Instant Pot® Garden Vegetable Soup
Who knew there were so many months and days to celebrate almost everything under the sun? April is also National Garden Month. And to celebrate that month, we have an Instant Pot® Garden Vegetable Soup. This flexible “clean out the refrigerator” recipe can be adapted countless ways to include whatever fresh vegetables and herbs you happen to have on hand. Tip: Tougher herbs, such as rosemary and thyme, can be added prior to cooking, while more tender options, such as basil and parsley, should be stirred in when the arugula is added. (Discard the woody stems for the tougher herbs before serving). Tip: Use vegetable broth to make it vegetarian.

If you are cooking out, you can make this dish ahead of time. It gives your guests another option and it one less thing you have to deal with. Enjoy! Equipment Needed

Instant Pot® Chicken Noodle Soup
I love January! It’s my birth month, and it’s National Soup Month. Soup is warm and filling and there are so many different tasty varieties. This recipe today is for a classic… Nothing beats a delicious bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup. Unfortunately, it can be a bit time-consuming to prepare from scratch with a chicken carcass. As a kid, we usually had the canned version of chicken soup — I think most of us did! Lots of salt! It seemed fine to my unrefined kiddie palate but now that I am an adult…not so much! Homemade soup is a different beast! It may seem daunting to some…but not with…

National Mushroom Month: Try Instant Pot® Rustic Mushroom Rice
I can’t believe that it is September already! This year has really flown (and many say Thankfully! to that) But hopefully, September will show us a little mercy. At least, it’s a busy month for Food themes! It’s National Mushroom Month and National Rice Month. There are many more themes for this month — several of which I will be discussing throughout the month. My first recipe for the month – Instant Pot® Rustic Mushroom Rice – incorporates both themes into one tasty recipe. Mushrooms were not a common ingredient in my childhood home. I have gotten a bit more adventurous as an adult but we definitely pick our spots.…
