If soup is your jam, Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup is a must-try. With wholesome ingredients like Idaho^® red potatoes, shredded chicken, egg noodles and veggies like onions, carrots and celery, this soup is more like a hearty stew, especially as its seasoned with spices like marjoram, thyme, sage and parsley. And, the best part about soups and stews is that they always seem to taste better the second day, so don’t be shy to double the batch! Pro tip: If the soup becomes a little too thick, add a few tablespoons of water or chicken broth to thin it out.

The aroma of these Mexican Poutine Smashers with Barbacoa from food blogger Nicole Presley at Presley’s Pantry will summon your little witches and wizards to the kitchen even before the table is set. These ghoulish tater stacks are made with Idaho^® fingerling potatoes, barbacoa, olive oil, Oaxaca cheese and sea salt and are great to fill up on before indulging in sugary treats. The barbacoa portion of this recipe will yield extra meat, so you can use it to make tacos for your fang-tastic feast or store it in the freezer for later. We recommend making the barbacoa in advance as it will need to be cooked on low in the slow cooker for at least 10 hours.
