Instant Pot Jambalaya

I love jambalaya so I decided to figure out if I could make it easier or faster in the instant pot. It came out really, really good. I can’t wait to make this again.

What to do with leftover lamb?

I had a lot of left over lamb leg and since we didn’t really like it, I knew I needed to turn it into something more flavorful. Also, I love making my own pasta. So I put both things together and came out with a really delicious meal.

I used my instant pot to try to create a Lebanese lentil soup. This one could use some work, but it’s still delicious and my husband already wants more!

Chicken and Dumplings

I used my instant pot to try to recreate my grandma’s recipe for chicken and dumplings. I came close, but not quite there. Still delicious though.

SF Girl's Weekend

While Sami flew to PAX for Labor Day weekend, I headed to SF for a girl’s weekend. We went shopping, checked out the sights, attended the Zine Fest, and hung out in the traditional Japanese tea gardens. It was a great weekend overall with friends.
