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.

This Skinny Tamale pie is my version of my Grandmother’s famous recipe from the 1950s. Everything you expect with half the calories. Enjoy it with a salad and a glass of ice-cold beer.
You may remember that when I visited my cousin in South Carolina, part of the reason I did that was to get some of my grandmother’s recipes. I made both her Lemon Jello Cake and her tamale pie when I was there.
How to Preserve Avocado and Make Guacamole Correctly
How to preserve an avocado. Most of the recipes on the internet for guacamole are dead wrong because they include lime to prevent the avocado from browning. Today I’m going to show you what should be in it and how to store it properly. In her definitive cookbook, The Cuisines of Mexico, Dianne Kennedy’s canonical recipe for guacamole does NOT include lime. Guacamole is supposed to taste like buttery avocados, not lime.
Black Bean Tostadas with all the Fixings
These black bean tostadas can make a great appetizer on small tortillas, or make a spread for a whole meal. We like them for a light meal in the heat of summer. You can add meat if you want.
You might have seen my post back from 2011 when I used canned black beans to make this tostada. Well, now that the Instant Pot is available, you can make your own beans in under an hour with the flavorings you want, and none of the stuff you don’t want.
