This recipe is similar to my sheet pan greek chicken and potatoes recipe, except this one is made in the instant pot with rice!
You only need one pot to make everything and it’s full of veggies and quality protein. The Greek seasoning covers the chicken and marinates to give this chicken so much flavor.
Ingredients for Greek chicken in the Instant Pot:
- Chicken: try and get organic, free range chicken without antibiotics. We love to get ours from Butcher Box!
- Red onion
- Zucchini
- Chicken or bone broth
- Jasmine rice
- Chopped parsley and feta to top (optional)

Greek Marinade Ingredients:
These are the ingredients for a flavorful greek marinade: Olive oil, Red wine vinegar, Fresh garlic, Lemon Juice, Dried oregano, Dried basil, Dried thyme, Salt, Pepper
I like to use dried herbs in this marinade because they tend to be a bit stronger and old up better for longer periods of time.
How long can you marinate chicken?
You can marinate your chicken for as little as 15 minutes or as long as overnight.
If you’re short on time: marinate the chicken at the beginning of the recipe while you get the rest of the ingredients prepped/chopped/cooked. By the time you’re ready to cook the chicken it will have marinated for about 15 minutes.
If you remember: you can marinate it overnight in the refrigerator. Be careful not to leave it in there too long or your chicken could get mushy.

How to make greek chicken in the Instant Pot:
- Start by marinading your chicken if you haven’t already. Allow to sit while you chop the onion and zucchini.
- Once the chicken is ready, turn a 6qt Instant Pot to saute mode and heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. When it’s hot, add the marinated chicken and allow to cook until the outsides brown (it doesn’t have to be fully cooked through).
- Next, add the onion and zucchini and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the chicken stock or bone broth then the rice and close the lid.
- Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes then quick release. Stir to fluff rice then add chopped parsley and feta before serving if desired.
What to serve with greek chicken:
Because this greek chicken recipe is already made with rice I don’t think it needs anything else besides extra toppings like parsley and feta. You could also add some chopped kalamata olives or hummus too!
If you don’t have rice with your greek chicken, then adding rice, roasted potatoes or roasted asparagus are great options.

Instant Pot Greek Chicken and Rice

Save this Recipe!
Ingredients
Chicken and Marinade
- 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- Juice from one lemon
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Chicken and Rice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium red onion chopped into large chunks
- 1 medium zucchini quartered
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth or bone broth
- Juice from 1 lemon
- 1 1/4 cups jasmine rice
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley optional
- 1/2 cup feta optional
Instructions
- Put chicken and marinade ingredients in a freezer bag or container and allow to marinade while you prepare the rest of the ingredients, at least 15 minutes or overnight.
- While it’s marinating, heat 2 Tablespoons of olive oil to a 6qt Instant Pot and on saute mode. Once it’s hot, add the chicken, discard the marinade, and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side to create a brown and crispy crust. You may need to work in batches of 2-3 to get the chicken crispy. Adding too much chicken to the pan at once can cause the chicken to steam rather than sear.
- When all the chicken is cooked, add it all back to the instant pot if you cooked in batches then add the chopped onion and zucchini and continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes. Add the chicken broth, lemon juice and rice and stir, then close the lid and cook on high pressure for 7 minutes. When it’s done, use a wooden spoon to turn the valve from sealing to venting to quick release the pressure. When it’s ready, open the lid and add fresh parsley, an extra squeeze of lemon and crumbled feta if desired.

What type of jasmine rice? I used regular and it was a pile of mush when it came out of the instant pot
Hey there! Yes, it’s regular. You could also try long grain white rice. Thanks!
Not sure what I did wrong but it turned out a like a thick soup and really under seasoned 🙁
The rice burnt before my instant pot could even get up to pressure, and the chicken couldn’t sear because of too many juices in the bottom of the pot. Not sure what I did wrong on these accounts.
Hey George! You may need to work in batches to sear the chicken next time. Also make sure you have enough liquid in the pot so you don’t get the burn notice.
What if you don’t have an instapot? Can you use a crockpot?
Hey Amanda! I haven’t tried this in the crock pot but I think you’ll have more success making it a one pot meal on the stove top. It would be similar to my hawaiian chicken!
