Who else loves adding a little beautiful, bright red cranberry to your holiday cooking in November and December? Really, cranberries are an awesome added flavor all winter long I think.

I’m especially loving this Instant Pot cranberry stuffing recipe, because it is fast, flavorful, and uses my favorite appliance for the entire process. I also love the fact that it allows for one more way to use my Instant Pot on my busiest days in the kitchen all year — Thanksgiving and Christmas. I’m adding it to my list of Instant Pot Holiday Recipes! Those are the days when so much is going on with the oven and stove top, having a way to put one of my other appliances to good use is a huge help.

Here’s a picture of Instant Pot Cranberry Stuffing. Doesn’t it look delectable?

You will be using the pot-in-pot method of cooking for this recipe, so find a metal baking pan that will fit down into your IP. A stackable pan set will allow you to make two sides at once if you like.

So here’s what you need to do to make your Instant Pot Cranberry Stuffing. First of all, buy the cranberries. You can use fresh or you could even use dried. You also need to grab some unseasoned dried bread cubes for the stuffing. And pecans. See the full ingredients list below, but those are the things I wouldn’t necessarily have on hand myself. Ok – shopping done, what’s next?

Get out a large mixing bowl, add the first four ingredients and stir to combine. Sauté your onions and celery in the butter for 2-3 minutes. Add in the seasonings and continue stirring for one minute. (You can do this in the IP using the sauté setting so you have fewer dishes to wash if you want.) Pour the sautéed mixture over the mixing bowl ingredients and stir to combine.

Once you have everything stirred up, transfer it all to your metal baking pan found earlier. Cover the pan with foil or a lid if it came with one. Add 1.5 cups of water to the main Instant Pot liner. Add the trivet. Lower the metal baking pan containing the stuffing down onto the trivet. Seal the IP and set to 20 minutes on high pressure. Walk away and dab because your work is done and when you come back in a little bit you will have delicious Instant Pot Cranberry Stuffing!

Don’t forget to use a quick pressure release when you are finished.

See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I thought they were goners. See, my sister gave us the bulbs for Asiatic Lillies for Christmas last year, down in a bag full of dirt and told us to take them home and plant them in the cold so they would rest and come back next year. Or freeze them. I did neither. I knew we weren’t in our own home yet, and we were hoping to move into our forever home this summer, so I threw them in the closet and waited. They stayed dormant, and started to develop roots in the Spring, still in the bag in my closet. Come June 5, we moved into our new house, and I pulled out the bag around June 15 to plant them and found that the roots were turning to mush. The bulbs were starting to rot. I planted them anyway, but to make matters worse, I accidentally planted them upside down because I thought the roots were actually sprouts. Oops. Then, I hired my boys and their friends to weed the bed where these are planted and forgot to tell them to leave these alone. The “sprouts” disappeared. I thought they were gone forever. Here it is the middle of August, and a week or so ago, I found these baby Asiatic Lillies coming up. I texted a pic to my sis to ask if this was what they look like. Sure enough after all that trauma, this gift survived. I won’t have blooms this year, but I’m told they will come back next year and survive to bloom. What a sweet blessing that will be, God willing. And a sweet reminder to persevere under trials and hardship. God is doing something bigger, something hidden, something better than we can ever imagine. Hang in there! #momlife #momfierce #momforthewin #firmlyplanted
Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff, especially the unmasking of pedophilia and it’s prominence in the US and in our backyards. This horrifies and frightens me. I am so grateful to know that God will prevail. In the end, He wins. Everything seems so dark here in the US and it’s because of the spiritual forces of evil — but I know God will prevail. His love never fails. I’m putting my hope in this truth. #loveneverfails #godwins #godisgreater #momlife #momfierce

There are so many things I need to tell you about There are so many things I need to tell you about this picture. First #sheisloved campaign with @mercyhouseglobal and sheispriceless.org - check that out it’s important. Second - that cute bracelet came from @mercyhouseglobal about a month ago and *didn’t fit*. Today it’s loose enough to twist. I haven’t lost a lot of pounds according to the scale — I kinda stalled out three or four weeks ago at 17 pounds lost — but apparently I’m losing fat. That’s a victory. Third, my hands look like my moms and will some day look like my grandmas. I consider that a blessing.  Finally, it’s been a beautiful day😍 but I’m kinda sad it took me this long to find a red marker and share the love. If you have one handy, it’s not too late to jump on board with @wearethatfamily and be a world-changer! #worldchanger #momfierce #prayformoms #especiallyteenmomsinkenya #mymomrocks
How was Mother’s Day for you. It can be an incre How was Mother’s Day for you. It can be an incredible blessing or bring incredible pain. In whatever your circumstance, I will pray that you rest in God’s presence today. #mom #momlife #momwins #momfierce #momsofinstagram #2020mom
