Thanks, Nancylynn. I’m a, um, mature gentleman who has never cooked anything that didn’t fit in a microwave oven. I received an instant pot as a gift last summer and began experimenting with cooking. Yes, I am very aware of eating right and the basics of nutrition, particularly for seniors. I was attracted to your recipes immediately since feeding healthy meals to a busy family also apples to us older folks. You have been an inspiration and I wake up in the morning eager for my next culinary adventure that doesn’t pack on the pounds. Your videos are a big help for us rookies. Please keep ’em coming!
