Instant Pot Dinner Recipes

Five kids you guys… yes, it was a shock to me too when the ultrasound of my last pregnancy showed two babies in my womb. I already, thought I had my hands full with 3, but just as soon as I believed I had the hang of things (about 7 months), we got pregnant with number four and five. Since that time, my world has sort turned into a well functioning  day care. I went from working all day from home (with no kids) to working all day form home with three kids in diapers.

When I dreamed of five kids (during those glorious 9 months of pregnancy), the first thing I thought would go would be our well prepared dinners. You know what, they haven’t gone. You want to know more. They have actually only improved. Both in health and in quality.  I discovered two things. First the slow cooker, for preparing a meal in the morning and letting it cook all day. and I discovered the pressure cooker, aka the Instant Pot for the last minute 5 minute prep!
