    Chicken Stew and Drop Biscuit Dumplings

    December 31, 2020 / 3 Comments

    Chicken stew and drop biscuit dumplings is the perfect wintry warm-you-up meal. It’s snowed (well, flurried, really) a few times so far this season — not a lot, but enough to make things feel cozy and wintry. When winter finally sets in somewhere mid-January, I love lazy Saturdays and Sundays when we can relax and eat hearty comfort food. And, I find this is most often satisfied by something slowly simmering in a slow cooker or on the stove all day in my dutch oven, with wafts of deep, savory smells permeating the house. Something like a stew or soup. Growing up, my grandmother always made chicken and dumplings in…

    Instant Pot Shrimp and Chicken Jambalaya

    July 8, 2018 / 2 Comments

    This shrimp and chicken jambalaya made in an Instant Pot is a simple and unique take on the traditional, melt-in-your-mouth savory stew.  Having realized a bag of frozen raw shrimp in my freezer, along with a package of boneless, skinless chicken thighs nearing expiration in the fridge and some leftover steamed rice, I felt it was my duty to create a Chopped-style dinner last week. It was a weeknight, so in addition to having fun with a random assortment of ingredients, I was also faced with the time crunch of “after work” cooking mania. This is where the Instant Pot can be so very handy. I decided on a jambalaya-style stew.…

    With crispy tofu glazed in a thick hoisin sauce, loads of veggies and noodles, and rich, creamy broth, this simple vegan ramen recipe from Chloe Flavor will be sure to have you wanting seconds! This post has been sponsored by Nasoya®. Last month I received a copy of Chloe Flavor, the latest cookbook from Chef Chloe Coscarelli, in collaboration with Nasoya (all the tofu recipes in her new cook book use Nasoya tofu). As you well know, I’m not a vegetarian, but I have friends and family who are and we enjoy meatless recipes here from time-to-time, too. When the cook book arrived, it came with a challenge: choose a…

    Instant Pot White Chicken Chili

    February 18, 2018 / 2 Comments

    This Instant Pot white chicken chili is so simple to make and full of mouth-watering layers of flavor! I’ve been on the lookout for an awesome white chicken chili recipe for some time now (years even!) and it wasn’t until earlier this year when I finally stumbled upon a winner. My book club came together to prep meals for one of the members in anticipation of of her second baby’s birth, and a recipe she selected as a family favorite was for white chicken chili.

    This simple chicken and lentil soup made right in your Instant Pot is a hearty meal that’ll warm you to the bone! As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been on an Instant Pot kick lately. It’s been fun to play around with ingredients I’ve had in the fridge and pantry, particularly when they can create a hearty and simple soup. It’s the perfect kind of comfort food for fall and winter (or, honestly, any time of the year)! Chicken and Lentil Soup in the Instant Pot To get started, I coated three boneless skinless chicken thighs with salt, pepper and turmeric, and then I seared them in olive oil in my Instant Pot set…

    September 19, 2017 / 8 Comments

    This crumbled Italian sausage soup is easy to make, thanks to the Instant Pot, and so satisfying — especially when you have a crazy week with a busy schedule! It was one of “those” days last week. The kind that feels a bit like a whirlwind, unseasonably chilly (not to mention drizzly) and also requires a quick turnaround for dinner. It was also very close to grocery shopping day, which means the options in fridge and pantry were limited. This is when I go into Chopped mode.

    Instant Pot Beef Vegetable Soup

    May 6, 2017 / 0 Comments

    This savory Instant Pot beef vegetable soup is so simple to make! You’d think by the number of recent Instant Pot recipes that I’ve become a little obsessed with the thing. The truth is, I haven’t reached obsession-level yet, but I have found it to be way more useful than I thought it would — even without having used some of the settings yet (um…homemade yogurt, anyone?). I’d say I use the Instant Pot on a weekly basis these days, for everything from chili to stew to soup to stock. That’s even more frequent than I used my slow cooker or my Dutch oven. I’d say it’s because the cooking time is cut down so much; but,…
