The other day I was looking in my pantry when I saw Arborio rice. I also was thinking about other dishes for using my preserved lemons. Between them, they sparked an idea and I came up with the following recipe. It has a lovely lemony flavor that goes well with the peas. It makes a […]

Instant Pot Moroccan Style Chicken

When I posted about making preserved lemons, I got many comments wondering what I was going to do with the preserved lemons. With the preserved lemons being ready, I decided to make a Moroccan style chicken in my Instant Pot. I started out by making the recipe for the Moroccan spice blend (Ras el Hanout) […]

Instant Pot Southwestern Polenta

This recipe is my own invention. I was trying to figure out what to make for supper when I saw the polenta in the pantry at the RV. I also had tomatoes, roasted poblano peppers, lemons, and a bunch of cilantro. In the freezer, I had Costco Mexican Style Street Corn. This came together quickly […]

Instant Pot Key Wat (Ethiopian Beef Stew)

I started with a recipe on how to make Key Wat in the Instant Pot from SpiceCravings.com. Key Wat is a lovely rich and spicy stew and makes a fun change from traditional beef stew. While it is traditionally served on Injera bread, I find it is also delicious served over polenta or rice. Serves […]

Instant Pot Low FODMAP Arroz Con Pollo

Since Bruce now has to eat a low FODMAP diet, I am looking at recipes in a new way. The original recipe came from “The Essential Mexican Instant Pot Cookbook” by Deborah Schneider.

Apple Sauce Instant Pot Ribs

The ribs come out with a slight sweet and smoky taste. The apple sauce seems to prevent the ribs from drying out. Bruce really loves this recipe. Serves 6

Instant Pot and Air Fryer Lid Dry Rub Pork Ribs

I had a package of pork ribs in the fridge and I love making ribs in my Instant Pot. They are made quickly and are very tender. Bruce and I did a side by side comparison of cooking ribs in the oven wrapped in foil and cooked in the Instant Pot. The ribs cooked in […]
