4. Close and lock the lid and turn the pressure valve to sealing. Select Pressure Cook (high) and set the time for 3 minutes.

6.When the cook time is complete, quick release the pressure, and remove the lid. Stir. Drain any excess liquid from the pot.
7.While your noodles are still hot, stir in spinach and basil. Once the leaves have wilted, stir in your blended cottage cheese and grated parmesan. Serve immediately. Garnish with additional parmesan and fresh basil.
Ingredients:
3 cups white chocolate chips
1 Tbsp coconut oil
4 cups multigrain Cheerios
4 cups rice Chex cereal
2 cups pretzel sticks
1 cup roasted cashews, optional
1 9oz bag peanut butter m&m eggs
1 cup pastel milk chocolate m&m’s
1/2c shredded sweetened coconut
extra white chocolate chips for topping
Directions:
1.Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each, until the chocolate is melted. Note: if you don’t have coconut firm up a bit more, but it’s not 100% necessary!
2.Mix in Cheerios, Chex, pretzel sticks and cashews on the baking sheet. Toss them gently. Add on half of each version of m&m’s. Drizzle the mixture all over with the white chocolate. Use a spatula or large spoon to gently (and somewhat quickly) toss the mix together, until all of the pieces are coated. Sprinkle in the remaining m&m’s and gently toss once more. If desired, sprinkle the entire sheet with the shredded coconut. You can also sprinkle on more white chocolate chips if you wish!
3.Let the mixture set for 20-30 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl or jar that you can cover or a resealable plastic bag. You can definitely make this a day or two ahead of time!
