Instant Dinners for Busy Weeknights

Written by Ocean Mist Farms. | September 19, 2018

At the end of a long day, a nice relaxing meal is always in order.  But if you're like me, you need the comfort of a home-cooked meal without a lot of hassle.  My Instant Pot has been a life-saver so many nights when I needed the best of both worlds - home-cooked and quick & easy.  Today I'm sharing a few Instant Pot meals that have become a regular in my weeknight dinner rotation.

This Stuffed Chicken Breast with Artichoke and Cherry Tomato Sauce delivers a bowl of rich flavor and hearty goodness in under 30 minutes that you can't pass up. For the carb lovers in your family, the whole dish is great served over a bed of jasmine or white rice.

While we're enjoying the fantastic flavor pairing of artichokes and tomatoes, let me share one of my family's personal favorites - Italian Artichokes.  In this classic Italian artichoke dish, six simple ingredients come together for a heavenly combination.  And now that I can save time using my Instant Pot, we're loving them even more!
