Insta Pot Taco Soup

I seriously LOVE my Insta Pot and I use it as often as possible! There are just so many things to make in it. I know a lot of people are intimidated by them at first, but once you have mastered a couple of simple recipes it INis so easy to use. This recipe for Taco Soup is one of the first things I made in mine. I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine does!!

ingredients

  • 2lbs Hamburger
  • Large Onion , diced
  • 15 oz can Pinto Beans
  • 15 oz can Kidney Beans
  • Bag of frozen corn ( or drained can of corn)
  • 28 oz Large canned Tomatoes (I use fire roasted)
  • Packet of ranch seasoning
  • Packet of taco seasoning
  • 1 cup of water

DIRECTIONS

Brown meat on sauté’ setting on Insta Pot. Dump all the rest of ingredients. DO NOT DRAIN the Pinto or Kidney beans. Pressure cook for 3 minutes and then quick release. Pout into bowls and enjoy!
Serve with Frito Scoops or Tortilla chips, Sour Cream, Shredded cheese, Avocadoes. read more


Mandarin Orange Cake

A good friend of mine brought this cake to a gathering and my husband fell in love! It is a perfect cake for Spring and Summer months, as everything about it is light and refreshing tasting!


INGREDIENTS
1 16.5 ounce Betty Crocker Classic Butter Golden Cake Mix
3/4 cup cooking oil
4 eggs
1 15 ounce can mandarin oranges, undrained ..yes I said UNDRAINED!
(I always save a couple and put on top of cake to decorate)

FROSTING
1 3.4 ounce box instant vanilla pudding
2 8 ounce cans crushed pineapple, undrained..Again…I said UNDRAINED! lol
1 8 ounce container Cool Whip, thawed

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a large bowl, mix all the cake ingredients until well blended. You can use a mixer for the cake ingredients, but then fold in the mandarin oranges using a wooden spoon. If you use a mixer, it “tears” up the oranges too much and they become mushy.
Treat your cake pans for non stick. I traditionally use a product called “cake release”. You can find it in the cake decorating section of your local Walmart. Or you can use a non stick spray. I use two 8″ cake pans, but you can certainly use the traditional 9 inch pans. Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes checking for doneness as ovens vary. Remove from oven and let cool. read more
