INSTANT POT® SPINACH AND MUSHROOM FRITTATA

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat oil in the pot and add mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Saute until mushrooms are tender and onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Push Cancel. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Clean the inside of the pot when it is cool enough to handle.
• Whisk eggs and heavy cream together in a medium bowl. Stir in spinach, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well blended. Add the mushroom mixture and stir until well combined.
• Pour 1 cup water into the pot and place a steamer rack trivet in the bottom.
• Spray a souffle dish or other heat-proof dish with nonstick cooking spray. Pour egg mixture into the prepared dish and cover loosely with foil. Place the dish on top of the trivet.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 6 to 7 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, for 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove foil from the frittata and pour off any excess liquid before slicing and serving.

SPINACH MUSHROOM ORZO

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 Tablespoon butter. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook, stirring often until mushrooms are softened and brown.
• Lower heat to medium, add remaining butter and orzo. Stir until the pasta starts to turn a light golden brown (it will only take a few minutes).
• Add chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Turn down to a simmer and continue stirring until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed (it will take about 10 minutes).
• Remove from heat, then add parmesan cheese and spinach, stirring until the cheese is melted and spinach is wilted. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Serve warm.
