On Sunday we had a birthday celebration for our eldest daughter. I made a very fall like dinner of Roast Pork Loin and Roasted Root Vegetables. I had planned on making a 3 lb roast but my roast but the smallest in my freezer was closer to 5 lbs.

These steak fajitas are cooked in the slow cooker and then do a quick broil for color and texture before being sliced and returned to the pot for serving. It is a great way to free up time, especially if having a fiesta and feeding a crowd.
This delicious Italian Sausage Tomato Sauce is easily made in the slow cooker and was delicious served over spaghetti for dinner one evening. There was enough sauce to use the remainder, sans sausage, over gnocchi a few days later as a quick and easy Meatless Monday meal. That is a win/win/win. A Slow cooker recipe that does double duty.

The Teen is a huge Taquito fan and I usually keep a box of store bought in the freezer for her to heat up for herself and friends. One day the box in the freezer was empty and I had just completed the Costco run where I normally purchase them. So onto Google I went and found this easy, quick air fryer recipe. The Teen said they are even better than the store bought version.
Using an Instant Pot for bean soup has become my new favorite thing about this small kitchen appliance. No soaking, no precooking and perfectly prepared, soft, creamy beans every. single. time! This navy bean soup is paired with smoked turkey and was an amazing way to use up my Thanksgiving leftovers. I might smoke some turkey legs just so I can make this soup again.
This quick and easy main course dish uses butter beans and smoked sausage. No need to soak or parboil the beans, the instant pot ensures fully cooked, soft and creamy beans.
