I had 1.5lbs of fresh brussels sprouts to cook and thought I’d give my instant pot a other chance to shine. what a horrible idea. though in this recipe she warns about lessening cook time to accommodate more veggies (the recipe is for 1lb), she also said 2-3 minutes is a good range for 1lb. I thought doing 2 minutes would be just fine. I was wrong. basically made mashed sprouts. I don’t know if I had more liquid on the veggies or something? I’m going to try this again but only with a steamer basket.god know why I didn’t think of that before this dinner debacle. I’ll tell you one thing, though – next test, I won’t be putting all my sprouts in the same basket.

I tried cutting this waffle recipe into a third since it was just me… and I must have fucked up. these tasted like baking powder which is pretty gross. I get that you need a leavening agent but c’mon. next time, I’m going to try whipping the egg whites for fluff and using less baking powder. to be continued.

I had a pack of chicken breast and a pack of chicken thighs with NO MOTIVATION to cook at all. I remembered I had some homemade ranch seasoning and figured all of these things together would make a great dish. originally I was going to bake them but I really didn’t want to deal with prepping chicken. enter our savior, the instant pot!

slapped it all together, turned on the pressure cooker, then had the MOST EXTREME NEED TO PEE that I’ve ever remembered having. so weird. anyway it’s cooking right now and I’m sure it’ll be legit.
