Okay everyone I am so excited to share this post with you! I recently invested in a new kitchen appliance called the Instant Pot. It arrived via FedEx today! I first heard about it on Good Morning America. After reading about 1000 customer reviews, almost all positive, 

I decided to get one for myself. What is this Instant Pot you ask? 

The #InstantPot is a multi-cooker that does the job of a slow cooker, electric pressure cooker, rice cooker, steamer, yogurt maker, sauté/browning pan, and warming pot. It's a single appliance that does the job of seven different kitchen appliances. You can even make cakes in it! 😀 This appliance is going to cut my cooking time in half! ( Winning! ) And I will be able to do my canning with it this fall! I should have gone for the 8 quart model, but got the 6 quart one instead. 

Needless to say I am one happy camper with my Instant Pot! If you decide to get something new for yourself and your kitchen, get yourself an Instant Pot! You won't be sorry.

I made my first recipe in it tonight. I made a pot roast with potatoes, carrots, onions & celery. Which normally used to take me around 3 hours to prepare in the oven. 

I pressure cooked it in the Instant Pot and it only took 45-50 minutes...with an extra 10 more minutes for the veggies which you add last. Let me just say the roast was falling apart and so juicy! And the vegetables were so tender. Everything was absolutely delicious! 😀
