I have recently gotten into the world of the Instant Pot. A cult favorite, there are a ton of Facebook groups devoted to this little magic machine.
If you read my last post, you’ll see that I made rice in the Instant Pot. If you are anything like my roommate, you won’t be particularly impressed with this function. She has a rice cooker that cooks rice so obviously we don’t need another contraption that does rice.
I got her hooked though.
I used the Instant Pot to make pulled pork BBQ the other day and god was it good.
I followed the Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork recipe from Adventures of a Nurse. I can’t believe I had cooked a Boston Butt in under 90 minutes. What insanity I tell you!
This morning I woke up and used the instant pot to hard boil eggs. I have never had eggs that easy to peel in my life. I’m definitely taking this thing home for Christmas, because I will be doing deviled eggs with eggs I hard boil in the Instant Pot simply because something about cooking them in there makes them perfect and so easy to peel.
I give the Instant Pot 2 thumbs up and I can’t wait to try more things with it. I’ve found a group for the 21 Day Fix from BeachBody and it is full of Instant Pot recipes, so I’m going to try doing some stuff from there soon. I didn’t get a chance to leave the house yesterday to do a proper grocery haul, so that’s still on my to do list. I figured I wouldn’t actually get to working out or eating healthy until I got my school work done.
While everything else has been going on, I decided to take down some storage cubes that were rickety and held together with zip ties and replace them with a double hanging rod with shelves.
