Welcome new group members! Tell us your story of weightloss using an Instant Pot.
Hello all, glad you are finding this group. I only got my pot for Christmas and it's become the most valuable appliance in my kitchen. I did not start this to lose weight, but it's been a side effect of a sort. I'm obsessing so much over cooking in the instant pot, looking up recipes, reading forums, that I'm not snacking…

Vegetarian Recipes?
Hey guys! Happy to have found this place. =D I love my instant pot, but it's hard to find vegetarian recipes for it (although I use it to cook perfect rice and to cook my dry beans, and it's very good at doing both of those things). Do you guys have any? =]

What was your biggest Instant Pot fail?
It happens to the best of us. My first fail was my first dish. Mac and Cheese. Burned on the bottom. It was my first time using it and I didn't realize that you couldn't set the pot to pressure cook with the cheese in it. Live and learn.
Cold Start Yogurt
I actually made yogurt yesterday. I used an 11.5 oz. bottle of Fairlife 2% milk and 1 tsp of Oui Vanilla yogurt. I sterilized all my utensils, bowls, and jars. Whisked 1 heaping tsp of the Oui yogurt with the whole bottle of Fairlife 2% until mixed well and I poured it into two 8 oz. jars evenly and screwed on the lids.…
Whole Chicken
We did a small (1.4 kg) roasting chicken in our 6 quart yesterday. It took 20 mins with about 5 mins natural release. We found it cooked more evenly than in the oven and it was very juicy.
