8 Must Try Instant Pot Recipes - delicious healthy low calorie recipes

Have I mentioned how much I love my Instant Pot?

So you may be asking, well what on earth is an Instant Pot?

It is seriously the best kitchen gadget I have purchased. I would even put it above my actifry and that's saying something.

I love this thing so much, that I almost use it EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.

It seriously tops every kitchen appliance I have ever bought.

It is basically a 7in1 cooker, and it slow cooks, pressure cooks, sautes, has settings for soup, chilli, rice, porridge and even makes yoghurt.

Since I purchased it, you will probably have noticed many instant pot recipes appearing right here on Slimming Eats. I must admit I have been using it more than my actual stove, especially in this cold winter months, as it is perfect for all those comforting hearty meals.

I've also purchased some additional add on's to make cooking in it all the easier, such as this Instant Pot 5 Pieces Accessories Kit

Instant Pot Tempered Glass Lid for when I want to use it as a slow cooker - it's not a necessity, but means you can see in the Instant Pot when you are slow cooking, unlike the usual lid for pressure cooking.

as well as some spare Instant Pot Sealing Rings, again these are not really needed, but as I cook a lot of curries and things in my Instant Pot, it's handy to have a spare sealing ring, for when cooking sweet dishes etc, as the sealing ring can often retain some of the aromas from what was cooked previously.

I like that these come in two different colours, as I can keep one colour for savoury dishes and the other for sweet.

Lastly, because I use my Instant Pot so frequently, I often have plenty of leftovers to freeze. So some sturdy good quality Glass Food Containers with lids are handy.
