I made a really good cream of mushroom soup in my Instant Pot tonight. It was really simple. Mostly broth and was a ketogenic recipe. I almost used full fat coconut milk instead of the cream, but it was equal to only an 8th of a cup per serving and I only made two servings since 8 oz of mushrooms was all I had.
Deb, I wasn't so worried about the shipping on mine. I just knew I was not going to order just one if I wanted another and pay that much shipping. But, it is odd that some got free shipping for the whole set and some did not. That does not make sense. I am sorry that you are in so much pain after PT. I wonder what they will say when you tell them that you were in pain. You have been pretty diligent on being careful with workouts. When I do the boneless beef ribs in the instant pot it is so easy and does not take very long. One of the tricks I have found with meats is to saute them first till they are pretty brown before you pressure cook them. It makes the flavor so much better. I do that with roasts too. My granddaughter went back for seconds commenting on how she did not think she had ever had beef ribs only the pork ones from bbq places with bones in them. I will probably still try to work in Kelly's Raw rotation in somewhat next week, but know I will also be working in those Pyramid workouts. The cardio lite dvd should be easy to work in as I have been adding other cardio to the rotation anyway.
Valerie, I think I had a grandchild adjust my bike. I realized that my knees were coming up way to high when I pedaled seated. Checking how straight I could put my leg while sitting left my knee really bent still. This is probably why sometimes I could feel it in my knees. I took an interest in Jack Ryan, other than gory parts. I don't often do that with a show. We are watching a series called A Person of Interest on Netflix now. We are on the 3rd season. I like it sometimes and others, I am not so interested. It kind of has an interesting theme of helping people in bad positions and how they find them to help. Also working on cleaning up a partially corrupt police department.
Advil and Motrin upset my stomach more than Curcumin/tumeric. I think you get different grades of the product though. Like most uncontrolled products go as to which part of the plant, rhizomes, roots, leaves etc. and how much. I just know that Thorne seemed to give me the greatest relief when my neck, head, and shoulders were hurting and I was trying to get away from the Advil which upsets my stomach, makes my ears ring and after a few doses my hearing is muffled. I think it is worth a try.
Carolyn, is that one of the workouts that is by itself or one attached to another workout series? I remember leaner legs from CTX, But I am think that there was one that came out later by itself.
Judy, I looked all over for a free shipping option and it only gave me a choose shipping which usps was the lowest cost. I just figured it was because I only ordered two dvds. Nice workouts this week. I like that she put an extended stretch with the Lite workouts. Do you take Tumeric in capsules. Some of it gives me heart burn. I generally stick with the Meriva Curcumin. It seems to work best for me. There are several brands that carry it. I really liked the Thorne Research Meriva 500-SF curcumin which really helps with pain. It is kind of expensive at 30.00 though. Jarrow makes a Meriva curcumin called Curcumin Phytosome Meriva that is 13.44 on Amazon. It was only so, so after using the Thorne brand though. I love recipes that have curry and tumeric in them and they do sometimes cause me to have digestive issues when I eat them.
Lori, I have seen so many recipes for ribs in the Instant Pot. I looked at different ones on Pinterest and in cookbooks and came up with my own method. As stated above, I have found browning all of the meats really well first makes a huge difference in flavor. I do that, take them out and pit the rack in the bottom, pour in some beef broth instead of water for the liquid, brush with a little liquid smoke and smokey seasoning salt, then put bbq sauce on top and pressure cook them around 25 minutes (yesterday 30) as I put two packs of 8 boneless ribs in. I usually do just one. I let it slow release and they are done. I have seen a coupe of recipes where they used chinese five spice season blend which would be a totally different flavor. Yes, Kelly has put together quite a library in a short amount of time. The new ones she has planned will be great. She has something for everyone there and does listen to what others would like. That is great that you got the downloads done already. My two dvds will be here Monday.
. I agree, I thought my hip would be better by now too.