I wish this recipe was made in a slow cooker , would love to try but not buying an instapot😔 we love many of your recipes❤️
Thanks Joan! I’m going to work on creating a stove top version of this because so many have requested it! So glad you love my recipes:)
Molly, you’ve been a lifesaver for me and my family! Our youngest son Has down syndrome, and we’ve chosen an anti-inflammatory, GF/DF Diet as a family. An extremely difficult transition for me, as we are a large family with some picky eaters. But by God’s grace, I eventually came across your cookbook from a Cbus friend. And from there, your blog and recipes on Pinterest. And a year later, I can say that at least a third of our favorite family recipes are from you! This was a new one that we tried tonight, and it was a BIG hit. I did double the spice (we like flavor super bold) and added black olives and sun-dried tomatoes at the end, with the feta. It was fantastic! Thank you, as always! You’ve blessed me and my family in so many ways. Just want you to know that.
Wow Laura! You have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. It means a lot that I can be a small part in making the transition easier. Grateful you took the time to share!
The first time I made this there were rave reviews from family and there were zero leftovers even from my picky daughter in law. They asked me to make it again 2 days later to freeze for lunches. I’ll double the batch and marinate the chicken longer. Great recipe!
Thank you! That’s such a compliment!
Can you make this in a crock pot or oven?
Hey there! I haven’t tried this in either so I can’t say for sure, but I definitely think you could do it on the stove top. Similar to my one pot hawaiian chicken recipe. Hope this helps!
This was delicious! I was hesitant anbout adding the rice and I did get the burn signal. Added some more broth and burn signal again but chicken seemed done. Definitely loved the addition of Kalamata olives , parsley and feta.
Thanks, Anne! I’ve never got a burn signal from this recipe! What kind of rice did you use?
This was my first ever instant pot recipe and it was delicious!! My chicken was a little tough- any tips?
Hi Anne,
You may need to deglaze the pot before starting the pressure. Try adding some of the broth and scraping all the cooked in bits from the bottom then add the remainder and the rice. I have had this issue in the past and that was the solution that worked for me!
I wanted to like this because it seemed like a quick an easy weeknight meal, but is was just OK. Rice was too wet and soggy and the zucchini gets overcooked and mushy.
Hey Erin! I appreciate your feedback. I haven’t had that experience with this recipe, but totally understand if this recipe isn’t for you!
Easy, fast and delicious. Used spinach instead of zucchini- added after instant pot finished. Put hummus on in a circle. Put meal on top- sprinkled feta cheese on and sliced olives!
This sounds amazing with spinach and hummus! Yum!
These flavors are delicious, especially the marinade! The rice came out pleasantly sticky but not overcooked. I made a half batch in my mini (3 qt) Instant Pot and decreased the broth to 2/3 cup, which was perfect. I like my zucchini just barely crisp-tender, so I added it at the end and let it sit on “Keep Warm” for a few minutes. I also added fresh basil because I had some on hand. Thank you for this lovely recipe–will definitely make it again!
Thanks so much, Katie!
I have been doing my chicken and rice with peas/carrots, broth, cheddar and ranch dressing for so long that it’s gotten old. This Greek style chicken and rice has brought it back to life! Added black olives at the end with a cucumber side salad. Perfect
So glad you liked it!! Thanks!
I’m gonna try this recipe. It looks delicious.
Hope you love it!
When cooking in the sauté mode, do I leave the top off? I’m new. Don’t judge me. lol.
Yes, leave the top off!!
I made this for my family last night, and it was a huge hit! Honestly, we were a little skeptical when we opened up the instant pot because it looked quite mushy, but the flavor and texture is excellent! This recipe has comfort food vibes without the heavy dairy element. Glad I doubled it because we love the leftovers too. Will definitely be making again!
Love that, Morgan! So glad to hear it!
Hi! Curious if you adjusted the cooking time with doubling the recipe. Thinking to do the same thing! Thanks!
You shouldn’t have to adjust the time when double!:)
Tasty, simple and healthy dish! My only suggestion would be to drain the marinade before searing – my chicken was quite wet when I went to sear and immediately started to steam. I pulled it out, drained all the chicken and it browned up beautifully. This is definitely going in the weekday rotation, thanks Molly!!
