Instant Pot obsessionis real.
The cooking tool boasts an impressive list of uses.
Its truly the Swiss knife of meal prep.
As we move into Julyone of the hottest months of the yearthats definitely a perk.
Registered dietitianCarrie Forrest, RDis even more passionate about the Instant Pot than you are.
One of Forrests go-to meal prep recipes is her Instant Pot salsa chicken.
…
This recipe is one of my favorite meals to prep.
Its incredibly versatile and so satisfying and flavorful.
Add the chicken breasts to the pot, arranging them so they lay flat.
Its okay if they overlap each other.
Sprinkle the tops of the chicken with the salt, pepper, and cumin.
Lock on the lid and set the cooking time to 10 minutes at high pressure.
When the cooking time is complete, let the pressure come down naturally for about 10 minutes.
Then, use the quick release to release any remaining pressure.
Carefully pour the ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
…
Use tongs or two forks to shred the chicken.
Store the cooked shredded chicken in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.
Since the chicken is already cooked, this meal literally comes together within minutes.
Side of chips and guac absolutely encouraged.
Toss romaine lettuce with a serving of salsa chicken, vinaigrette dressing, chopped avocado, and chopped tomato.
This meal also tastes yummy with a serving of canned black beans.
Top with crumbled tortilla chips for added crunch.
Wednesday: Stuffed avocado
We stuff peppers and potatoes, why not the beloved healthy fat?
Cut aripe avocadoin half and remove the pit.
Scoop a spoonful of salsa chicken into the hollow left by the pit.
With those two steps, dinner is served!
(Sooo every night?)
Toast two slices of bread and scoop a serving of the salsa chicken on one of the slices.
Place the other slice of bread on top and cut the sandwich in half.
Spread your tortilla chips on a microwave-safe plate.
Microwave on high for 45 seconds, or until the cheese is melted.
Now its time to add your veggies.
Shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and jalapeno all make perfect toppings.
Add a dollop of sour cream if desired to balance the heat of the salsa and jalapeno.
