Platings and Pairings

Honestly, if you haven't used an Instant Pot to make your meals, you are missing out! Essentially, it's the slow cooker's more advanced cousin, with the main differences being that it's a pressure cooker and it cooks food quicker than a Crock-Pot — but you can also make rice or yogurt with it, and you can sauté with it, too. It's perfect for meal prepping, people who are short on time, and anyone who loves a home-cooked meal but doesn't want to be stuck in the kitchen all day.

No matter your diet, you can find Instant Pot recipes that will have people thinking you're the next Bobby Flay. And if you happen to be following a low-carb diet and haven't found any satisfactory meals, you definitely need to test out the ahead recipes. They're quick and full of flavor — that's what you call a win-win.
