I’m not sure where to even *start* with this thing. I guess I will start with “If you’re on the fence about it, stop reading and just go buy it right now”. Otherwise…read on. I purchased my instant pot in March of 2017. Since that time I’ve used it on
Artisan Bread Using the King Arthur Flour Recipe
I have made many “artisan” doughs over the last several years, and while they’re all pretty good (and fun to try new ones) the one I’ve had the most consistency with is the recipe from the King Arthur Flour website. While it’s not nearly as wet as some of the
Semi-healthy Stuffed Mushrooms
I was looking for a lower-fat version of a favorite appetizer, stuffed mushrooms. Mushrooms are so good for you, low in calories, high in fiber and with a wide variety of vitamins and minerals. And they grow in the dark, which almost seems like magic! Also, they’re delicious. In this
Italian Shredded Beef Sandwiches
This is a fast weeknight meal that comes together very quickly using a pressure cooker. If you do not have a pressure cooker, you can use a slow cooker as well…of course that would require planning ahead. The total time for this is about an hour and a half but
Pressure Cooking
I’ve talked to many people who are afraid to use a pressure cooker. It seems there are many stories out there of pressure cookers exploding while cooking, generally from our grandmother’s era. And I admit myself that I had my pressure cooker in the box for several years after I got it

On savory jello dishes…
Look I lived through the ’70s. I mostly remember it…but there’s one thing I JUST don’t get: savory Jell-o salads. Maybe it’s because it was mostly phased out by the time I was a kid? Maybe it’s because my parents were hippie health freaks who wouldn’t even let us have
Homemade Mayonnaise
I’ve always wanted to make mayonnaise from scratch, because I had heard it was much better than store purchased mayonnaise, so I decided to give it a try. Now the first thing about mayonnaise is that of course it’s made with raw eggs, which does have some degree of risk
Immersion blender
One of the most useful tools in my kitchen…I actually have 2, in case one of them dies. The immersion blender. Sometimes referred to as a “stick blender”. Why do you need one? I use mine often for many things. Here are some that I can think of: Saving sauces
The easiest way to make corn on the cob-EVER.
This isn’t really a recipe. I mean the recipe is throw the corn on the cob in the oven. Whole. Bake at 350 for about half an hour to 40 minutes. It’s going to look like this…and yes you leave the silk on. That’s what makes this easy. After you
