If you're looking for an easy meal with a spicy kick, look no further than our Instant Pot Mexican Chicken Soup! With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, a lot of us have our heads in the clouds, eager for the excuse to eat extra Hispanic food and drink more tequila than normal this weekend.Just remember Cinco de Mayo is NOT a traditional Mexican holiday, so don't be surprised if your Hispanic friends roll their eyes a little at you.All of my friends know I'm addicted to Mexican food already and have a ton of respect for traditions and culture, so I just use the "holiday" as an excuse to indulge more freely and make fun recipes.
No one likes dry meat right? This Maple Ham recipe is guaranteed to be anything but dry!

Once I set the timer, it does all the work for me and I don't even have to think about dinner again until it's cooked!

With these hot summer days comes the inevitable: not wanting to cook. On days like this I prefer to have something colder to help keep my body cooler.

Some days I crave meat, sometimes I crave pizza. When both cravings kick in, then that is when true inspiration can occur. This is exactly what happened when I created this Meatzza recipe! I had some ground beef sitting in the fridge that I needed to use, so I figured I would use that as the crust and add some toppings.I have to say, if you are craving pizza and meat, then this definitely will hit the spot! The toppings I have in the recipe are what was in my fridge, you can add any toppings you want!The best part about this recipe is that it is gluten free, dairy free, and grain free. Yet, still absolutely delicious!
Let's be honest, when you eat chicken often, you start to get sick of the taste. If you are like me, you probably grew up eating chicken multiple times per week. Unfortunately, chicken does provide a nice amount of protein, so it is hard to give it up. That is why I tried to spice up the flavors to go with my chicken by adding in some sundried tomato balsamic vinegar!
