The last time I was at the Farmer’s market I grabbed a butternut squash and wasn’t sure what to make with it. I was in the mood for soup and found a recipe for one made in the Instant Pot. Even better, this recipe is dairy-free so I could eat it without feeling horrible afterwards.… Continue reading Instant Pot Butternut Squash Soup
I was in the mood to do some baking and wanted to use up what I had in my house. I had bought some apples at the grocery store the other week and it was a mistake. They weren't crisp and a little mealy....so not great for eating. I decided I would use them to… Continue reading Apple Crisp Bars
My son loves lasagna, but it's one of those recipes that I save for a weekend to make because it can be time-consuming. This soup satisfied his "need" for lasagna and a bonus was that it made enough for leftovers for lunch and dinner. It's a simple soup to make and allowing the sauce to… Continue reading Slow Cooker Lasagna Tortellini Soup

Triple chocolate cheesecake. Do I need to say anything more? I was nervous to try making a cheesecake in my IP again as the last time I made one, I accidentally dropped it and made it again. I didn't want that to happen again, so I was super careful ... and as you can see,… Continue reading Instant Pot Triple Chocolate Cheesecake
My kids love s'mores and are always asking to have a fire pit. The weather has not cooperated, it's rained, rained and rained most of the summer. Needless to say, there have been no s'mores making at our house. I wanted to make something that would give the feeling of eating s'mores but without the… Continue reading S’mores Bread Pudding
