@Bri369 @Mj12 

 

i love chili - takes time to brown the meat and cook the onions

but once that is done - i just dump in the rest of the ingredients and simmer

for at least an hour

 

I stir every so often - so good

@Mj12  I must say, I'm agreat cook. I've been cooking since I'm 10. A loooooong time.

I can cook anything and it's always great BUT nothing I make comes out good from the Instant Pot. Really nothing! I have some chicken breast from Ostco that people love. Not me. My husband and I find them to be awful. I'm going to throw them in the Instant Pot with some potatoes or rice, artichokes, onions, garlic, broth, maybe a tiny bit of tomatoes, seasonings, and whatever else I find in the fridge that I may think will go. Let's see how it comes out🙄. 

Good luck to you!

The weather here in the Pittsburgh area has been absolutely glorious! Beautiful blue sky,high 60's to low 70's, 40's at night. That inspired me to cook. Last week I made chili, a pot of beef vegetable soup, tuna casserole and Sunday I made a turkey breast. This week I won't cook Hubby is working 3-11. So I have all these really good leftovers and my son orders take-out yesterday and today. I don't get it.

I don't own any of the latest or rather any of the newish ways to cook.

 

Besides a stove, I got a 

microwave (heat stuff up only - not cook),

toaster oven to toast food but I don't consider it cooking, 

nuts, bread, reheating pizza or any foods that I like crispy 

 

No air fryer, pressure cooker, instant pot, george forman grill, crock pot

you get the point - 

 

I thought the Instant Pot was magic - so many raves for years

and people swear by them owning more than 1

 

I just dont have the room or rather if I not using it a lot - I dont want it

 

there are things I think about

ice cream maker - i'm happy with the supermarket - but hmmm people swear by homemade ice cream but will I continue to use it after a few times? probably not

@Yahooey, That blue pot is gorgeous.  And I love the rooster on the top.  True to me being me, if I had it I would leave it on the top of my stove for a “pretty,” but just like to admire it as a decoration.  

 

I hope you get this.  You deserve it.  WWPD?  Buy the pot!
