 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.

Breakfast

Get your family off to a great start in the morning using your Instant pot for breakfast. Here are some great recipes from THM bloggers that include eggs, steel cut oats, breakfast grains and even coffee cake!

Meal Prep

One thing I love about the Instant Pot is that it’s wonderful for prepping meal ingredients ahead. Some great meal prep ideas are steamed hard boiled eggs, shredded beef, shredded chicken, turkey breast, beans and rice.

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.

Dinner in the Instant Pot

Making dinner in the Instant Pot is one of my greatest joys. I can usually create a one pot dish that the family enjoys. It takes less time, there’s less mess and fewer dishes. Let’s face it, who doesn’t love fewer dishes to wash!

Desserts

Desserts are so much fun to make in the Instant Pot. The cheesecakes are so creamy and you don’t have to worry about them burning or becoming dried out. My favorite cheesecake pans are the Instant Pot Silicone Springform Cake Pan with Tempered Glass Base Bottom and the Fat Daddio Cheesecake Pan with a removable bottom.