Hi Olivia! Yes, you always want to drain any marinade before cooking. I don’t add the marinade to the chicken in this one. I’ll make a note of that in the recipe to make it clear though! Appreciate the feedback. So glad I mate it in the rotation! Such a compliment.
Family favorite and staple!
I was a little skeptical if my family would like this but they loved it! I don’t have an instant pot so I just made the rice in my rice cooker with the chicken broth and lemon juice and cooked the marinated chicken and onions on the stovetop. It was amazing! Will definitely make again.
Thanks, Monika! Love this variation. I’m glad you shared so others can try it this way. Thanks!
This was so delicious. My family loved it!
Such a compliment when the family loves it! Thanks!
Its a hit! Kids loved it and I used all of the marinade and used a pan for the chicken before transfering to the instapot. Seemed to work out well.
Easy to mak. and delicious! Love it. Thank you.
You’re welcome, Lara!
I am absolutely blown away by all of your recipes. I’m pretty sure I have printed out at least half of your recipes on this website 😂 this dinner is a massive hit in my family. Thank you for always providing delicious recipes. Keep them coming. ❤️
Wow, thank you so much!!! This means a lot! I’ll keep them coming for sure:)
How do I make this on the stove? I don’t have an instapot.
Hey Lisa! I haven’t tried this on the stove so I can’t confidentally give you instructions, but I would approach it similar to my one pot hawaiian chicken recipe (https://whatmollymade.com/hawaiian-chicken-with-coconut-rice/). I also have a sheet pan greek chicken recipe if you want to try that instead!
I have made this more than any other recipe I’ve found on the Internet. This is one of my favorite dishes ever! I leave out the zucchini and it is still so wonderful and tasty.
The recipe was fantastic! I just wanted to give you a heads-up that there is a typo in the recipe card You say chicken things instead of thighs. Obviously, it doesn’t change the recipe or how delicious it was, but I am a new blogger and I would want someone to tell me. That being said, I made this for my family tonight and It was a huge hit. We added Kalamata olives because we love them, but other than that we followed the recipe exactly
Thanks, Holly! I just made that change! Glad your fam loved it.
I read 7 min in instapot then 10 somewhere else ?
This was good, but it’s missing something. I’m thinking chili flakes, but not sure. It is very lemon forward and I LOVE lemon.
A few suggestions after reading the reviews.
1) I used a sifter to drain the chicken after marinating. This really helped with browning and I cooked in 3 seperate batches.
2) I took the chicken out once cooked, added a little chicken broth from the recipe to scrape up the drippings. This helps to not burn. I sautéed the Zucchini and red onion as well. Just like the recipe said though and I did not do, saute the Zucchini and onion together for about 2 mins. If I would have done that then the veggies wouldn’t have been so soft.
3) make sure once you put the rice in that the liquid covers the rice. It doesn’t have to be submerged, but definitely touching liquid.
I made asparagus on the side, so good!!!
Husband LOVED it! Had seconds.
I feel like the marinade should have more flavor. Maybe balsamic vinegar instead of red wine vinegar.
I substituted quinoa for rice and it was great! Some on the bottom kinda carmelized, not burned but a darker color and those grains didn’t open fully. I might try to reduce the cooking time from 7 min to 1-2 min for next time but we really enjoyed this one pot meal!
Love to hear that, Kara! Thank you!
Adding crumbled feta to the top makes the dish!
I made this for the first time today and it was so easy and delicious! As a new mom I’m always looking for quick and healthy recipes, this was a hit! The rice came out perfect and the flavors were great. Thank you so much!
My family loves this. It always turns out great, and I almost always have everything I need. I have even added spinach at the end for more veggies and it’s been great!
Followed the recipe and it was delicious! I used chicken thighs and 1 1/2 cups broth. Very healthy and satisfying.
Can you do this as a freezer meal?
Hello! You can freeze the cooked dish in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat!
How hard would it be to double the recipe? Would it change the cooking times or liquid amounts?
Absolutely delicious! We topped with tomato-basil feta, and the whole family loved it
Hi. How easy or difficult would it be to double this recipe? Would it affect any liquid to rice ratios or cook time? Thank you
Can you please clarify? In the blog part describing the recipe I don’t see where lemon juice is added before the pressure cooking but it is in the recipe. Also time to cook in blog post says 10 minutes but recipe says 7 minutes. Thanks!
