Instant pot Lentil Soup

It’s finally Fall!! Which means it’s soups and stews weather and I could NOT be more excited!

This soup is a family favorite! And I’m happy to report Emma is obsessed with it and eats bowls at a time. It’s also a great budget friendly meal because the ingredients can be found in your kitchen at all times! Plus it’s so easy to whip together, especially on these cooler fall evenings when you want a warm and comforting homemade meal. Pair with a salad, some crackers, or just enjoy on its own! Hope y’all enjoy this recipe!

The two main players of this dish!

(This is the size of rice you want to use…short grain!)

Instant pot Gluten-free Ziti!

It’s Fall, y’all! Which means all the warm and comforting foods in my opinion. I grew up loving ziti but couldn’t find a good gluten-free alternative so I just made one and it is absolutely delicious! I hope you all enjoy it too! 

Gluten free pasta can be tricky so I decided to post my preferred ingredients & brands below!

Peanut Butter Granola

PEANUT BUTTER GRANOLA 

Spaghetti Squash Taco Bake

This is a great way to enjoy the taste of tacos with some added veggies & nutrients in the form of spaghetti squash! My toddler loves this veggie and it’s a great vegetable to add to your meals!

Egg Muffin

With school starting up again, this is the perfect breakfast to give your kiddos as you rush out the door. They are full of protein and veggies, and it’ll keep them much fuller and energized than a bowl of cereal! Hope you enjoy! ⁣⁣

Korean Beef

KOREAN BEEF BOWLS! ⁣

This is a gluten-free Asian beef recipe that will satisfy all your cravings! It’s absolutely delicious and so easy to whip up! ⁣

Cinnamon Spice Muffins (Paleo, gluten & grain free)

Spice muffins were one of my all-time favorite treats growing up, and I’m so glad I was able to re-create my mom’s recipe and make it gluten-free and grain free! Hope you enjoy!

Chicken, Broccoli, & Cheese Casserole

This is a dish that both my mom and mother-in-law have made since my husband and I were little kids. It is definitely on the heavier side, but it is delicious and so satisfying! The traditional recipe uses Campbell’s cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soups, but both of those contain gluten. I found an organic gluten-free brand at Sprouts and I’ve been so excited to make this recipe again!! It’s hands-down my husband’s favorite dish and I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do!

These are the soups I found at Sprouts and they were delicious!

Then lastly, add the shredded cheese on top!

Sweet Potato Hash

Who else is obsessed with sweet taters??!! I go through so many a week and usually just roast them. But this week, I decided to whip up a hash and it turned out SO GOOD! Here is the recipe!

Then, enjoy with your favorite meal! I served them up with some beef sausage patties for lunch, and then reheated them to have with breakfast the next day! They are a great meal prep option too to make in bulk for your week. I hope you guys enjoy this recipe and tag me in your creations (IG: @tveenverano.rd) if you make it so I can see!

Homemade Granola!

Since my daughter Emma got diagnosed with nut allergies almost a year ago, we have been very vigilant about avoiding nuts (except for almonds + peanuts which we have confirmed she is fine with)! 

But while so many foods on the market claim they don’t contain nuts, they are sometimes processed on similar equipment and can have nut fragments or particles from cross-contamination. We definitely don’t want to take any risks when it comes to Emma’s allergies, so I decided to make homemade granola this past week and it turned out delicious! Here is the recipe!
