Instant Pot Bone Broth
Easy bone broth in the instant pot. Freeze bones and veggie scraps until you have enough to make a batch.
Chicken Enchilada Casserole
This casserole is super easy if you have precooked chicken. I usually pair this with some heated up frozen cauli rice to absorb the sauce.
Spanish Cauli Rice
I’ve made this for a few people and everyone is always surprised it’s not actually rice. I’m not sure if they are being gracious, but I personally think it is a pretty good substitute.
Creamy Mushroom Sauce
This mushroom sauce goes well with pork chops or steak.
Blackberry Layered Cake
When I stumbled across wild blackberries on the side of the road on vacation, I was reminded of my childhood when we would go to my grandparents cabin, pick wild blackberries on the side of the road near the community pool, and to make this blackberry cake. This is light and airy cake, and best part for hot summer months when berries are in season: doesn’t require turning on the oven.
Christmas Crack Dip
Cream cheese, bacon, made better with pepper jelly and ritz crackers.
