This soup is a favorite of Miss Emily and since our local Chinese Food place is closed we decided to give it a try at home. We’re hoping they’ll be back up and running once they feel safe again. They made the decision to close while the Stay at Home orders were in place. I’m…

Instant Pot Macaroni and Cheese
I’ve been wanting to try IP mac and cheese for a while now. Who doesn’t love a good mac and cheese? It was crazy easy and so darn delicious that I know this is something that we’ll be making many times to come. I was one of those people that doubted that the Instant Pot…
Chicken Spaghetti in the Instant Pot
So… it was a weeknight that I knew I wanted to make chicken spaghetti but I didn’t want to have to babysit it on the stove or have to wait for water to boil. That’s one of the things I so love about the instant pot! You get it going and walk away. Let’s Get…
Hard Boiled Eggs in the Instant Pot
We’ve been eating more hard boiled eggs lately. I used to boil them on the stove top and then tried the oven method (take a look at that here), but I think the IP method will be the way that we use going forward. Someone at work recommended them this way as a way that…
Steaming Broccoli in the Instant Pot
One of the things I was excited about with the Instant Pot was the steamer and I haven’t used it nearly as much as I thought I would. On this particular day we were having Mongolian Beef from my freezer meal stash and I thought some steamed broccoli for me instead of rice would be…

The roots of this recipe is a stew but we made mashed potatoes rather than chopping up potatoes…
Crazy Easy Chicken Tacos in the Instant Pot

Refried Beans from the Instant Pot
Our daughter loves beans. She seriously loves them! I’ve been wanting to try them in the Instant Pot ever since I made Ham and Beans that turned out so good. Thanks for the recipe, Jacque! These are awesome! Let’s Get Crafty! Turn the IP to saute and throw in the pot for a couple minutes:…
Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup
The snow is falling this morning. That means… BOOM! We get another soup day. It feels like a bonus day because I was afraid soup season had ended. Chicken tortilla soup is probably one of my favorites because it has the mexican flavors that I love and you can so easily spice up individual bowls…
Instant Pot Egg Bites
Good Morning! For all my Instant Pot friends… we are in love with Egg Bites. My husband got me the mold for Christmas and we’ve been making them once or twice each week. They are great because they take just a couple minutes to get in the Egg Bite Pods and then they need no…
