DELICIOUS, AUTHENTIC MEXICAN MEALS MADE BETTER IN HALF THE TIME!
Hi! We’re Emily and Rudy, a wife and husband cooking duo!
After the success of cookbook #1, The Art of Great Cooking with Your Instant Pot®, which ranked #4 in Amazon’s Top 10 New Releases in Gluten Free Recipes, we’re so excited to bring you the flavors of Mexico at home with minimal effort and time by harnessing the power of your Instant Pot®.

We live in Northern California. Our daily life is mixed with typical chaos, work work work, never-ending dishes and laundry, homeschooling for our Tiny Love, public Waldorf school and homework for Little Love, a little rest for me if I can since my body is working hard growing baby #3, a kitchen that almost always has dishes, cutting boards and kitchen tools out all over the counters because we make real food for every meal, plus all the normal household chores and other things … that being said, we are always looking for ways to get our meals on the table faster.
