With the madness of the holiday season nearly upon us, as well as the added stress of virtual schooling for some, managing activity schedules, and balancing work, it’s no wonder that meal planning may not be the top priority on your list. I, for one, usually think about dinner approximately twenty minutes before it’s time to cook.

That’s where the Instant Pot comes in. The Instant Pot is a multifunctional pressure cooker that doubles as the superhero of our kitchen countertops. It’s incredibly fast, and produces the most mouthwatering meals—at a fraction of the time. Perfect for meal procrastinators like me!
