Chicken Noodle Soup



Chicken Noodle Soup



To Start out I Cooked a whole chicken in the Instant Pot.
If you wanted to skip this step to make it a little easier you could easily buy a rotisserie chicken.



Put one cup of water in the bottom.

Add chicken breast side up.

These are the spices I put on the chicken, you can basically use whatever and however much you'd like.


Then set the instant pot to 60 minutes and let natural release. 

Once the instant pot hits natural release start sautéing the carrots, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in pot.
Add Carrots - You can also add onions and celery at this time if you choose.

Add spices.

These are the spices I used on the carrots and in the soup.


Once chicken is done remove from instant pot and set on plate. 


shred chicken.
Once the carrots are sautéed, add chicken to pot.
Add noodles, broth, and spices, then stir. 
Bring to boil, then reduce to simmer for 20 minutes and you're done!



Ingredients:
  • 1 whole chicken - 4-5lbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1-2 cups carrots (I choose to emit onions and celery for health reasons but you can easily add those in!)
  • 1 bag 12 oz wide egg noodles
  • 4 cartons chicken broth
  • 1 can veggie broth
  • Salt

National Peanut Butter Day

In honor of National peanut butter day coming up this Sunday the 24th, I thought I would share my favorite  peanut butter recipes from the blog.  I don’t know about you, but I never need an excuse for peanut butter, BUT I do love using these National (insert whatever here) day as a fun way to celebrate some of my favorite things.  To start us off I’ll share my favorite first! This is a little generic and certainly not all about peanut butter but my favorite is definitely  Chocolate Nobake Cookies (with peanut butter of course).

Instant Pot Hamburger Helper

Instant Pot Hamburger Helper To get started you're going to turn your instant pot to the sauce feature. When it shows "Hot" on the display you're ready to add your olive oil and hamburger. Throw in all of your seasonings and brown the hamburger. Once its browned, add the noodles and more seasonings. Then add the two cans of beef broth and try to push all the ingredients down so there's not too much sitting on the surface. Then set the instant pot to cook for 8 minutes and do a quick release. Add in your milk, cheese, and party dip or sour cream if you have it. Turn it back onto sauté and stir everything together until it's melted. And serve! I don't know about you guys...but in our opinion you can't have hamburger helper without some bread and butter to go along with it😉. Ingredients: 1lb hamburger 8 oz elbow noodles 2 14 oz cans beef broth  1/2 - 1 cup milk  8 oz shredded ch...

Life update + some new projects

Lifish update I’ll do a full “anniversary post” in July but I’ve just had a lot of thoughts lately about life, crohns, everything. To be honest I’ve had a lot of confusion and even discouragement which is not normally me. I’m coming up on two years and while I’m no where near how I was two years ago (I mean that was pretty bad...😳) I’m also nowhere near where I thought I would be, I remember thinking that on the year anniversary too and I kind of think that feeling has just progressed since then😕. I’m no better than I was 8 months ago to be completely honest with you and in some ways may or worse? I am so so thankful to have a diagnosis and know what’s wrong with me, but with that I thought would come answers and healing. I’ve had some answers and some healing of course, but there’s still really a lot of unknown! In the beginning I used to talk about finding my “new normal” well I’m here to tell you 2 years later I still haven’t found it😂. Learning to navigate something new ...