Why are there no amounts for the ingredients?
Our family loves this recipe!
I added artichoke hearts from a can packed in juice /water ( not oil ) . Easy recipe and refreshing. I added a little extra herbs and garlic at cook time s felt like getting rid of all
Marinade might be too bland .🤷♀️.
My husband and I enjoyed it and I think I’ll add olives others suggested next time .
Thanks Cindi!
Has anyone ever made this on the stovetop or oven? If so, will you please share instructions? I am new to the Instapot, so I want to go with a safer route!
Hey Joy! I haven’t tried this on the stove top, but it’s probably pretty similar in instructions to our one pot hawaiian chicken with coconut rice. You could adapt that recipe with these ingredients! I would cook the chicken, remove it, add the rice then put the chicken back in and simmer covered for 20-25 minutes.
https://whatmollymade.com/hawaiian-chicken-with-coconut-rice/
We LOVE this recipe! It’s so good.
What about baby tomatoes
Whqt about baby tomatoes instead of zucchini 🥰
This was delicious! I used broccoli instead of zuchinni but it was soo good 🙂
Ohhhh I’m going to have to try broccoli next time! Yum!
I did a few things differently than the recipe
1. After i sauted the chicken I put the zucchini (diced) and onions in to saute on their own than set them aside while the rice and chicken cooked together.
2. I did the 1:1 ratio for the rice and cooked my basmati for 6 minutes.
Tured out. Maybe slightly bland but in a bowl with tzatziki and Naan it was yummy
Followed instructions except added 5 minutes of natural release time after the cook time and then manually released pressure. Consistency was more of a gumbo then in the photo but was still very delicious.
My zuchinni nearly disintegrated and I did rinse my rice prior so wonder if thats why its a bit “wetter” than the photos
I subbed ground turkey and put all marinade ingredients into the instant pot. Then added everything else and this was so good!! Thankyou for the recipe!!
This is absolutely fantastic! Huge fan of the taste. I only marinated the chicken for an hour, for the rest I followed the recipe. I had regular long rice and cooked for 6 minutes. It’s so good!
I made this recipe while using my instant pot for the first time. My rice came out pretty crunchy, as if it wasn’t fully cooked. What do you recommend in this case? Repressurizinh and cooking longer? Turning on sauté mode until the rice is fluffy? Mine came out like watery soup
I’ve made this several times and my husband and I love it, but I have a problem with the rice not being cooked all the way. I follow the recipe exactly, and each time the rice isn’t cooked completely. Any tips?
I want to make this recipe for 15 people, but can’t imagine making it in the Instant Pot. Can it be made in the oven?
Mine came out with too much liquid as well. In addition it way too lemony for my taste. Wont be making this again; seems the reviews are accurate
Just made this last night and it was great! My hubby must have told me 3 times that he loved the dinner – ha! My son is a picky eater, so I love that the red onion sort of melted away and couldn’t be spotted, but gave great flavor. Will definitely be adding this to my rotation:)
Hi there! I was wondering, could I substitute the chicken breast for ground chicken breast?
Hello! Yes you could, but I would brown the ground chicken on saute mode first.
This recipe was a BIG hit at home! For some reason, I find cooking chicken breast to be challenging – even in the pressure cooker. I’m also still a bit of a novice with cooking…My chicken was dry. I didn’t overcrowd the chicken, but I did cook it with the marinade. I think I should have strained the chicken prior to cooking, and I steamed the chicken anyway? My jasmine rice came out a little mushy as well. The only other variable is I froze the chicken and cooked it from frozen. Would that have caused the chicken to overcook or the rice to be mushy?
Thank you so much for this recipe! I found it by accident, but I am headed to look at all your other recipes!
Hey there! Yes, you want to remove the chicken from any excess marinade prior to searing so it gets kinda crispy. Sometimes using frozen chicken withh create more moisture so that could be why the chicken wasn’t as crispy and the rice was more mushy. Usually overcooked rice is mushy. Hope that helps!
