Easy Instant Pot Side Dish Recipes
I am loving my instant pot! It truly has changed dinner time around here. In the past if I forgot to menu plan or take something out of the freezer, that meant take out or the dreaded drive thru! That can add up fast and it’s not even that good let alone healthy! Since purchasing my instant pot, we rarely get take out. I can whip up dinner in no time even if the meat is still frozen. You can see the instant pot I use here but there are tons of other pressure cookers you can use too.
