NEW: Instant Pot Red Lentil Soup With Herbs
|
Hi Reader, When it comes to the Instant Pot, I have a strong preference for really, REALLY easy recipes. Because if I'm going to spend time on a multi-step recipe, babysitting a pot, I feel like I might as well just cook it on the stove, you know? 🤷🏻♀️ I mean, I'm aware that there are other benefits to pressure cooking, but... I think my bias has something to do with the marketing promises of appliances like the Instant Pot. They made me think I could be lazy and food would still turn out amazing. 😂 So I am, and it does! Since the pressure cooker is so great at enhancing flavors, we can actually get away with minimal steps and ingredients. So today I present to you a very simple—yet flavorful—red lentil soup! It's seasoned with dried tarragon, thyme, and a touch of lemon. All you need are 10 minutes for prep and 7 ingredients (plus water, salt and pepper). 👍 Red Lentil Soup With Tarragon

It's kind of like macaroni salad but doesn't necessarily use elbow macaroni. And other than some white onion,...
Hi Reader, I have a new sweet treat to share with you today, plus a few recipes for Memorial Day Weekend and the unofficial start of summer. ☀️ First, Banana Mug Cake! It's fluffy, sweet, delicious, and works with a variety of different flours and sweeteners. Try it with whole wheat pastry flour or oat flour for a healthy-ish breakfast treat. Or use "regular" flour and sugar for a more straight-forward banana cake vibe if that's what you're craving. Basically, it's like banana cake and banana...
Hi Reader, I have a new dinner recipe for you today! The next time you're craving something comforting, nourishing, and really easy to throw together, give this a try: Beans and Greens with Gnocchi! It’s a one-pan wonder made with pillowy gnocchi and that classic "beans and greens" magic we all love. Dried Italian herbs and Calabrian chili paste bring tons of flavor—and though it doesn't need cheese on top, anytime I have an opportunity to whip up a batch of my pourable vegan mozzarella, you...
