For anyone on the fence about the electric pressure cooker, you know you want one and I’m going to share a recipe tonight and another one tomorrow that will make you wish you had a pressure cooker! Seriously, both of these recipes can easily be made in the oven but they’re so much easier in the pressure cooker.
I have both the Instant Pot and the Cuisinart and I love them both for different reasons. What I love most about the Cuisinart is what would probably cause me to go with the Instant Pot if I could only choose one. The Cuisinart is non-stick and I like it but can already see that even with care, the finish isn’t going to hold up forever. The Instant Pot has pre-programmed settings like beans, yogurt, etc. that I really like too. I’m 100% happy with both of them and am surprised at how often I have them both going at the same time so I’ve never been sorry I invested in two of them.
Chicken & Rice
This afternoon Nicole and I were talking and she told me she was thinking about making this Chicken and Rice Casserole for dinner. I told her I thought we could do it in the pressure cooker and that I would try it tonight. I used what I had at home so this is how I made it:

That sounds really good.
I’m going to try it over the weekend, but instead of using frozen mixed veggies I think I will use broccoli.
Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s recipe.

How much do these pressure cookers roughly cost? You are starting to make me think I need one.
Judy Laquidara says
There are links to both of them in the post near the top. I’m thinking they’re close to $100 (each). There’s hardly a day that goes by that I don’t use mine.
Nicole has one and I took one of mine when I went to visit recently and several times, we had them both going at the same time.

Also bed bath and beyond carries them and if you have a 20% off coupon you can use it.
