Instapot chicken enchilada soup


Quick & easy & SO YUM. 

Just 5 minutes to prep!

In the bottom of your instapot, add in this order:

1.5 lbs organic free range chicken breasts or thighs (boneless)
1 can organic fire roasted crushed tomatoes (check for one with no sugar added! This is a sneaky place where lots of unnecessary sugar can be added to our diets)
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves minced garlic
2.5 c organic bone broth
1 T cumin
1 T chili powder
1 t oregano
1 t smoked paprika
1/2 t sea salt
1/2 t black pepper

-cook for 20 minutes on the manual setting at high pressure with a quick release. Once done, use two forks to shred the chicken in the pot. Mix well and ladle into bowls. Serve with avocado and fresh cilantro. We also love a little sheep yogurt to top (or sour cream) with our favorite healthy tortilla chips!

sweet potato toasts with mashed avo, instant pot buttery shredded chicken, sprouts, pom, & sumac



super messy & super delicious!

chicken:
in your instant pot add 4 organic pasture raised boneless skinless chicken breasts, 1 c organic bone broth, & seasoning of choice. put the lid on and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. turn pot off and let pressure release naturally (it’ll take about 10 min to pressurize, 10 min to cook, & 10 min to release pressure). open the lid, drain half the liquid and shred chicken in pot with 2 forks.

sweet potato toasts:
while chicken is cooking, slice a large sweet potato into 1/2” thick rounds and lay out on a baking sheet. drizzle with evo avocado oil & sprinkle with s + p. roast @400F for 20ish minutes until cooked through and golden.

assemble:
spread each sp toast with mashed avo (mashed with lemon juice, s + p), add chicken and homegrown sprouts and sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, and sumac. + add sprouted pumpkin seeds & pomegranate to top!

instant pot steaks + roasted veg bowl



preheat instant pot on sauté function. add 1 T ghee + 2 grass fed organic (local if possible!) steaks and season with sea salt, black pepper, hing spice & any other spices you like! sear 2 min on each side, then turn pot off and add 1 c water or bone broth + 1 T acv.

put the lid on and set to pressure cook on high for 3-5 minutes (depending on thickness of meat and how rare you like it). release steam before opening. easiest way to cook steak if you don’t have a grill. and cleanest! 


served up in a bowl with roasted curried butternut, beets, homegrown sprouts, fresh herbs, fermented veg, + a whole lotta sumac & lemon juice to top. also drizzled a bit of vegan homemade ranch dressing.
