What Is An Instant Pot?
An Instant Pot is a device that cooks food in a fraction of the time. It can cook meat and vegetables in a matter of minutes or even seconds with steam.
Are you ready to create the ultimate 12-month blueprint for reaching your health & weight loss goals this coming year?
Our free on-demand video training will walk you through how to make 2024 THE year you set health goals…and keep them.
The Instant Pot was invented by Canadian product designer Michael Wang, who had the idea back in 1987. Wang used his skills as an electrical engineer to develop this device.
The Instant Pot was initially marketed only to Canadians, but it gradually became popular outside the country as well. You can buy one for as low as $60 on Amazon, making it perfect for anyone who wants to save time and money!
How Does An Instant Pot Cook So Fast?
The Instant Pot combines the cooking power of a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, and yogurt maker in one kitchen appliance. The timesaving kitchen gadget eliminates the need for you to purchase these appliances separately.
An Instant Pot cooks food significantly faster than other cooking methods. It uses up to 70% less energy than a conventional oven and helps you save time and money.
What Does 5:20 Mean?
Have you ever wondered why do all official images from Instant Pot have 5:20 on the clock?
When you say “5-2-0”out loud in Mandarin, Wang’s native language, it sounds like the phrase “I love you.â€
“It’s a subliminal message,”Wang says. “It shows how much we care about our customers.â€
Why Every One on the Keto Diet Needs an Instant Pot
You might have noticed that a lot of people are raving about the Instant Pot. Well, it’s because you’re really going to love it once you try it!
You can have an amazing low-carb and keto dinner on the table fast – often in less than 20-30 minutes. If you love your slow-cooker, you will become obsessed with your Instant Pot. You’ll get all that awesome flavour but in a fraction of the time!
The only problem is, there aren’t a lot of low-carb and keto Instant Pot recipes out there. Have you noticed that most Instant Pot recipes are for carb-loaded pasta, rice, risottos, and casseroles?!
To make it easier for you, I compiled this list of Instant Pot keto recipes from both my own site as well as my fellow low-carb websites. You’ll find everything from bone broth to chicken thighs and so much more! Trust me, these one pot meals are soon to be on your weekly rotation.
By the way, there are a lot of different Instant Pots on the market. Unsure which to get? Check out my guide to picking the perfect Instant Pot.
Why I Love My Instant Pot
I love my slow-cooker and fought the urge to buy yet-another-kitchen-gadget.But there are three reasons why I finally caved in and bought an Instant Pot.
- It is 7appliances in one. A slow cooker, pressure cooker, steamer, yoghurt maker and frying pan, just to name a few.
- It will cook dinner in 30 minutes rather than slow-cooking all day (a lifesaver for the days I forget to pop the slow cooker on in the morning rush).
- You save money. It will turn any cheap cut of meat into a luxurious, tender, flavoursome meal.
It’s worth noting that there are a lot of different accessories out there for the Instant Pot too! Before you start adding them to your cart, however, I strongly suggest you read this guide to the 10 best Instant Pot accessories that are keto-friendly.
Can I Cook Frozen Meat in the Instant Pot?
If you are a meal prepper with a full freezer, you’ll be thrilled to know that chicken recipes can be cooked from frozen.
Beef can also be cooked from frozen with ease – and will turn out absolutely delicious.
Now, let’s dive into the Instant Pot keto recipes!
