Ever since my friend Kaitlyn posted about this Chicken Bacon Chowder she made I’ve been dying to convert this recipe for our allergies. Gluten, dairy, soy, tree nuts, peanuts, pork, and preservatives plaque our household. This is so delicious I know it will be a winter staple in our home. 🏡 Chicken Bacon Instapot Chowder ingredients: 8 cloves…
Knowing God
