 friends welcome back to my channel and welcome if you are new here I have another WW instant pot video coming your way I have two absolutely indulgent comfort food to the max instant pot recipes incredibly easy to make both of them and seriously perfect for this wintery cold time of year so if you want to see what two instant pot recipes I have in store for you just stay tuned for tonight's instant pot dinner we're gonna be making chicken noodle soup comforting warm and delicious on a fall or winter day so cannot wait for this it's going to be very easy all-in-one pot simple fast dinner so let me show you what is in our chicken noodle soup you're going to need four cups of water one box or four cups of chicken broth minced garlic salt and pepper time and parsley four rather large chicken breasts celery carrots and an onion and some noodles so I have these noodles for a long time I don't even know where I got these but I'm you know I love fiber gourmet and these were sitting in my pantry so I decided I was going to use them in the soup I will put here on the screen what I thought of the noodles since I have not tried them yet so I these are the carbonata al dente egg fettuccine noodles now these are more points than fiber gourmet and plus I love fiber gourmet but I thought that I would try these since I had these on hand so let's get started on our chicken noodle soup so the first thing that we're going to do is chop up our veggies so we have an onion two stalks of celery and I'll peel and dice up two carrots we're just going to put these in a bowl because all of these are going to go into the instant pot at one time so the first step for our soup is we're going to go ahead and turn our instant pot onto the saute mode that's going to get nice and warm we're going to go ahead and spray our instant pot with some non-stick cooking spray and I like to spray it pretty good because I want to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom once our instant pot warms up we're going to go ahead and add in the celery carrots and onion mixture and we're just going to let those cook down about four minutes just until they start to soften once your veggies have started to soften a little bit we're going to go ahead and add in two cloves of our minced garlic and then the recipe calls for a fresh thyme but I only have the dried so I'm going to go ahead and add about a teaspoon of dried thyme and we're just going to let this cook just another minute or so just until the garlic starts to become fragrant go ahead and turn your instant pot off once everything's become nice and fragrant to your instant pot you're going to go ahead and add in your breast of chicken I have four of them here and I'm going to add them in whole we're going to actually shred them once it's cooked so this saves a lot of time by just adding them in whole to your instant pot and then we're going to season them of course with some salt and pepper and go ahead and do that to your liking it just a season generously with salt and pepper so a little bit of salt and then of course we're going to add in a little bit of pepper and then the last step before we turn on our instant pot and get this cooking is we're going to go ahead and add in our four cups of chicken broth and I have the simple truth reduced sodium I like this chicken broth it's organic and the reduced sodium just helps save on that salt intake especially before weigh in so I added the simple truth organic chicken broth and then I'm also going to add in four cups of water so our instant pot is going to be nice and full and then we're ready to go ahead and put on our lid and we're going to set this on high manual for seven minutes so the timer went off it has been naturally releasing for about five minutes so I'm going to go ahead and open up my vent here as soon as the pressure is gone we're going to pop the lid off next step is we're going to take out our chicken on the board here and we're going to shred it up with a couple of forks so the chicken is out of the instant pot we're just going to take a couple of forks it is so tender you guys and we're just going to shred it up and then we're just literally going to put the chicken right back into the instant pot so go ahead and get all four chicken breasts nice and shred it up back in the instant pot and then we'll be ready to add in our pasta so now we're going to go ahead and add that chicken right back in look at this you guys yum this is a ton of chicken be careful not to splash yourself because the liquid is incredibly hot in here so we're going to get the chicken added back in and then it'll be time for some noodles so here is my dinner for tonight this is one sixth of the soup so this is quite a lot this is a very large bowl this looks delicious I topped it with just a tiny bit of parsley so for one sixth or the sixth servings total it is five smart points per serving I am going to pair mine with some salting crackers for an additional point so that will be a sixth smart point dinner for tonight's instant pot dinner I am making Philly cheesesteak sandwiches this is going to be delicious and it is all