food recipe: {NEW!} Instant Pot Shredded Chicken, Blueberry Crumb Bars, Shrimp Taco Bowl, and MORE!

Latest recipes from Simply Recipes.



Hello! Good morning! It is HOT here in Northern California - and also where many of you live, I hear! We've definitely hit the time of the summer when turning on the oven to cook dinner is best avoided. Do you have an Instant Pot or a pressure cooker? If so, cook up a batch of shredded chicken! It won't heat up the ktichen, it makes a ton, and it can go into tacos, quesadillas, salads, and other quick meals all week long. And if you get a break in the heat, definitely make these Blueberry Crumb Bars. I made them for the 4th and they were in-CRED-ible. XOXO Emma, Managing Editor

Pressure Cooker Shredded Chicken Taco Meat

by Coco Morante

Whether you’re making weeknight tacos for your family or hosting a potluck party for a crowd, making shredded chicken in the pressure cooker is such time saver.

Cooked in a mixture of Mexican spices and tangy pineapple juice, chicken thighs quickly become tender and easily shredded, ready for piling into tortillas.

Blueberries are such a popular snack in our house—my 3-year-old son eats them by the handful. But they also make their way into a lot of the baking and cooking I do.

He often requests them in pancakes and muffins, and more recently, in these blueberry crumb bars.

For as long as I can remember, shrimp has been one of my favorite foods, and these grilled shrimp taco bowls treat shrimp like the pretty little superstars they are!

This bowl is packed with healthy Mexican-inspired ingredients such as black beans, corn, tomatoes, and lettuce, all served on top of rice with a spicy cilantro dressing.

These kimchi deviled eggs transcend your average deviled egg by incorporating classic Korean ingredients such as kimchi, sesame, and gochujang, a Korean chili paste.

The result is wildly exciting. The sesame and gochujang add nuttiness, sweetness, and spice while the kimchi contributes a bright, sour flavor with a hint of funk.
