Protein Chocolate Chip & Blueberry Bagels

These are soooooo good! My kids ask me to make these ALL the time. Esp my picky eater, she loves them!! Def can add whatever you want to them, or as toppings. I love mine with either plain or strawberry cream cheese. Yum! I know what I am making this week! No judging, our microwave broke and we decided to order new appliances, these were just old and needed to go, had them for 8 years. I LOVE our new appliances!  Funny story content: I was making mini corndogs and the stupid muffins would not stop crumbling! I was pissed and kinda sorta hit the pan on the side of our counter until it dented! oops.  My son, the one speaking, loves throwing that in my face. 😀  You Will Need: 2 Cups Flour 1 tsp Salt 2 tsp Baking Powder 1 tsp Cinnamon 1 Cup Greek Whole Milk Vanilla Yogurt 2 tbsp Honey  Chocolate Chips/Blueberries (I used frozen wild ones, thawed) Melted Butter, brushed on top before cooking. Cook 400 degrees for 10-15 mins or until golden brown. 

Instant Pot Ham & Bean Soup

I use bone broth in this recipe ALL the time, but I was out of my stock when I made this. :( Bone broth gives you an added health benefits and if you are ill bone broth is VERY good for you to help you start to feel better. I cooked this for 40 minutes on high pressure but it needed longer. I like to do 40 minutes open it and check it because it won't take as long to come up to pressure since its still very hot. Here in Ohio, it has been SOOOO cold and windy that soup is really all we want (the kids even want it and they are not big soup fans). This soup, however, is everyones favorite. We love this soup so much, that I canned it and is downstairs in our canned foods storage (all canned from myself and my husband together- here is a photo of it below). Anyhow, if you love soup, give this a try it is super easy and sooo yummy! But def start it a few hours before dinner so we can double check it is done and give it another 20-30 minutes if needed once 40 minutes is up.
You Will Need:
16 oz Dried Navy Beans
1 pk Diced Ham
2 tsp All Spice
2 Bay Leaves
1 Ham Hock
3 Carrots, diced
2 Celery Stocks, diced 
1/2 Onion, diced
4 Cups Chicken Bone Broth
