Antelope sausage meatball Italian wedding soup.
Incredible soup.
I have two Instant Pots, both are 6 quarts. I’ve made every one of these recipes and they really are awesome! I use my IP from 5 to 7 days a week. It still amazes me how quickly it cook and, after you set the time and the lid’s sealed one just walks away and lets the IP do its thing. Marv
Bookmarked these. I will try all at weekend and be back with reviews and ideas. Thanks for your sharing these recipes.
I almost cheered out loud when I saw you had a favorites list for Instapot. All the recipes I’ve tried here have been amazing. I can’t wait to try these!

I just got my Instantpot and it’s still in the box. I have not opened it yet. I’m was looking for some recipes to try and that’s how I found your website. I can’t wait to try all of them!
Let us know how you like them!
SOOOO excited to try these on my new Instant pot!
Just got a 3-Quart Insta Pot. If I halve a recipe that’s made for a 6-quart InstaPot, do I also halve the cooking time? Or just cook for 2/3 of the time? Or use the same amount of cooking time?
Hi Sherry! All recipes have been tested using a 6-qt Instant Pot. That being said, without further recipe testing, I cannot answer with certainty at this time. As always, please use your best judgment regarding substitutions and modifications.
I was just given a small IP, too. What have you found out about cooking times, please?
Thanks.
LOVE your website. Your pictures and recipes are beautiful and delicious. I just snagged an InstantPot during Amazon Prime Days. I will definitely be using everyone of these. Which one first? Struggling between Korean Beef and Butter chicken. Thanks!
That’s a tough choice. I love them both! 🙂
Wow. I’ll definitely be trying ALL of them!! Thanks for sharing!!
I don’t have an instant pot, can you recommend one to buy? Which one do you use?
Hi Vanessa! I use the Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt. It is available for purchase on Amazon.com here.
I don’t have an instant pot , can I use a saute pan with a lid and cook with on a low simmer ?
Unfortunately, every recipe differs so I cannot say with certainty. As always, please use your best judgment regarding substitutions and modifications. I also have hundreds of non-Instant Pot recipes you can try! 🙂
