Kid Friendly Instant Pot Recipe
I don’t know anyone that isn’t in love with potatoes. Potatoes and meat are most kids favorite covered in ketchup. Okay, the honest truth is adults love it this way too! 🙂 Right?? I am still loving my Instant Pot of course, and I hope you are too. They really do make like easier with a busy family. Summer time is especially the perfect time to have a Instant Pot. Summer is family time! You want to spend as much time out in the sun together, and don’t want to take precious time away from your family when it comes to preparing dinner.
I have come up with this simple and quick kid friendly Instant Pot recipe just the other night. It was the first time making it, and it was approved by my kids. My five year old said, ” Mom, I actually really like this! I wasn’t sure at first, but I’m loving it!” She is my picky eater. She’s that kids who if she see’s a little spec of black anything in her food, she freaks! Mom is that pepper!! I love finding recipes that she will eat seconds of.
I have a small little herb garden I am growing this summer. It has mint, chives, oregano, basil, parsley and cilantro in it. There is something about fresh herbs that makes every dish better. I took the opportunity to use my fresh herbs in this yummy recipe. I hope you enjoy this dish, and that it is a great comfort food for your family! Enjoy!
