Mississippi Pot Roast

This was fantastic. We served it on fresh sourdough toast.  A few things. I would take half of the sauce away next time because our roast was small and we had tons of gravy/sauce. If you had a really big roast, it would probably be fine. I would also add some fresh pepperoncini sliced peppers if you serve it sandwich style. So, I saw a recipe on Pinterest that I used as an inspiration, and damndelicious also had a good one. Here is what I did. 2 1/2 lb. chuck roast 6 whole garlic cloves 1 Tbs. garlic 1 small onion 3/4 packet of dry   Ranch Dressing Mix 1 packet of Onion Soup mix 6 chopped Pepperoncini peppers 1/4 cup liquid from the pepperoncini jar 1 cup beef broth 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes 1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce So, you put the pressure cooker on Saute and then when it's really hot you sear the roast (you might have to cut it in smaller portions). It's like 2-3 minutes per side. Take that out, throw in an onion, add some beef broth to scrape up the caramel

Indonesian Grilled Chicken with Mango-Peanut Salsa

  Brit found this recipe (not sure from where) about 13 years ago, and it's a good one. The picture you see doesn't accurately represent it since I used tilapia instead of chicken, and I added beets and brown rice. The salsa is especially good, but it all has great flavor.  1 TBS ground ginger 1 TBS ground coriander 1 ½ tsp. turmeric 1 ½ tsp. garlic powder 3 Tbs. vegetable oil 1 Tbs. Asian chile paste (like sambal oelek) 1 Tbs. brown sugar 2 tsp. kosher salt 2 ½ lb. of chicken 2 cups small-diced fresh mango (2 mangos) ½ cup diced red bell pepper ½ cup salted peanuts, coarsely chopped 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions (one bunch) 3 Tbs. chopped cilantro 1 Tbs. seeded, minced jalapeno 3 Tbs. fresh lime juice     Mix ginger, coriander, turmeric, and garlic powder in bowl. Heat 2 Tb. of oil in skillet over low heat. Add spices to the hot oil and heat until they bubble and become fragrant, about 30 to 60 seconds. Return spice blend to bowl; stir in chile past, brown sugar and salt.
