Instant Pot Lasagna Soup

Toss it in and go, this recipe comes together quickly with little hands on time. Robust tomato broth, veggies, noodles and gooey cheese is just what your family needs for the weeknight dinner rush. Bring on the soup weather.

A funny thing happens in Miami during the fall, aside from it officially becoming soup weather. Almost overnight, our hot and humid climate drops. Little by little, we reach a cool and crisp (wait for it) 72. Oh yes, and as that temperature drops slightly, it’s pretty easy to tell the locals from visitors. I kid you not; every local will break out all pairs of boots, wool coats, and sweaters they own. It’s my favorite time of year. I have boots to wear, people, and I can’t do it in 80-degree weather!

Vegetarian Skillet Enchiladas

The perfect mid-week dinner to please the whole family.

Before we jump right into our Vegetarian Skillet Enchiladas, let’s talk about the elephant in the room. That one thing in the kitchen that we will avoid at all costs. For us, it’s doing the dishes. Seriously now, why is it that dinner not only has to be planned, prepped, and cooked but THEN ALSO CLEANED??!! And how is it 2019 and there are only Robots to vacuum our floor?? But we digress.

Quick and Easy Vegetarian Chili

You wont miss the meat in this Vegetarian wonder.

We aren’t a vegetarian household, but we try to keep things heavy with those fresh veggies. Which, can be a little challenging at times with a vegetarian, a meat lover, a health nut, oh, it all has to be gluten-free. A tear-free table is a happy table, so we try our best to accommodate all the tummies in our family, without adding extra work for ourselves.

Eggplant Parmesan

Eggplant Parmesan

The ultimate comfort food and entertaining classic.

Eggplant Parmesan is a fan favorite. Fact. From meat lovers to veggie lovers, this dish goes over well with everyone. You have the meaty, stick-to-your-bones, well-seasoned Eggplant, smothered in finger-licking sauce and ooey-gooey mozzarella cheese. It’s a combo too good to pass up, even by the little ones at the table, so you better put them into something that can stand up to stains as they stuff their sweet little faces.

Ever stared at the appetizer platter, trying to decide whether you should devour the cheese or hummus first? We can’t be the only ones! Now you can have the best of both worlds with this savory Gorgonzola Hummus.

Gorgonzola cheese is one of my all-time favorite cheeses. It’s savory, with a sharp and creamy goodness that pairs well with anything needing a little WOW. From wine tastings to fancy dinners, gorgonzola is your friend. I mean, have you ever tried it in pasta? If there’s a way to fit it into a meal, I will find it.

How to Make an Artichoke

How to Make an Artichoke

No longer a Restaurant-only mystery.

Growing up in California, artichokes were as common as potatoes on the dinner table, at least in my house. This might have had something to do with the fact that my great-grandmother had them sprouting up all over her backyard. I can remember the artichokes, growing like roses from the thick, hearty stems. We would boil them until they would bloom and dip them into golden bowls of melted butter, laced with salt and parmesan cheese. Good imagery, right? Now back to this spiky artichoke sitting in front of you.

Get your Lentil Stew on in 20 minutes or less.

Pressure cookers are excellent; in fact, I have 3: an Instant Pot, a Kuhn Rikon 6qt, and Kuhn Rikon 3.7qt. They’re efficient, easy to use and their recipes usually only involve one pot. Throw in some automation-like the Instant Pot, a tasty recipe (hellooooo Instant Pot Curried Lentil Stew), and you can have dinner on the table in no time at all.
