Roasted Chickpea Croutons – Not only are roasted chickpeas a great snack, but I love putting them in salads instead of croutons to add a little flavorful crunch! Roasted chickpeas, especially when seasoned right, can make for an amazing crouton replacement for salads. They are loaded with fiber and can be much “cleaner” than the common bread croutons. Plus you can season them in so many different ways to create new flavors.
These Soft Pretzel Bites with Spicy Mustard Dip are the perfect snack for tailgating. Soft, chewy and bite size with a golden crust, they’re perfect for dunking into a delicious spicy mustard dip that gets a wonderful boost from the addition of hot sauce and maple syrup.
This Valentine’s day treat your special Valentine to an easy to make sugar free Cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries and made in the instant pot! I used a sugar substitute to make it sugar-free, but this pressure cooker cheesecake recipe works wonderfully with real sugar.
This fresh mango salsa is perfect for entertaining – the juices from the ripe mango, tomatoes and lime just mingle together, make friends and create a burst of flavours in your mouth. Serve with salmon as a main course or with tortilla chips as an appetizer.
Use this fresh and delicious Zesty Lime Salad Dressing as a marinade for grilled chicken or seafood, or a dressing for your next salad. So Tasty!
These Instant Pot BBQ Brown Sugar Baked Beans may be one of the easiest recipes I’ve ever cooked. You literally just dump all of the ingredients into the Instant Pot and walk away. No fuss, no muss.

This Instant Pot Beef Casserole uses fresh and flavorful ingredients, which give it a lovely, refreshing quality. It’s hearty and filling, but the flavors of oregano and garlic add a lilting lightness to this dish. It mixes the classic flavors of ground beef, onion, and garlic, with oregano and rich sharp cheddar cheese. So make a dish of this comfort-food favorite, and in under 30 minutes you can settle in for a warm, delicious, family meal. For an easy weeknight dinner, you can even make this ahead and freeze it.
