5 EASIEST Things to Cook in the INSTANT POT

[@mfaithdrew]

Just found you today through a Six Sisters video with Kristen Halls. You are now first only IP recipe list as I e just started using mine this past 6 weeks after letting it sit in the box for almost a year (fear!). These videos give me the confidence to use my IP. Thanks so much!

[@Gramaron1313]

I watched you with Kristen make instant pot freezer meals and you had so many wonderful ideas I thought I'd jump on your channel and watch so thank you Kristen for recommending Karen when he hugs love God bless everybody

[@marthablann573]

I was looking for a recipe for Broccoli Cheddar Cheese Soup & found yours. I can't wait to make it. I have frozen Broccoli, so I am going to try that. I will let you know how it turns out. That recipe led me to this your sight, and I can't wait to try other recipes. Thank you for sharing with all with of us Pressure Cooker gals and guys! I have another brand, but works great!

[@stacys2981]

I want to tell you something, a lot of your recipes are healthy. My Instant Pot and Slow cooker has helped me lose weight. I’m on a good plan called Slimming World. Many of your recipes have helped me. In 8.5 weeks I have lost 27.9 lbs. Your recipes are helpful and are making it possible to drop weight and from here, I have 104 lbs to go. These 2 appliances plus the recipes complying with their program has finally started to make an impact on my weight. I know you don’t have a weight loss site but I am eating a junk free menu. Just had to thank you. I dropped a dress size.

[@adnacraigo6590]

So glad that you are making videos again to excite us about pressure cooking.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Thanks! Glad to be here!

[@johnshifflett1722]

I love this video. Didn’t know about the baked potatoes and I’m going to do that pot roast. Thank you

[@brichter4669]

Glad to see you back! I always put the hard beans in a bowl and search through them to find little stones. Pinto beans are especially prone to having stones in the bag. Then I rinse them really well. It is surprising how much dirt is dried onto the beans.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

I do that with dried beans also!

[@AhayahsDaughter]

Thank you I was about to comment that. And my family is from Jamaica so we always wash our rice as well

[@pennyinaz]

It's so good to see you back Karen. I hope you and your family are well. I just want to say thank you for your wonderful 355 Days of Pressure Cooking cookbook. I find myself going to it many times in a month. Everything I have made so far has been delicious 😃

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Thank you so much!

[@semco72057]

I have cooked so much in my 3 Qt. Instant pot and everything has come out like I expected it to. I have not cooked a roast in it yet, and have to try making it and see how it turns out. I thank you so much for sharing all your recipes with us all and God Bless.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Thanks so much!

[@sunflowerbaby1853]

Thanks for the basics.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

You're welcome!

[@jeffsond]

You got me started using my duo like crazy 6-8 months ago. I’ve really slowed down using it..👎. I love making a few things with it. 1. Hard boiled eggs, 2. Shredded chicken breast from frozen and 3 chicken wings. That’s all I’ve ever used it for really but those are great. Glad your back!

[@jasonleyba3362]

Six sisters sent me here , I have subscribed to your channel and notifications. I hope all is well with your husband. Thoughts and prayers your way.

[@raymondfornesjr1969]

Great recipes!!! Thank you!!! 👍👍👍

[@elbib908]

Thanks!

[@heartsaliveart]

Glad to see that you're back. I usually let my instant pot sit for a minute or two before releasing if I think there's going to be any foam

[@debbiedunham4619]

Thanks! I love love love my IP eggs! Quick, healthy snack & no one else takes them in my home, LOL!

[@karenbellessapeterse]

They really are the best!

[@azflower7748]

You've given me the courage to finally get some real use out of my IP. Thank you! I would love to find a really good recipe for a leek and potato soup made in the instant pot. Are you up for the challenge? :)

[@karenbellessapeterse]

For sure 👍👍👍

lets goooo i don't cook much in my instantpot because im lazy but im trying lol

[@karenbellessapeterse]

It’s good for lazy people!!!

[@gerryh3578]

For pot the pot roast. is it better to let the steam release naturally instead all at once? What's the trick to get the meat to have a soft and tender texture?

