15 Simple Pressure Cooker Recipes for Busy People

December 4, 2018 | Search Recipes Here

With each passing year, it seems like life gets busier and busier. Work commitments, social obligations, and family responsibilities all take a significant chunk of time out of our day. When time is short, we all seem to neglect our nutrition and reduce the amount of time we spend in the kitchen preparing meals.

As a result, the takeout menu gets pinned to the fridge, delivery services set to speed dial, and we relish the opportunity to enjoy convenience food wherever possible. However, this isn’t a healthy long-term nutrition strategy.

We decided to help you out and give you 15-recipes you can make with a pressure cooker and minimal effort. All it takes is a few minutes to prep these meals, then throw the ingredients in the Instant Pot and walk away for a few hours. Use your pressure cooker to create fantastic chicken, beef, and vegetarian meals.

1. Colombian-Style Vegetable Soup
