By prepping for dinner and using a meal plan, you save time and money and reduce your stress. If you clean one thing towards a deep clean a week , your kitchen deep clean is a lot less work.
Meal plans are a plan, and plans can change, but you are a step ahead of no plan. I was sick last night and didn’t feel like cooking. I defrosted a bag of fajitas and added diced tomatoes and we had fajitas.
Now that have part of a can of diced tomatoes. Tonight we will have spaghetti in the insta pot so I can use the rest of the can of tomatoes.
Spaghetti in the insta pot—
1 ) Cooked hamburger, about 1/2 a pound. Or, cook it on sauté and drain of fatty hamburger,
2) Add 1/2 pound of spaghetti noodles, broken in half, and placed in a circle around the meat, Like a birds nest. This is to prevent noodles sticking together.
3) pour a jar or can of pasta sauce over the noodles and hamburger.
4) pour 2 cups of broth of your choice AROUND the outside of the noodles. You don’t want to disturb the noodles and pasta sauce.
5) put the lid on the pot and make sure it is set to the seal position.
6) process on manual for 8 minutes.
7) when it is done, manually release the pressure. Letting the pot release its own pressure will result in water logged noodles.
8) while the pot is coming to pressure and cooking, you can make the rest of dinner without tending to a pot.
