by Texas Homesteader ~ It’s very beneficial for our food budget that I prefer to cook dry beans. I mean, a bag of dried beans is cheap, y’all! And now that I have an Instant Pot, cooking them is super fast too. Especially black-eyed peas. Heck, I don’t even have to soak them first. Black-eyed […]
by Texas Homesteader ~ *contains affiliate link I love my Instant pot for many things. One of the biggest benefits is faster or simplified cooking in my kitchen.