Anyone tried using Cauli Rice? Thoughts, Molly? Trying to get more veggies but also want the combined flavors!
Hey Hannah!! The cauliflower rice will take much less time to cook, so if you cook it with the chicken it will probably end up mushy. You could try cooking it separately and mixing it or cooking the chicken then turning the saute mode on after and cooking frozen cauliflower rice until it’s heated through. Hope that helps!
Can I cook the chicken from frozen?
Hey! I think so! You won’t get the crispy outsides from searing. It may take longer for the IP to come to pressure. You also may need to increase the cook time a few minutes because the whole chicken breasts will take longer to cook. Double check the internal temp of the chicken before eating it. Thanks!
I made this tonight and it turned out perfect. So delicious! I used basmati rice instead of jasmine as it was all we had in hand. Served with tzatziki and it was perfect! Thanks for the recipe
Thanks for taking the time to share, Rebecca! Love to hear that. It would be so good with tzatziki!
Can I make this with brown rice or wild rice?
Hey Laura! Yes you can make it with brown rice. However, the cook times will vary because brown rice takes a little longer! I would try adding 10 minutes to the cook time. Thanks!
What would be cooking time without the rice?
Do you stir the rice in once you add it to the pot before you close it and turn it on to pressure cook, or do you just add it on top and close the lid then proceed?
That’s a great question, Lauren! You can stir the rice before closing the lid. I’m going to update the recipe to note that. Thanks!
I feel like videos would help those of us who are new with insta cookers and recipes.
I agree, Alisha! We have been doing a lot more videos and have a lot of new videos with the Instant Pot. If you search “Instant Pot” on the site you should see some with videos!
Is Minute Rice ok?
Do I use Minute Rice?
In the directions in the top it says pressure cook for 10 minutes and at the bottom it says 7 minutes. How long is the pressure cook time?
Loved this recipe and I will be adding it to our family meal plan! Simply DELICIOUS!
One of my favorite meals ever.. so easy! I make it all the time.
This is the best! Thank you Angela!
This might be a silly question, but I would be using dry rice, correct? And not cooked rice?
Hey Emily! Yes, dry, uncooked rice!
Turned out great! I mixed everything together, then put the rice on top and didn’t stir it in. That way it won’t burn on the bottom. I also didn’t pre’sear the chicken as I was trying to hurry and get dinner done – it was amazing!! I didnt have zucchini so I stirred in two cans of drained, quartered artichoke hearts when it was all done cooking. Yum yum yum!!
I made this recipe a few weeks ago and it was AMAZING! Thank you so much for sharing. I’m hoping to make this again tonight and am wondering if you may have any recommendations in terms of liquid/time adjustments if I wanted to sub brown rice?
Love to hear that, Markie! Brown rice takes a little longer to cook in the IP. I would buy the minute(instant) brown rice and use that with the same cook times. If you use long grain brown rice it will take closer to 20 minutes and you’ll end up with overcooked chicken!
Tried this recipe out last night to meal prep it as my lunches for the week and am very impressed! It has great flavor and leaves me feeling full but not bloated. I was worried that the texture wouldn’t turn out right after reading some reviews but I followed the recipe to a T and it turned out perfect! My first batch of chicken I put too much in and it started to steam so I took half out and poured some of the juices out and that seemed to fix it! After that I did much smaller batches of chicken and it went very smoothly. The only thing I would have liked is if there were more pictures of the process. I think I picked too large of a zucchini and don’t think my cuts were how they should have been for the onion or zucchini. A picture right before you seal the lid showing what the liquid to rice/chicken ratio could have been helpful too so that you could add or take out more liquid if need be before sealing but I’m a big visual person so maybe thats just me. Regardless thank you for sharing I will definitely be making again!
Hi Christine! Thanks so much for sharing this! I love the idea of adding in more step by step images. I’ll put it on my list to do!
I made this tonight and was a bit disappointed. I would recommend using 1 1/2 cups of broth rather than the 2 1/4 cups in the recipe. It turned out not necessarily soupy, but definitely more like a gumbo texture. I was hoping for more of a typical rice texture. I also added the last of the lemon juice at the end of cooking, I don’t think that was mentioned in the instructions.
