Instant Pot Chugwater Chili

Instant Pot Chugwater Chili


Chili is a favorite of ours in the winter time.  It is a great comforting food that is best when cooked all day, and even better on the next day.  I knew the Instant Pot could help us get all the flavors combined in a shorter amount of time. 


A great thing about chili is it doesn't take many ingredients to make this hearty soup.  We used local beef and stewed tomatoes from our garden. 

Instant Pot Chili, Chasing Saturdays, easy meal

I browned two pounds of hamburger in the Instant Pot with one chopped onion.  I used the Brown button to brown the meat in the Instant Pot.  This option makes clean up even easier! 



I used 2 quarts of our stewed tomatoes we canned this summer. Two quarts of stewed tomatoes equals 8 cups.  Use tomato juice if you prefer.  We like thick chili.

Fresh Thyme Farmer's Market

Fresh Thyme Farmer's Market


We visited the new Fresh Thyme Farmer's Market in Lafayette for the first time over the weekend.  I was on a quest to find Sweet Leaf drops. They have some flavors I like to add to my water, since I drink from 3/4 - a gallon of water a day. We already had a full day of softball and baseball clinics, shopping, and dinner.  Remember late night trips to Wal-Mart when you were in college?  You arrive tired, a bit out of sorts, and everything in the store appears funny to you? That is what happened.
Ryan takes his job of selecting my Honey Crisp Apples very seriously! The apples were not any cheaper than our local grocery store, but they were a very nice size.

 

Macie likes to play "I work here" when we are in stores. She is weighing oranges, because weighing oranges is an important job!

 

 I like to add variety of lettuce, cabbage and spinach in my salads, their selection took it to a completely new level!

I was very surprised to see an isle completely dedicated to snacks, chocolates, and gummy worms in here.  I was under the impression this was a "healthy" grocery store.
