Instant Pot Quick and Easy Foods

When I want to eat something quick and wholesome, I can put just about anything around the house in my Instantpot and have something to snack on in a couple of minutes. I love that I can even put frozen food into my Instantpot, so I don't have to worry about thawing it out. I usually forget to sit the food in the fridge to thaw, anyway. I keep ground turkey around, because it's so flexible (I can make several different meals with it). Ground turkey keeps well in the freezer, too. So, when I buy my ground turkey, I can put in the freezer in a plastic bag, and then I can put about a pound of it in my Instantpot and cook for about 20 minutes, and it will be ready. I can use it for burritos, as a topping for nachos, or for tacos.

These days, I cook my fresh turkey meat in my Instantpot and freeze the meat to be eaten later. I put it in small freezer bags into the portion size that I ant to eat. This saves time and it keeps me on track hen it comes to my dieting.

I like boiled eggs, although I don't eat them every day. I might pop a couple of eggs in the Instantpot on the trivet, which came with my pot. I add a little water in the pot, set it to cook for 10 minutes, and after making sure that I've closed the vent on the Instantpot, I'm good to go.

In about 10 minute, I'll have hard boiled eggs that are easy to eat and perfect, with a creamy yolk. I hate hard boiled eggs with yolks that are not fully cooked, so I always let them boil for about 10 minutes. Sometimes, if I'm busy, I'll like the steam release naturally from the Instantpot. Most of the time, I'm in a hurry to eat, so I quick release the steam and chow down. The boiled eggs are great for those days when I'm running late, and I don't have time to cook my usual breakfast. I'm still loving my Instantpot.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
