Quote For The Day:



"Dennis and I, being from a family of devoutly religious eaters, committed not only to socially designated meals but also less traditional mealtimes like "it's already Taco Tuesday in Sweden," "tater tots are mood-enhancing potato pillows," and "cheese is the cure for boredom." - Kira Jane Buxton, Hollow Kingdom



Food For Thought:



My Chicken and Salad



I love chicken and I like to cook chicken in my InstaPot. It is a great cooking device. The chicken always turns our moist and falls off the bone.



I put my chicken in the pot, add balsamic vinegar, Italian dressing, seasoning, Italian seasoning, and then bake it in the pot for 1 hour. If it is frozen I cook it for 1 1/2 hours. The picture above has my chicken, Italian dressing, and ranch dressing with Frank's hot sauce. I like hot sauce with my chicken.



If you are trying a low-carb diet, this is a great recipe. There are no measurements in my chicken recipe. I add the ingredients intuitively.
