Low-Carb Chicken Egg Roll Bowl (Keto-Friendly)

February 25, 2018 Amanda Plott

Alright, so I've been playing around with this recipe for a few months now. I keep telling myself every time I make it, that I'm going to take the pictures and post it up here. But, for one reason or another, it just hasn't worked out until now!

One of the problems has honestly been that this egg roll bowl is just so good that it's hard to not be scarfing on it long before you ever even make it to the table. It literally tastes like the filling of an egg roll, and we all know that's the best part of the egg roll...

Keto Low-Carb Chicken Egg Foo Young

December 16, 2017 Amanda Plott

So... my power went out for over an hour this morning and I was really starting to go into panic mode. My chicken for this Egg Foo Young was sitting... par cooked in my pressure cooker for the whole time. Thankfully, it still turned out. I guess the pressure inside the pot kept it at a safe temperature until the power came back on and I could restart the cooking process.

Even with the flub-up with the power, these Egg Foo Young egg cakes turned out amazing. It's hard to say when or where the first time was that I had Egg Foo Young. All I know is that it's yummy delicious heavenly goodness in the form of an Asian flavor powerbomb of eggy and vegetable bliss...

So, with life being crazier than usual (or maybe it's really just the same amount of crazy), I decided to have a more simple sort of dinner today. Simple in a lot of ways. Simple to make. Simple to eat. Simple to enjoy.

I started out with some sirloin steaks and a head of broccoli and ended up with a pretty fabulous take-out fake-out meal that was quick, easy, and delicious. With keeping this simple, I thought that instead of having rice, I would rice my broccoli. Why not? I've made cauliflower rice before, and broccoli is pretty similar texturally. Plus, it goes so well with beef!...

Instant Pot Asian Sweet Chili Chicken

September 20, 2017 Amanda Plott

If you haven't yet jumped onto the pressure cooker band wagon, you definitely should as soon as you can! I got mine back for my birthday and I haven't looked back. One of the things that I love the most about it is that it's multi-functional as a pressure cooker, crock pot, and even for a quick sauté. This makes it the perfect 'one pot' meal maker.

For a few weeks now, I've been working on perfecting this Asian Sweet Chili Chicken recipe. The first time I made it - it was really good. But, it wasn't quite where I wanted it to be. So, with a few more tweaks I gave it another go or two until I had it on point...

Instant Pot Summer Vegetable & Chicken Curry

August 4, 2017 Amanda Plott

I've kind of completely and utterly fallen in love with my new pressure cooker, y'all. Before I got this baby, I was all about the slow cooker. But, now? Just toss it in the pressure cooker for a few minutes and you've got yourself a full on meal that would have taken HOURS in the slow cooker. And the best thing is, if you like a slow cooker - it can slow cook too! It's amazing for one pots too, like this curry right here.

Curry is another one of my favorite 'use up leftover' meals. No matter what veggies or meat you have on hand, you can most likely make a curry with it...

Instant Pot Ramen

So, I finally got a pressure cooker for my birthday this year! I've only wanted one for about 5 years now, hah. I've had so much fun playing around with it and learning how to use it. And I gotta say, I'm super impressed and can totally see what all the hype is about! So far, I've made a lot of really yummy stuff in it that would normally take me several hours to make in a slow cooker.

My little blonde mind is blown, y'all! How in the world does this contraption manage to cook things so quickly?!...
