! The only thing "wintery" about this soup is the fact that it's soup...everything else screams summery goodness! The super fresh corn and zucchini particularly. The sweet pop of that fresh corn...you can't beat it! Frozen corn is a great substitute in those cold months when fresh isn't available, but the difference between fresh corn and frozen ...
