Instant Pot Leek Mashed Potatoes
A little something different from traditional mashed potatoes, for the Instant Pot. The leeks add a very mild oniony flavor. Enjoy!
Grandma's Best Ever Sour Cream Lasagna
This is my grandma's best lasagna recipe, except I use sour cream instead of ricotta (a trick I picked up from my mother-in-law). She always made it for birthdays and special occasions. This makes a large amount, so I halve it when making it for my boyfriend and myself. It's very cheesy, so sometimes I add a little extra tomato sauce.
Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole
I love making casseroles, and this one's so simple. The chicken breasts, Swiss cheese, and ham are cubed, rather than stuffed and rolled, giving you all the flavor of Cordon Bleu in much less time.
