8 Must Try Instant Pot Recipes - delicious healthy low calorie recipes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have I mentioned how much I love my Instant Pot<\/a><\/strong><\/span>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So you may be asking, well what on earth is an Instant Pot<\/a><\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

I love this thing so much, that I almost use it EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It seriously tops every kitchen appliance I have ever bought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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<\/a><\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Instant Pot Tempered Glass Lid<\/a><\/strong> 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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

as well as some spare Instant Pot Sealing Rings,<\/a><\/strong> 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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like that these come in two different colours, as I can keep one colour for savoury dishes and the other for sweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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<\/a><\/strong> are handy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