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Yes it is better for roast to do the natural pressure release.

[@eggmine130]

Good video, thank you.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Thanks!

[@god563616]

Amazing video thank you! What about if you have a potato button setting on your pressure cooker can you use that instead or still do manual? I have an Insignia from Best Buy and it's incredible!

[@karenbellessapeterse]

The pre-set buttons are alright but I prefer to pick the amount of time for the items I am cooking. That way if I have a small potato vs a large potato I can get it right.

[@catthecruisebrat3499]

Welcome back! I cannot make hard boiled eggs or beans any other way!

[@claudialandow1106]

Really enjoyed this video! It would help if the camera also showed the steam release button for each recipe so I can see what you are doing. Also, it worried me that you did not rinse the lentils. Do they not need to be rinsed and searched for little stones? Just wondering. And last, one thing I especially love making rice in the crockpot is that it doesn’t seem to stick to the bottom like my rice cooker does. I do put some cooking spray on the bottom. Maybe that makes a difference? Or maybe I don’t even need to do that. Thoughts?

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Yes sorry about the steam release. Will do that next time! I should have rinsed the lentils but I forgot! You make rice in a slow cooker? I bet the spray helps!

[@claudialandow1106]

@@karenbellessapeterse sorry, I meant Instant pot not the slow cooker! 🤦‍♀️

Is there a substitute for onion soup mix, my husband is allergic to onions.

[@nikkilangloismetroatlantaa4857]

Awesome video! I am new to your channel this is my first time ever watching your video and I loved it so much that I immediately subscribed. I will be purchasing an instant pot this week and the first thing that I will try is your pot roast recipe! I am a pot roast fanatic so I'm looking forward to testing your recipe. Can't wait to see other great recipes 😁

[@karenbellessapeterse]

So glad you got an IP! They are the best!

[@tikoy1955]

The pot roast looks awesome. I bet you can add onion rings too.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Yep! Good idea!

[@beckyhammond8225]

I always rinse rice and beans before I cook them.

[@pam34751]

Do you only do instead pot? Or can you give ideas for instead pot air fryer also...

[@karenbellessapeterse]

I just got the IP air fryer so I'll share some ideas soon!

[@jameshchetwyndjr9739]

I make chicken soup with cream cheese and pasta

[@karenbellessapeterse]

sounds awesome!

[@jameshchetwyndjr9739]

Chicken soup works even from frozen chicken. Set pressure cooker 30 minutes as want cooked chicken. Use cup of box chicken stock teaspoon better than bullion 1 big onion cut in quarters. When cooked add cream cheese and cook pasta on stove. Bout 1 cup

[@jameshchetwyndjr9739]

I use pressure cooker from QVC $15 month. Total $60 Good for spare ribs soups

[@gabyzepeda3348]

Do you have any rice recipes? I only make 4 types of rice. Plain white & brown rice, Mexican rice and fried rice.

I have not seen anyone show how to cook noodles, like spaghetti 😕

[@lealyons9264]

Break spaghetti in half. Layer it in sections like a + sign. Fill with water just enough to cover pasta. Cook 1min for soft or 00 yes 00 for more firm pasta. I use this method for all of my pasta.

[@karenbellessapeterse]

Are you looking for pasta dishes or just plain pasta?

[@CS-tk1ni]

@@karenbellessapeterse I bought your book, it is in shipping maybe it is in there. I am in my 60s and always cooked noodles in boiling water. I am wondering how to cook just noodles, since I make my own sauces and meat balls. 😊 thanks

[@antione]

Lmao you didn't rinse your rice or your beans, I had to stop the video I couldn't take anymore torture.

[@adnacraigo6590]

The white rice that we buy has vitamins and minerals sprayed on it at the mill because of the loss os nutrients when processed so they don't recommend rinsing rice. I do agree with on rinsing beans though.

[@anelmottley2630]

Beans r rinsed always before soaking, not sure what u r saying

[@brucehutchinson9527]

Beans rinse them first repeatedly then pressure cook them.

[@carynb3112]

You should always rinse your rice and beans first.
