A collection of Gluten-Free Instant Pot dinners that the whole family will love! Plenty of Paleo, Vegan, and Whole30 recipes that can all be made in your Instant Pot!
*This post has been updated to include 5 new Instant Pot recipes! Because 30 is better than 25, right??
Perhaps the Instant Pot was one of the gifts you received this holiday season and you’re wondering where the heck to find some good recipes that the whole family will love? You’ve come to the right place my friends. I’ve told so many people time and time again how much I love my Instant Pot. It saves me time, and this mama is always looking for short cuts. If you’re still in the market for an Instant Pot, this is the one I use from Amazon.
On Christmas Eve, we came home from our Candlelight Church Service around 6pm. Dinner wasn’t even started yet, but yet I was able to pull out my Instant Pot and make the most delicious Cheddar Broccoli Potato Soup ever! (recipe below) The husband was seriously impressed that dinner was on the table before 6:30. He made the comment, “wow, that thing really is magic.”
In January, we’ll be doing a round of Whole30. I am not sure how I would be able to do it without my Instant Pot! In the midst of Whole30, we’re also moving. So yes, the Instant Pot is going to save my life. Good thing we’re only moving around the corner, and I’ll literally have eyes on the Instant Pot the entire time. It will be the first appliance I move to my new kitchen! Speaking of Whole30, I have color coded all of the recipes below.
