If there’s one kitchen gadget that has garnered a cult following in the last couple years, it’s the Instant Pot. You’ve seen the sales, you’ve seen the recipes and tips, you’ve seen the heartfelt essays on personal growth in the kitchen. And chances are you have a friend who has gone on (and on) about how much they love this budget seven-in-one appliance.

But you haven’t seen this. Nancy Olsen of Duluth, Minnesota, is the proud owner of 107 Instant Pots. Her obsession started a little over a year ago on her birthday when her husband gifted her an Instant Pot because one of his coworkers said it helped their family get dinner on the table faster.

“I took it out of the box and just immediately fell in love,” Nancy says of the first time she saw the appliance. “It was so light and the instructions were so easy to read. I hadn’t experienced a rush like that in awhile; I immediately felt at peace.”

Primal AviaryA warm bowl of soup always tastes nourishing. Add green tea to the broth, and the soup is even more nourishing, offering anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties that can have a positive effect on a wide range of health issues. If you’re not a bonafide green tea lover, this soup might turn into a favorite way to “drink” green tea. The flavor that green tea adds to soup is very subtle, a little herbal, with just a hint of the astringency that tea is known for. Otherwise, it’s still the familiar, savory bowl of soup you love.

You can steep green tea into your own favorite chicken soup recipe, or try this one. In this simple recipe, garlic and ginger are simmered in chicken broth, then the green tea is steeped in the broth for 5 minutes. Thinly sliced mushrooms and spinach are added at the very end (plus optional shredded chicken).

Pile of green tea isolated on whiteLoose-leaf green tea, which is often thought to be fresher, more flavorful and more healthful, is ideal when steeping green tea into soup. But if you already have a box of green tea bags in your pantry, or if buying tea bags is the most practical option for you, then do it. The soup will still be delicious and nutritious in every way.

  • 6 cups chicken stock (1.4 L)
