Instant Pot Mashed potatoes and Our Favorite Corn

Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes



Ingredients:
3lb potatoes, peeled and cut into thirds
1 stick salted butter
salt 
milk


After potatoes are peeled place them into the Instant Pot on the trivet. 
Add 2 cups of water.
Cook on Manual for 8 minutes.
Rapid release pressure.
Strain potatoes.
Place the stick of butter into the Instant Pot.
Add the potatoes back into the Instant Pot.
Using an electric mixer or hand masher, mash potatoes.
add salt and milk to taste. 


According to my family these potatoes are better than any potatoes we've ever boiled on the stove top and they are so simple!


And here's a little bonus...Its not air fried or from the instant pot...It's from the MICROWAVE!

My family absoutely loves this corn. 
I cook 2 packages exactly as the package directs (5 minutes per bag in our microwave but it varies by the wattage of your microwave)
Add 1 stick salted butter
salt to taste 
and 1 tablespoon of sugar. 


This blog is a little more simple than I usually post but these are 2 staples in our household so I wanted to share.

 Thanks,

 I’m back!  You may have noticed I have taken a few years off from blogging. Life was BUSY! In my free time I’ve discovered I have a LOVE for meal planning. I am planning to share that love with y’all. I’ll be sharing recipes, weekly meal plans, monthly meal plans, and my tips or tricks that I have learned along the way. You'll notice my kiddos have grown up on me. They are so busy, so most of my meals will be targeted for the busy family. Stay tuned for more! -Keshia

Breakfast Prepping

Image
  I am going to start by saying HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!! Thank you so much to those that gave the ultimate sacrifice so that we can be free!!! I try to prep some breakfast sandwiches weekly so the hubs has something to eat when he gets up at 4 am for work...so I can keep sleeping. Recently I made some homemade mcgriddle sandwiches. I made mini panckaes and drizzled some maple syrup in the mix. Cooked up some bacon and eggs and assembled sandwiches and put them in the fridge so they are easy to grab and microwave of a morning. However we found out that recipe was a sticky mess if he tried to eat them on the way out the door.  So, today I made biscuits and gravy for breakfast and purposely cooked about a dozen extra biscuits. I love these Grands biscuits. Cook them per the package directions and when they are done, drizzle melted butter over them.  This week I used premade sausage patties. I placed 1 frozen patty on each biscuit I had cut in half.  I added a slice of Kraf...

Meal Planning

"What's for dinner?" "What are we eating tonight?" EVERY DAY my husband and kids would ask these questions. And for a long time my answer was the same..."I have no idea we will figure it out later". Until, I fell in LOVE with meal planning. Now I can tell you what we are going to be eating any night of the week, for the next month. I thought I would use this blog to share some meal planning ideas with you. So, here it goes...Are you a weekly planner, Monthly planner, or fly by the seat of your pants type of person? I plan monthly. I start with a blank calendar. Fill in the activities we have going on so I know what nights we need "easy" meals. I try to plan a Mexican type meal on Tuesdays. We love breakfast for dinner, so usually one night of that too.  I am going to list our meal ideas. Comment and let me know what you want to see me blog the recipes for =)  Breakfast for Dinner French Toast Biscuits and Gravy Cereal Pancakes Waffl...
