Gnocchi Bolognese

Gnocchi Bolognese

A simple, quick, and delicious mix of Beef Bolognese (Beef in marinara sauce) and Gnocchi.

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil (for sautéing)
  • 4 cups Water
  • 1 medium Sweet Vidalia Onion (diced)
  • 1 or 2 Bell Pepper (any color) (sliced or diced)

  • 1 tsp Salt (to taste)
  • 1 /2 tsp Pepper (to taste)

  • add any seasonings you like as well (OPTIONAL)

  1. Turn 3 qt Instant Pot to Sauté

  2. Boil the Water in a  kettle or in a pot on the stove

  3. While the IP and the water are heating, dice and slice the Onion and Pepper(s)

  4. When the IP display reads HOT add the Olive Oil.

  5. Then add the vegetables.

  6. Let sauté for 5 minutes stirring gently from time to time to prevent burning.

  7. Add the beef and stri to brown

  8. When the water has boiled, add the Gnocchi to the saucepan and lower heat to medium.

  9. At this point you can drain any extra fat or liquid from the Instant Pot

  10. Add the can of Veg-All stir to mix well.

  11. Add the Marinara sauce and continue to stir to mix

  12. When the Gnocchi have all floated to the top they are ready. Drain with a colander or spider and add to the Instant Pot

  13. Gently stir everything together (I use a spatula).

  14. Allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes then serve!

Deep Depression Cake from www.kitchenfunwithmy3sons.com

Deep Depression Cake

There is nothing easier to make than a Deep Depression Cake. A cake that dates back to the Great Depression, it is easy to make, a moist and inexpensive cake that has an amazing flavor. Made without butter, eggs or milk, this cake was inspired during the Great Depression.

  • 1 1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1/3 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 cup Sugar (or Splenda)

  • Chocolate Frosting of your choice (or NO frosting works too!)
  • Rainbow Sprinkles optional
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Grease an 13×9 pan with butter.
  3. In the greased pan, combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Whisk lightly with a fork or small whisk to combine.
  5. Make two small wells on the sides and 1 large well in the middle of the dry ingredients.
  6. Pour the vinegar and vanilla into the small wells then pour the oil in the big well, if they spill over the wells that’s perfectly okay.
  7. Pour the water over the top and whisk again to combine thoroughly.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
