Instant Pot Egg Bites!

These are my FAVORITE Egg Bite molds and they are quite useful and make many delicious things in my instant pot!!  I have utilized these to make egg bites, and mini brownies (I have serious lack of self control when it comes to sweets, so these molds are PERFECT!!!).  These molds fit in both the 6qt and the 8qt
8qt instant pot
6qt instant pot



















Egg bites CAN be frozen and re-heated!  I usually make 4 molds worth of egg bites and freeze 2 of the 4.  If I remember (ha!!!) I try and pull them out the night before to defrost a bit in the fridge.  If I don't, 2-3 minutes on defrost is all I need to warm them up.  If they are completely defrosted, I usually do 45 seconds in the microwave.

HOW DO YOU MAKE THESE DELICIOUS EGG BITES YOU ASK??

Ingredients: 
12 eggs beaten
1 package bacon, cut and cooked on stove
Green onion
Shredded Cheese


Directions:
1. Add 1-2 cups of water to your Instant pot
2. Fill molds first with a sprinkle of shredded cheese, add a bacon and green onion (sub. Ingredients like sausage, mushrooms, spinach... whatever you like to eat!)
3. Add spoonful of egg to each mold
4. Top with more shredded cheese
5. Place in Instant pot (on trivet that came with instant pot for easier removal)
6. I stacked with this (also great for hard boiling eggs!)
7. Seal and cook on manual for 8 minutes
8. NPR ~8-10 minutes
9. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes before removing from mold


 
Previously frozen (ice crystals on the lid)
Ready to put the lid on and cook!

BABY PROOFING- Don’t forget the furniture!

  BABYPROOFING We hear about baby proofing all the time, and when we talk about it most people's minds go to the most common items such as oven doors ,  outlets , Stove handles , cabinets , doors and even toilets .   Unfortunately, a commonly overlooked babyproofing item is furniture…YES, furniture! I am a facts and data kind of person, so I want to discuss the statistics first to help illustrate why this is such an important step in babyproofing. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) February 2022 Tip-Over Injuries report, there were an annual average of 22,500 emergency department treated injuries between 2018-2022, and 581 fatalities between 2000 and 2020.   Of those 22,500 injuries 10,000 were from children under 18 years old and of the 581 fatalities 472 were children under 18.   A few tools and a safety strap under $8 can save your child’s life. ( 2020 Tip-Over Report (cpsc.gov) ) Back in 2009 I had a close encounter with what could have been a t

Instant Pot Mac & Cheese (Video Included!!!)

I've decided I'm going to try and video at least one meal a week made with the Instant Pot , and post it here on the blog. Why?  Because I think this wonderful ol pot can be really intimating the first few times you use it. Mine sat in the box for 6 months. SIX. MONTHS.  So, no judgment here about that.  I only took it out because my friend Karisa came over and cooked with me- taught me the ins and outs.  After that, Once I got the hang of it, I was using it 2-4 times a week and went on to buy an 8qt instant pot (started with the 6qt).  It's really nice to have both, one because we're a family of 7.  But also because I can complete an entire meal (meat, veggies, potatoes of some sort) at one time and it's all done and ready to serve at once. This recipe I used is from the Instant Pot App (which is FREE by the way!!!) One thing I'm going to do differently next time is use the saute feature to melt the butter, then add the chicken broth and the noodles to
