    Recipes Cookbook - Amazing Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes

    Amazing Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes | #Instantpotmashedpotatoes #Instantpotrecipeshealthyfamily #Instantpotsweetcorn #Instapotrecipes #Cornoncobinstantpot #Instantpotpressurecooker #Instantpotchickenburritobowl #Pulledporkinstantpot #Instapotporkroast #Porkroastcrockpotrecipes #Instantpotrecipeseasy #Instapotpulledpork

    Ingredients

    • 4 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes (see note about type of potatoes)
    • 2 teaspoons coarse, kosher salt
    • 1 cup milk, preferably not skim
    • 4 tablespoons butter, cut into tablespoon-size pieces
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 cup sour cream

    Instructions

    1. Add the potatoes and salt to the Instant Pot insert (6-quart). Add cold water to cover the potatoes by an inch or so. Don't exceed the max fill line.
    2. Secure the lid on the Instant Pot, making sure the valve is set to "seal" and not "vent."
    3. Select Manual and then dial up or down to 8 minutes. The IP will start on its own.
    4. While the potatoes cook, warm the milk, butter and garlic powder in a saucepan or microwave-safe container until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm.
    5. When the potatoes are done cooking, quick release the pressure. If liquid bubbles and spurts from the valve, cover loosely with a damp dishcloth while the pressure releases.
    6. Drain the potatoes in a colander over the sink, discarding the cooking liquid.
    7. Return the potatoes to the insert of the Instant Pot and coarsely mash.
    8. Add the 2/3 of the butter/milk mixture along with the sour cream, and mash until the potatoes are the desired texture, as smooth or as chunky as you like, adding more of the remaining milk/butter mixture if you want creamier, less stiff mashed potatoes (I usually add it all).
    9. Add salt and pepper to taste.
    10. Serve immediately OR return the insert to the Instant Pot, secure the lid, and select Keep Warm. The potatoes can stay on this setting for up to three hours.
    11. When ready to serve, give the potatoes a good stir and a drizzle of warm milk, if needed.

    Recipes Cookbook - Lemon Blueberry Bread

    Lemon Blueberry Bread | #Lemon #Blueberry #Bread #Zucchinirecipes #Lemonblueberrybread #Snickerdoodlezucchinibread #Easyblueberryrecipes #Lemonblueberrycakeeasy #Dessertrecipes #Foodrecipes #Bestzucchinibread #Bestzucchinibreadrecipe #Zucchinibreadrecipesmoist #Lemonblueberrybread #Lemonblueberryloaf









    Ingredients

    • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 2 eggs
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 teaspoons fresh grated lemon zest
    • 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • 1/2 cup milk
    • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (I used fresh)
    • 1 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • Lemon glaze
    • 2 Tablespons butter, melted
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract






    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350*F and line a 9"x 5" loaf pan with parchment paper (or lightly grease with butter).
    2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt, and set aside.
    3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, blend together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice.  Mix until well combined.
    4. While slowly mixing, add flour mixture and milk in two batches (some flour, then some milk, then the rest of the flour and the rest of the milk).  Stop mixing as soon as it's just combined.
    5. Rinse off the blueberries (if using fresh) so they have just a bit of moisture on them, then, in a small bowl toss the blueberries and 1 T. flour.  This flour coating will help prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of your loaf while baking.
    6. Add the flour coated berries to the batter and gently but quickly stir, by hand, to combine.
    7. Immediately pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.  Cool bread in the pan for about 30 minutes, then move to a wire cooling rack with a baking sheet below (to catch the glaze you're about to add).
    8. Prepare glaze by simply whisking together the melted butter, powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla, then pour glaze over the loaf.  Allow to set a few minutes, then enjoy!

    Recipes Cookbook - Creamy Parmesan Orzo With Chicken And Asparagus


    #Greekorzosalad #Shrimprecipeseasy #Orzosaladrecipes #Shrimpandorzorecipes #Creamyparmesanorzowithchicken #Shrimpdinnerrecipes #Mongolianchickenrecipe #Chickenrecipesvideos #Cookingrecipesvideos #Foodrecipeshealthydinner #Foodvideos #Tastyvideosdinners




    Ingredients

    • 1 lb chicken breast, boneless and skinless (about 3)
    • 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
    • 1/2 tsp pepper, or to taste
    • 1 tbsp paprika
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 cup asparagus, chopped
    • 1 large onion, chopped
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 2 cups orzo, uncooked
    • 2 cups half and half
    • 3 cups chicken broth, low sodium, or water
    • 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
    • 2 tbsp parsley, chopped, for garnish

    Instructions

    1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper and paprika on both sides.
    2. In a large skillet heat the 2 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Depending on the thickness of your chicken you might need longer time. Transfer the chicken to a warm plate; set aside.
    3. In the same skillet add the asparagus and saute for about 3 minutes, just until it starts to soften and starts to brown a bit. Transfer to a plate; set aside.
    4. In the same skillet add the onion and garlic and saute for about 3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic becomes aromatic. Add more olive oil if needed.
    5. Add the orzo to the skillet and saute for just one minute, to get it a little toasted, this will give it a nutty flavor. Add the half and half, chicken broth and stir.
    6. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat down to a medium-low, cover with lid and let it cook for 10 minutes.
    7. Remove the lid and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper.
    8. Add the asparagus back and stir it in. Slice the chicken into thin slices. You can either add it to the skillet and stir it in, or as seen in the photos, arrange over the orzo.
    9. Garnish with more Parmesan cheese if preferred, and parsley. Serve warm.
