I thought I'd start a thread for recipes we want to share. Feel free to post if it fits any specific diets and where you got it from, or if you made it up yourself

I've made this a few times now. Very good! I serve with mashed potatoes.

What a good idea! Are there any Instant Pot users? I have a few good recipes I can share...

Whole-wheat Apple Muffins

Can also be made dairy-free/lower calorie by substituting applesauce for butter and almond milk for buttermilk. Also, chopped walnuts are a great addition!

Yum!

I would love some Instant Pot recipes! I got one for Christmas but haven't used it yet.

Reposting this from NSV where I shared dressings:

Here are some of my favorites:

http://www.getoffyouracid.com/the-alkaline-super-salad/ .... Lemon vinaigrette. So easy and simple as it only has 3 ingredients!

Ginger-cilantro dressing (from The Elimination Diet Cookbook which I'm using right now) https://www.amazon.com/Elimination-Diet-Discover-Making-Tired/dp/1455581887

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp raw coconut vinegar
1 to 2 tsp of raw honey or maple syrup
1 (2 inch) piece of fresh ginger
1 to 2 garlic cloves (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
small handful of fresh cilantro

Toss it all into a blender and blend! It doesn't make a lot of dressing, but I put it on top of anything that needs a little extra flavor (grilled chicken or sautéed veggies or salad of course).


Creamy Ginger Dressing (From The Whole Life Nutrition Cookbook) https://www.amazon.com/Whole-Life-Nutrition-Cookbook-Planetary/dp/0979885906

1/3 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup chopped celery
3-4 tbsp chopped fresh ginger
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp brown rice vinegar or coconut vinegar
3 tbsp wheat-free tamari or coconut aminos
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp pure maple syrup
1/8 tsp ground white ginger

Heat skillet over medium-low heat and add sesame seeds to dry roast for a few minutes. Keep seeds moving in skillet to prevent burning. Remove from heat and place seeds and all other ingredients in a blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.

Goes great for cabbage like salads as it tends to be thicker. Great on veggies, chicken, etc. to add some added flavor.

This is one of my faves, and uses the Instant Pot: https://www.skinnytaste.com/instant-pot-chicken-tikka-masala-with-cauliflower-and-peas/

I also just made this and it was delicious and sooooo easy: https://www.skinnytaste.com/instant-pot-one-pot-spaghetti-with-meat-sauce/

I also use it to make quinoa, rice, and hard boiled eggs.

Here is a gumbo recipe: https://littlefamilyadventure.com/easy-gumbo-recipe-instant-pot/
I split it into 8 servings to lower the calories. It was very filling!

These stuffed peppers were really good and everyone in my office said they smelled amazing: http://www.cookinglight.com/recipes/instant-pot-turkey-stuffed-peppers

I have as a goal to try a new recipe each week ... so here is a list of what I have been trying lately:

Zucchini Cannelloni: I changed the recipe a bit ... for the filling I mixed ricotta and goat cheese + before I put together the cannelloni I grilled the zucchini a bit.

Cauliflower Mac & Cheese: for when we need comfort food ... was yummy!
https://www.ketoconnect.net/recipe/cauliflower-mac-cheese/

Cauliflower fried rice: since I had half cauliflower left and didnt want to waste it ... I added shrimp.
https://www.ketoconnect.net/recipe/cauliflower-fried-rice/

Lemon Chia Muffins: delicious and very lemony .. perfect for a snack since I made them in a mini muffin pan, so got like 36.
http://slimpalate.com/lemon-chia-seed-muffins-paleo-grain-free-gluten-free/

Fudgy Brownies: delicious, but I would suggest either to use less chocolate or just 70% if not is way too much chocolate ... perfect with ice cream, so maybe if you have halo top or similar would go great for a dessert. Also did them in a mini muffin pan so to not go overboard with the calories in each

This site has tons of delicious recipes that are vegan, allergen - free, etc + has some delicious cocktails too!!

Instapot people! Making hard boiled eggs is a snap! Each week, i will cool and peel a dozen to leave in the fridge for me and my adult family. Put them on the rack, add about 1.5 c water and cook (manual pressure for 6 min). Use quick pressure release and plunge them into cold water. They peel so easily! It’s so fast and easy - I often do this in the mornings before work. Then the eggs are ready for a quick, high protein snack or made into a sandwich/salad.