Sorry to hear that, Emily! I really appreciate your feedback. I’ve taken some of the comments here and decided to retest the recipe with less cooking liquid and a shorter cook time. It turned out great and I think that should fix any issues with a more soupy texture that anyone may have. I hope you give it another try!
Hi, I’m getting ready to try this recipe this week. Are the amounts listed on the recipe now, updated since you retested the recipe? Just reading through comments, and want to prepare this in a way that produces “typical” rice texture. Not gumbo-ish. 😉 Thanks!
I tried this recipe twice and both times the rice burned the pot and it wasn’t able to pressure cook. I think next time I’ll do the rice separately
Flavor was delicious! The feta adds the perfect touch on top. My kids (including a 10 month old baby) all gobbled it up.
I did have some trouble with the rice. Mine was undercooked, so I closed the top and added 2 min then did another quick release. I did get the burn notice and the bottom burned a tad but the rice was cooked and had a great texture after that.
I will for sure make it again, and add 1/4 cup water and 2 min to the cooking time.
What is the serving size in cups? Or ounces
It’s about 1 1/2 cups per serving.
This is SO GOOD!!! I doubled the recipe and used chicken thighs. I sautéed my chicken in a pan, browned it, then added it to the instant pot after sautéing the zucchini & onion in there for a few min. It was so creamy and delicious, like a healthy comfort food. I added more salt and pepper right before closing the IP lid. Don’t omit the feta or parsley! I will be making this all the time!
When do I add the second lemon juice to the pot, with the chicken broth and rice?
If I wanted to cook just the chicken without the rice would I need to change the cook time or any of the ingredients? Thanks! Cant wait to try this for work lunches this week!
Came out great, used only 1 and 3/4 cups of chicken broth and the texture was like a risotto, which was a big hit, I would recommend going down to 1 1/4 cups or even 1 cup if you don’t want it that creamy
Not sure what went wrong but I followed the recipe to a T. I thought it was too much liquid for the rice/liquid ratio, but followed it anyway. The whole thing turned out like soup. And the chicken definitely didn’t get a nice golden brown sautéing it in the IP. The zucchini was mushy and everything was just kind of bland. This was a bust for me unfortunately.
Sorry to hear that, Danielle! Sometimes if the instant pot is overcrowded the chicken will steam instead of getting crispy. You could give that a try next time! I’m going to update the recipe to mention that. What kind of rice did you use? I’ve made this several times and never had it be soupy so I’m wondering if that could make a difference. Thanks for the feedback!
I used brown jasmine. I have the largest instant pot so it wasn’t too crowded. If I make it again I’ll try adding less liquid and see if that helps at all.
Sounds good! Thank you!
Super flavorful but my jasmine rice was mushy. Not sure what I did wrong.
SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME! CONFUSED…
I’m confused too! Traditionally the ratios of water to rice are double, so 2 cups of water for 1 cup of rice. That’s the ratio this recipe follows. I’ve made this several times and not experiences that result. I will give this another try again and see if there are any tips I can share!
Instant Pot recipes should be a 1 to 1 water to rice ratio instead of the typical 2 to 1
I agree. That would make more sense for this recipe!
I also ended up with soup. I am disappointed because the food smells amazing, but is essentially inedible. Next time I’ll cook everything separately and mix together because I do think this recipe sounds amazing.
Sorry to hear that! I’ve made this several times and not experienced a soupy texture. Would love to hear any questions you have!
I had the opposite problem! I got the burn message and it’s ruined
Sorry to hear that! There are a few troubleshooting tips you can do if you ever get the burn notice. You can open it, scrape the bottom, add some more liquid and continue cooking. Thanks!
Can this be done in a slow cooker?
I haven’t tried this in the slow cooker, but I think you could do it! Just sear the chicken on the stove first to get it crispy. Try cooking it on low for 2 – 21/2 hours!
Do you have to use squash? I have a picky husband ?
No you can omit the zucchini! We didn’t have any the last time I made it and it was good without!
Why not just allow your husband to pick it out, he is an adult ?. We make our eat kids what is served, the adults should do the same unless it’s a birthday meal.
I just luv your recipes I’m trying to stay heathy and eat good my cholesterol is high so I’ll defenatley follow you thank u ?
Thanks, Gloria!
