This is my latest recipe. I have been crazy busy with my kids, so I have been really using my Instant Pot.
Now, I’m not a complicated gal. If you met me in real life, you would see that.
I’m working on a new title for my blog. But meanwhile, I’m a homeschool mom, that loves to cook.
I also have some VERY picky eaters in my house. So, my meals tend to be quick.
I would love to go back to the olden days, where I would cook all day and the kids would sit down and enjoy it. But, I don’t think I”m quite there yet!
Meanwhile, I have two Instant Pots, which I am having fun with!
Here is a directory of my Instant Pot Recipes and Articles.
I usually write one a day, so if you want to follow me, I’m at

Happy Eating!
