Instant Pot Chicken + Lime Soup with Rice
Time for a delicious new recipe…. And it’s just gotta be soup! This cold snap we’ve been enduring, along with its generous dumping of the beautiful but dreaded white stuff has me craving comfort food. No Surprise. When the weather is screeching winter at me and I’d rather stay in bed, soup is the one dish that I don’t mind making the effort for. This one is fantastic. It’s actually a meal in a bowl, which right there is a winner in my books. You really don’t need to serve anything else with this. It’s got enough going on that it will leave your belly feeling happy and satisfied. And…

Instant Pot Curried Butternut Squash + Lentil Soup {plant based/vegan friendly}
After years and years of cooking for the family, it’s absolutely fantastic when your kids are finally capable of preparing a great tasting dish or dessert all on their own. You know, one that’s actually edible. Not the ones you swooned over, then quickly and secretly spat out into a napkin first chance you had. LOL Yup, parenthood is a never ending rollercoaster of memorable moments like those. Thankfully the girls are all grown up and know their way around the kitchen now. My daughter Christina recently cooked up a fantastic soup and brought some over for me to try. It was so good! I really enjoyed it and immediately…

Instant Pot Shredded Chicken Tacos
We love taco night over here! It makes for a great family meal because each person gets to build their own tacos with whatever toppings they love best. And that makes everyone happy…even the picky ones. In the past ground beef was our go-to taco filling. We made them just about every week and the girls looked forward to them. But now everyone’s all grown up, and it’s usually just 3 of us having dinner together. And, we’ve really cut back on the beef eating these days, so I needed to come up with a good chicken alternative. I found one… Shredded chicken tacos for the win! As always, when…

Lemon + Thyme Instant Pot Chicken
Today I’m sharing a favourite family recipe that I’ve recently revamped for the Instant Pot. I really love the flavours of this dish. Lemon + thyme are a classic combo with chicken. The best part of this dish is the sauce! It’s not a cream sauce as you might expect, but it’s sooooo yummy! Serve this chicken over pasta or rice, or with a side of mashed potatoes so you have a great excuse to pour more of the sauce over your food. Trust me, you’re gonna wanna! Enjoy…stay safe…stay home! This surreal life we are all living shall pass. LEMON + THYME INSTANT POT CHICKEN

Greek Potatoes in the Instant Pot
Olive oil, lemon, garlic and oregano… In a Mediterranean kitchen these ingredients rule! And in Greece they turn a humble potato into a delicious side dish that pairs perfectly with chicken, meat or fish. Now, you could, of course, dump all the ingredients into a baking dish and cook this in your oven. It would take about an hour. Or you can let the Instant Pot work her magic and have these delicious potatoes on your dinner table in about 20 minutes, start to finish. I’ve been wanting to try making my Greek potato recipe in the IP for months. Why? Simply because the Instant Pot cooks potatoes perfectly. evenly.…

Instant Pot Cabbage + Potato + Cheddar Soup
Time for a new season…Fall is just a couple days away…whether you’re ready or not. This girl is not complaining though. I’ve had a fantastic summer, with lots of travelling and fun in the sea and sun. I am very grateful. And I happen to love Fall as a season anyways. It’s just that here, in southern Ontario anyways, Fall turns into winter in a flash…and that boys and girls is what I am dreading! The one thing I am looking forward to though, is…soups. I just love them. Today’s recipe is simple comfort food. Cabbage and potato is a classic soup combo but the addition of sharp cheddar makes…
