Homemade meals cooked at home with an Instant Pot.
So one of my favorite thing about my Ace Instant Pot blender is that I can make smoothies for the whole family. The glass jar is plenty big. So lately I have been craving something with pineapples. When my friend told me she had a recipe for Dole Whips I was on it. It is simple for sure and your family is going to LOVE you. Oh and this is a dairy-free dessert
1 lb of green beans
1/4 cup of bacon bits
1/4 cup of tomatoes
1/2 tbsp of butter
dash of salt and pepper
Leek and Cauliflower Soup in Ace Instant Pot Blender. Is my new favorite soup. It has a flavor that is out of this world PLUS it is so easy to make. You can make it in your Ace Instant Pot blender or you regular Instant Pot. If you do in your pressure cooker you will need an immersion blender. Here is one that I have 
Black-Eyed Peas in Instant Pot. Is a recipe that I make every few months but mainly on New Year’s Eve. So last year I decided to make Black-Eyed Peas in my Instant Pot. It went so great that now my family wants me to make every year. So I decided to share my recipe with everyone.

So my birthday was in November and my mom got me an Ace Blender. So after a few days of playing with my new blende,r I decided to make my soup recipe. It is a soup recipe I have used for years but I have never had this smooth. So if you want a smooth soup to check out this Ace Blender Butternut Squash Soup. This will make enough for 4-6 people, normally I serve with a nice piece of baked chicken.
1 medium butternut squash
2 carrots, sliced
2 stalks of celery, sliced
1 large onion, quartered
salt and pepper at least 2 Tsp
3 cloves of garlic
4 leaves of sage or 2 tsp of sage
4 sprigs of thyme
1 spring of rosemary
splash of red pepper, more if you want more of a kick
2 1/2 cups of veggie broth
(make your own, click here to see recipe)
*if you want a little sweeter add in a sliced apple
First, you need to make your squash soft. Place in the microwave for 4 minutes.
Once you take out of the microwave you will peel the squash, cut in half.
Clean out all of the seeds and then cut into pieces.
Next, chop up all your other veggies. I place all mine
onto a cookie sheet.
Now simply place all the solid food into your Ace Blender.
Then add in your herbs and spices and
your veggie broth.
Now turn your Ace blender onto soup and do 2.
Let it run its course and when it gets to the end
it will get super smooth just like mine.
I did let mine cool for 5 minutes before
I take off the Ace Blender base.
I love cooking for Thanksgiving so after I was done I had a huge bag of items to the trash. My husband had his hand over the trash can with them when I said STOP! I could use those to make veggie stock for some soups. He looked at me and said okay you need to do soon. So the next day I got up cleaned up my Instant Pot and came up with this recipe.
4-5 cups of veggie scraps.
2 bay leaves
salt and pepper
4 cups of water
cheese strainer or mesh strainer
Here are some of my favorite veggies to pick from.
Onions
carrots
celery
leeks
garlic
lettuce
potatoes
potatoes skins
green beans
squash
pea pods
bell pepper
corn cobs
beets
thyme
rosemary
basil
parsley
winter green skins
You will want to stay with produce products that are good. Not ones you planned on tossing in the garbage can because they are getting old.
Add in 4 cups of water into your Instant Pot
Next, add in your bay leaves and some salt and pepper
Lastly, add in your veggie scraps.
push them all down so they get some water on them.
Plus it will help them go down once you are cooking them under pressure.
Press your pressure cooker/manual button
and set for 75 minutes.
once done you will turn off your pressure cooker
and let naturally release.
About 2-3 hours later I get my mesh strainer out
and a big bowl and strain all my veggies and then
let the broth cool down.
Once completely cooled down you will place in glass jars
or baggies. You can place in your fridge for 4 days or freeze
and it will be good for place
them 6 months.
So in my family, we drink a lot of hot chocolate in the fall. So when I got my Ace Instant Pot blender I had to try it out. First I did the water test, it went perfectly. Next, I decided on making hot cocoa in the Ace Instant Pot Blender. I was unsure about how I would like but sure enough, it was a huge hit. I can’t wait to make for Christmas cookie day. So here is my recipe so you can make for your family.
1/2 cup of cocoa powder
1/4 cup of sugar
1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
4-6 cups of water
(the less water the stronger the taste)
First, get your water into your Ace blender.
Next add in your vanilla extract then,
normally I mix up my cocoa powder and sugar in a bowl.
then I will place inside of the Ace blender.
I selected soup, it will show one.
After 10 seconds it will start.
I let it cook the whole time but you can stop
it when it starts to boil.
If you stop before it is done you can pulse 1-2 times
for a few seconds each time.
Soup in winter is a must. So every year I try and make at least 5 new soups for our family to try out. Some are a flop and some are amazing. So when I made this German Potato Soup in Instant Pot.
