So I have been wanting an instant pot for a while. I was debating on whether it was worth it or not. Finally decided I definitely wanted one. So put it on my list to Santa to make sure I got one. I was very specific on the model, too. Just to make sure Santa got the right one. Funny thing is in my old age I make sure to ask for what I want. So I got one...I was so "surprised". LOL. But it has sat here since Christmas until I had time to read up on it today and join a FB page about using it.
So I busted it out. Did the water test. Scrolled through recipes. Decided I did not want to do some basic recipe like soup so decided to try a pot roast. I followed the instructions and set it to cook. When it was time to get it out I was super nervous. I was fully prepared to order out in case it was an epic fail. (I have read several stories on epic fails.) So the good news is that it came out perfectly and it was so easy. Tasted way better than the crock pot recipes for pot roast. My husband loved it. I am so excited about trying future recipes. Possibilities seem endless. I think the part that makes it so exciting is that I can throw in frozen meat and still get dinner cooked pretty quickly. I sometimes forget to defrost stuff and then we have to scramble to figure something else out or go out to eat.
And in case your wondering, my other awesome Santa gifts were a Karaoke machine with discs, a pink exercise jump rope, and some cowboy boots. Santa is the best gift giver!
