Today I’m putting two of my favorite things together-keto and the instant pot. Well, more specifically keto instant pot recipes, but that doesn’t sound nearly as poetic.
Y’all know how I feel about the keto diet. It’s my jam. I’ve lost over 145 pounds, and I have maintained that weight loss for six years. I wrote a book that details my weight loss journey, Rebel Keto, which includes over 100 recipes and is available now. Download the ebook or order your copy here! The keto lifestyle is legit. But today I want to focus on how these healthy, low carb Instant Pot recipes can help you lose weight!
About The Instant Pot
In case you haven’t heard, an Instant Pot is a multi-tasking cooker that does the job of a crockpot/slow-cooker, electric pressure cooker, rice cooker, steamer, saute & browning pan, yogurt maker, and warming pot. All in one!
Instant Pots offer a more convenient energy efficient way to cook. (Electric pressure cookers are the second most energy-efficient cooking appliance. Microwaves are #1)
Weight Loss
The Instant Pot may be your new best friend and secret weapon on the keto diet. While it can’t force you to make healthy choices, it can make cooking healthy ketogenic meals at home super easy. And affordable!
Most of these keto instant pot recipes yield leftovers which means you will get a couple of dinners and maybe lunch for the following day!
All of this is fabulous, but my favorite thing about the Instant Pot is how fast it cooks everything!
For example, my Instant Pot DUO cooks a chicken thigh recipe that takes 6-8 hours in the slow cooker in 30 minutes. Boom. Instant Pot Gratification. Also, a big win for folks who wait until the last minute to answer the What’s for Dinner question that haunts every woman- everywhere.
Ready for me to shut up & give you those keto Instant Pot recipes? Fair enough. Whether you’re a meal planner or a last-minute Mama, these keto diet pressure cooker recipes will save you time and keep your diet on track! Enjoy!
Oh, and more thing and I promise I’ll shut up stop writing – you can find even more keto Instant Pot recipes for every meal here.
75 more to be exact:) Don’t worry about saving those now. I’ll link it up again at the bottom of this post!
