Instant Pot Recipes THM Style
If you are like me you love using your Instant Pot in your Trim Healthy Mama journey. The Instant Pot is great for breakfast, lunch, dinner, meal prep and desserts. Sounds crazy but I have actually found the need to have more than one Instant Pot. I have three favorites – the DUO80 8 quart 7 in 1, the DUO 60 6 quart 7 in 1, and the DUO60 Plus 60 9 in 1.

Instant Pot Side Dishes
Making sides in the Instant Pot is another great way to prep ahead or add a speedy side to your meal. I find having a second Instant Pot stainless steel liner is a blessing. It allows you to pull a meat dish from the pot and keep it warm while you fix a side dish or a quick veggie.
