The INSTANT Pot

“>IMG_20181124_201327_998.jpg

The instant pot is pretty much self-explanatory, it literally cooks anything almost instantly.  When i first stepped foot into the natural health world, i was trying to replace my cooking tools with healthier options.  I replaced my teflon cookware with ceramic and glass cookware.  Stainless steel and cast iron are wonderful healthy choices too.  I knew the instant pot was a great choice, because it keeps so much nutrition in the actual food instead of cooking it out.

I’ve got to admit though, i was scared of it. It sat in our kitchen for about 7 months.   I opened up the box and saw all these buttons and settings that I had NO CLUE what anything meant.  I ended up asking my husband to tell me how the thing would work and to explain it to me.  He did, and it wasn’t very scary anymore! When I bought my instant pot i received a manual with it.  It tells you the cook times and even has recipes.  The inside is stainless steel which is amazing.  No chemicals for this house.  I was super excited to start using this, because i was so tired of standing over the oven cooking multiple foods.

The very first thing I cooked was chicken thighs.  I put FROZEN chicken thighs in there and they were done in 11 minutes.  I’m talking fall of the bone, ready to shred consistency.  My husband and I were so excited and our mouths were literally wide open.   I’ve been in love with the instant pot since.  Here are a few things I cook regularly:

-Baby food. I cook veggies, and then combine in blender, and pour into a stainless steel ice cube tray and freeze.  Saves SO much money, and only you know exactly what is going into your baby.  Plus it’s just less processed which is golden.

-Chicken thighs

-Pinto beans (i like to soak overnight and then cook them for 40 minutes)

-Rice (cooks rice perfectly)

-Curry

-potatoes (regular and sweet)
