Healthy Instant Pot Recipes

The electric pressure cooker, the Instant Pot, has made cooking healthy meals much easier in my house. From steel cut oats and hard boiled eggs for breakfast to rice pudding and cheesecake for dessert, the Instant Pot does it all.

I’ve put together a few of our family’s favorite Instant Pot recipes healthy and super easy to make too.
