Instant Pot Lasagna Soup

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.

It’s amazing. Continue reading “Coffee (and Company Roast)”

Miami Winter (and Lentil Soup)

I know what you’re thinking: there is no “winter” in Miami. And yes, I admit, you’re kind of right, partially at least. If you’re comparing our mildly cool weather to say, that of New York, then our sad little excuse for winter is precisely that, laughably nonexistent. But here in Miami, land of the Tropics, anything below 72 degrees is cold. I kid you not if it’s 71.99 degrees out, we Miami locals will break out whatever jacket and boots we own. I hear you laughing over there in the North East-rightly so.