done in the instant pot so let me show you what is in tonight's dinner first you're going to need some hoagie rolls of your choice I'm going to be using these private selection Italian urban garlic these are one of the lower point hoagie rolls that I could find these are five points per roll and they look delicious you'll also need some steak I always just buy the shaved steak it's just so much easier it is the perfect consistency texture and thickness for Philly cheesesteak sandwiches I pick mine up at Fred Meyer which is also a Kroger store I know Trader Joe's sells it as well and then you'll need your typical Philly cheesesteak veggies peppers and onion we're also going to need some oregano I'm going to be using the Yarlsburg Light Swiss cheese in place of provolone because this cheese is only one smart point per slice I pick mine up at Trader Joe's but I have heard that Costco carries it as well if you have a Costco or Sam's Club in your area and lastly some salt and pepper so let's get started on tonight's dinner so the first thing that we need to do is chop so we are going to chop our two peppers into slices also our medium onion and then that's it we're ready to throw everything into the instant pot so go ahead and pull out your instant pot you're going to go ahead and turn it on to saute and then we are going to spray generously our instant pot base with some non-stick cooking spray we're going to let that warm up for just a few minutes and we're going to add in our veggies once your instant pot is nice and warmed up we're going to go ahead and add in all of those veggies listen to that sizzle that is what I like to hear so we're going to go ahead all these in we're going then we're going to season them and get them cooked down for about five minutes it won't take very long for them to soften and saute down a bit in the instant pot so we're going to go ahead and just add some salt and we are going to season again once we add in our meat so you don't have to add a lot of seasoning in the beginning we're also going to of course add a little bit of pepper because that always makes it taste a little bit better and then lastly we're going to pop in a little bit of oregano and again we're going to let these saute down for about five minutes just until our veggies start to soften once your veggies have softened quite a bit they're still a little bit al dente but they are the onions are pretty translucent which is what we were looking for we're going to go ahead and add in our steak so again I'm using the shaved steak if you use any other kind of steak you would want to probably chop that up first and then go ahead and add it in here with your veggies I'm going to try to break mine up a little bit it is very thin slice honestly it is just like you ordered a philly cheese steak sandwich at a restaurant it's the perfect steak for this and then we're going to just quickly season again so a little bit more pepper we want to make sure there's enough seasoning for both our meat and our veggies I'm going to add a little more salt and then lastly I'm going to add just a couple more dashes of oregano give that another quick mix we're going to turn our instant pot off of the saute mode right now we're on the saute mode so we're going to go ahead and turn that off we are going to put on our lid and we are going to cook this down for eight minutes on high so basically you're just going to hit manual and you're going to turn it to eight minutes and you are good to go once the eight minutes is up we are going to naturally release for 10 before we remove the rest of the pressure and pop our lid off so 10 minutes is up on the natural release so you're just going to turn your dial there shouldn't be very much pressure left so you can see that it's barely releasing any pressure and then we're going to go ahead and pop our lid off and I'll show you what our philly cheese steak looks like so pop your lid off and there it is oh that looks so good so you're going to want to give it a stir make sure your meat is nice and separated oh yeah it cooked it through perfectly so this is kind of what that shaved steak looks like it's definitely very reminiscent of a restaurant style of philly cheese so this looks really good I'm just going to stir it up a little bit make sure my meat is shredded and mixed in well with my veggies and then we are going to put together our sandwiches I do have some frozen vegetables in the microwave you can probably hear that in the background that we're just going to pair with our sandwiches but this looks really good so let's put together this dinner and I'll be back to show you my dinner and give you the smart points here is my dinner for tonight I have some veggies with some spray butter salt and pepper for zero and then over here I have my philly cheese steak sandwich so I have one of the buns which is five smart points one fourth of the meat vegetable mixture is also five smart points and then it is one point for the slice of the yarlsburg cheese so this dinner just for the sandwich is 11 smart points and then the veggies of course are zero so this is my 11 smart point
