cabbage and onions in the instant pot

I should start by saying I love a cabbage and onion mixture! It's been a while since I pulled out the instant pot and used it to cook anything. The other day I noticed I still had a lot of little onions and a big cabbage that had been sitting in the refrigerator since the last grocery shop. I hate it when I spend good money on fresh produce and then let it get into old produce! The flavor is always compromised. I decided to saute the onions in a bit of olive oil. They were small onions, about golf ball size, so I just peeled and cut in half before lightly sauteing. Then I rough cut the cabbage in both directions and thru it into the...

I love fresh vegetables from garden, especially zucchini from the garden! It's fun to watch them grow and I don't think you can eat much more local than that. This year three little zucchini plants have really done well and I anticipate I'll be making zucchini quite a bit later this summer. I've asked some friends in the Becoming Elli group to share their recipes me with because it's easy to get too repetitious with a recipe. If you've ever grown zucchini, you probably know that it all ripens at once! Although some of the ends of my baby zucchini have been nibbled by a deer, I don't think they liked it because it wasn't gone.  The deer have really feasted on the cucumbers, but I'm hoping the...
