Carne Guisada for the Instant Pot brings a hardy dish that is perfect in cold weather as a stew. It is great for the summer for tacos or to use as a meaty sauce for enchiladas. What usually takes two to three hours in a Dutch oven takes about 35 minutes in the Instant Pot.

Gorgonzola Burger - Blue Cheese Burger's Cousin
These gorgonzola burgers are part of my series on Pub burgers. What may look like a lot of fat is Gorgonzola cheese. Gorgonzola cheese is very similar to blue cheese. However, it's a little lighter in flavor.

Garlic Studded Ham with Cherry Glaze in the Nesco
Garlic Studded Ham with Cherry Glaze in the Nesco is my take on the wonderful specialty ham studded with garlic with a peppery bite to it. If you have not had it, I encourage you to find it and have it. In the meantime, please make this and wow your family and friends. Once you have had this style of ham, you won't go back. Roasting it in a Nesco electric roaster makes it even easier without drying out.

This soup makes an excellent choice for Palm Sunday or Christmas Eve dinner if you want something pescatarian-based.
