Cheesy White Bean & Leek Casserole
I found this recipe for Cheesy White Bean & Leek Casserole on a package of dried beans when we lived in London in the ‘90s. As the Brits would say, this is cheap and cheerful! It’s actually one of our favorites. I haven’t made it in years and now will keep it in rotation.

Chicken Luzon
This Chicken Luzon apparently is a recipe from Brennan's in New Orleans, though it's no longer on the menu. Regardless of where this recipe originated, it's really good. The chicken is coated in a rub, simmered in a creamy sauce, and served on a bed of linguini. It's quick and easy to make.

Bananas Foster Shortcake
I happen to love Banana's Foster. When I was pregnant with my first daughter, Zoe, I woke up one morning and said to my husband. "I want bananas foster." He then said that we would make it that evening. I then said, "No, you don't understand, I need it now!" It's really amazing that we had all the ingredients in the house. He granted my wish and it hit the spot! It's one of my favorite desserts. Zoe likes it too! Anyway, I have made Brennan's Bananas Foster, Bananas Foster Layer Cake, and Bananas Foster Upside-Down Cake. I guess you could say I'm a bit bananas! Anyway, I went further and made this I love

Lemony Shrimp Risotto
I made this Lemony Shrimp Risotto in my Instant Pot, but have also included the stovetop instructions. I have to say, I love making risotto in the Instant Pot because it's fast and you don't have to stand there and stir it. The lemon adds a bright and tangy note to the shrimp.
