The photo is of my Instant Pot Paella dish from Williams Sonoma that use all the time for a dinner when I am tired or exhausted. You have to add chorizo sausage, peas and chicken according to directions. You add the peas after the cooking phase. I also add about 1/2# of peeled shrimp at the same time as the peas. We love it. I have only had one of the IP instant dishes that I have not liked. I restock any time I am in the store.
Actually I want to tell you also about something I consider a must have for saving for future meals find in this months Fine Cooking. They are called Souper Cubes. If you have read this for a while, you will know that I make my own broth. I have been canning it and may still can the next broth, but what these cubes allow me to do is divide the broth into cubes that are pre-measured to be
2 C, 1 1/2 C, 1 C, 2 T. After the broth is frozen you can store in plastic bags. I don’t intend to but what this does it allows me to have the smaller portions than 1 qt. without trying to figure out what to do with the rest of the quart. If you go to soupercubes.com it takes you to Amazon and prime customers get free shipping. You can buy the sizes separately or all in one package. This even works if buy store bought broth. Even the dried cubes now make 2 C at a time. You can freeze the rest and not worry about using it up or throwing it away.
Live alone and like homemade soup but do not like eating it for a week, the 2 C size is the perfect serving size. Freeze it for that night you get home late just don’t want to cook. That and your microwave will be your best friends.
