Cooking this weekend

Kyle and I did a bunch of cooking in the last few days. He did Italian beef in the pressure cooker, which had a very tasty flavor and cooked very quickly! I made some healthy pumpkin pancakes with pumpkin butter, and I plan to use some of the pumpkin butter with oatmeal and with yogurt for some fall-flavored parfaits and breakfasts! Got to use a nice new pot to cook the pumpkin butter.

I made some overnight oatmeal muffins that I have made before but hadn't for a long time. They are really good and quite handy to have around.

We made coconut curry butternut squash soup for dinner, and got to use the immersion blender for that. It smelled really good but the flavor was a little lacking.

Kyle has now made two varieties of popcorn using just water and the dutch oven we got for the wedding: olive oil with salt and pepper and cinnamon and sugar. The recipes are from the healthy America's Test Kitchen book.
