Instant Pot Crack Chicken Sandwiches
If you’ve been looking up recipes on Pinterest then you’re likely to have come across “Crack Chicken”. It pops up often on searches and lures you in with promises of a cheesy, chicken and bacon meal that’s as addictive as “crack”….hmm well ok I like the cheesy chicken part anyways…yummy! Recently several friends gave the Instant Pot version of this dish a try, but sadly and surprisingly might I add, all of them reported back that they were quite disappointed with the results. “Meh…blah… lacking flavour…a big watery mess!” Not so yummy after all.

They’re great because the mish mash of food that comes together is the furthest thing from a normal, healthy meal! And that is a break from the ordinary that we…

Instant Pot Garlic Chicken with Herbes de Provence
Here you go… Today I’m sharing this really great recipe for a delicious chicken that some of us were lucky enough to taste recently, from our friend Carol. It came from an official Instant Pot cookbook, purchased at Costco. And considering the success of this recipe it might just be worth purchasing. After all there are 99 more recipes in there that I’m now very curious about. Just a heads up on this meal, there’s a quite a bit of garlic and a lot of herbes de provence in the recipe. Please don’t get scared, like my daughter did when she saw all that garlic on the cutting board. 😜…
