The Big Book of Instant Pot Recipes: 240 Must-Try Dishes for Your Multi-Function Cooker

All the recipes in this book are delicious. This book was recommended to me by my sister-in-law who does catering. She said she has several Instant Pot recipe books, but this one is the best. I love every recipe in here that I’ve tried.

It is my mission to buy every legitimate pressure cooker cookbook I can because I love to collect them and having fresh new recipe ideas is fun and keeps things interesting. I’m also a sucker for big juicy cookbooks, so this was a must have. I think the price is fair and the book really does pack a punch with a diverse collection of recipes. While reading the reviews, I noticed many of them were written by people who received a free copy of the book in exchange for a review. This doesn’t delegitimize the reviews, but it does compromise them a little bit. In general, the book delivers on its promise. It’s a good size book. Each recipe is represented with a photo and the overall quality is pretty good for a soft cover. I wouldn’t classify the contents as inventive or all that interesting - but on a bright note, the recipes are approachable to just about any skill set. The recipes are simple, which is neither good nor bad. It’s possible to coax flavor out of good ingredients, no matter how few there may be, but short ingredient lists can also mean boring flavorless outcomes. The Zuppa Toscana recipe on page 217 looks like a good exception... it embodies all the flavors of our favorite Olive Garden soup and is a cinch to throw together. I guess it helps to have some culinary knowledge to be able to “taste” a recipe by reading it and discerning which will and which won’t work. I’m getting better at that all the time and trust my instincts more and more as I learn how to adapt a flavor profile to my own preferences. So the bottom line, will I cook from this book? Probably. Will I cook all 240 recipes? Unfortunately, no. Will you like this book? Depends on what you’re looking for. If you want fast, easy, simple recipes and aren’t expecting rapturous results, you’ll probably use the book. If you are hoping for magic, you may be disappointed. Is it worth the $20 price to sit on your shelf? I think yes. I’ve spent much more for and received far less from other pressure cooker cookbooks.

Love the variety in this cookbook. I have made about 12 of the recipes and have not been disappointed with any of them. I was a bit skeptical about the Minted Meat Loaf but it turned out to be a favorite. Who knew mint would taste so delicious in a meatloaf ! I learned about this cookbook from a friend and subsequently bought one for me and for my daughter. I have several instant pot cookbooks and this is by far my favorite !

Haven’t hit a bad recipe yet. I’m a busy stay at home mom of four. My main job is playing Uber driver and I’m always my busiest at dinner time. This cookbook has changed my life though. We are a family with a few that are dairy free and some that are grain free. I love that this tells what each recipe is or isn’t. The only thing I would change is listing how to make the recipes with dairy to be dairy free. Like let me know what a good substitute for cream would be.My favorite cookbook no matter.Love this even more not that we are on pandemic lockdown!

Great book I like all the recipes but I wish there were more things that were just singular rather than a whole meal or a whole dish things like artichokes which the book has but other things that I would like to cook individually. I have already use the book numerous times and absolutely love it

The recipes look amazing. Based on your taste preferences you can find some wonderful flavors within its pages. I have experimented here and there and look forward to more tummies in our tummies

If you have an electric pressure cooker of any kind you need this book. I tabbed so many recipes that I finally stopped and just left the book on my counter.

I would have asked a question in a proper format, but I couldn't find a place to ask. Are these recipes for a 3qt or 6qt Instant Pot? I only have a 3qt so I need to know if I should adapt the recipes.I do want to comment on the book. It's is beautifully done, easy to read and follow, well marked for gluten-free, dairy-free, etc. There are both elaborate and down-to-earth recipes. Can't wait to try some.

Like that there is a picture for each recipe. All the recipes i tried so far have come out perfectly.Recommend this book for sure.
