CAULIFLOWER RICE

For the past few weeks, I have been testing the idea of rice made of cauliflower and it’s uses in many dishes you would typically serve with rice. And I am OBSESSED! Can’t believe it took me so long to jump on this, especially since (as you may know) I love love love my cauliflower Alfredo sauce and used it in healthy mac and cheese and our beloved Fettuccine Alfredo pasta dish. This Cauliflower Rice is perfect in any Asian dish, topped with stir fry or served with grilled chicken and steamed broccoli.

INSTANT POT BAKED BEANS

Some of my favorite things to cook in my Instant Pot are bean dishes. I no longer buy canned beans because cooking them under pressure is so easy! Depending on the type of bean, in general, you can have a big batch of beans done in half an hour. My Instant Pot Black Beans cook in 25 minutes, the pinto beans for Instant Pot Refried Beans cook for 45 minutes. It’s just so easy! These baked beans cook in 33 minutes, for the perfect texture, and then simmer in the sweet sauce.
