For me, growing up in Minnesota, chicken wild rice soup was a dish that can be found all over the state. There are two typical versions of the soup, creamy or strictly stock based. For my version of chicken wild rice soup, I take the creamy version that is typically full of cream and replace it with a slightly healthier half & half. The soup comes out very hearty with vegetables, chicken and of course wild rice. This is the perfect recipe to use up leftover chicken, or can even substitute cooked turkey is a great alteration.
In this slow cooker italian meatball and tortellini soup, there is very minimal work to prepare the soup and let it cook all day while you are out at work or enjoying the day making it a great weekday dinner for the whole family.

The soup is very hearty and has a delicious flavor from the tender pork meatballs and rich flavored tomatoes. The soup can also be made ahead of time, just leave out the tortellini and add them once you ready the soup to serve.
So this Christmas season brought me into the crazy world of instant pots, since that is what Santa got me this year. As a chef for many years I have used all sorts of pressure cookers,steam cabinets and combination ovens that to the normal population will scare people but was everyday. These instant pots are all of high dollar equipment that was a day to day tool in my professional life into a small compact cooker that is going to make my life so much easier I believe. So the first thing I was going to do was make this chuck roast chili which will take hours if doing it on the stove top or in the oven, but in the instant pot it takes 35 minutes to cook. The flavors of the tender beef roast meat and the firm but soft beans in the chili infused sauce was incredible flavor and very hearty after a day playing in the snow.
