My Love for the Instant Pot
If you’ve read any of my RV kitchen posts, then you’re very aware how much I used the Instant Pot while enjoying full-time RV life.
I talked about the Instant Pot here and here, oh and even did a recipe here.
The Instant Pot also made it in one of our TREKKN videos. You can catch it at around the 2:50 mark in the video below.
I was fairly late to the Instant Pot phenomenon because I just didn’t get what all the hype was about. But after finally purchasing one and using it on the road, I totally get why it’s perfect for RV travel.
Here are a few reasons I love it and why it was an essential RV kitchen accessory for me:
- It saves me time, cooking things way faster than on the stove
- Using the oven heats up the RV really fast and that’s miserable in the summer
- It’s only one pot I have to clean
- Rice turns out perfect every time
- Quinoa turns out perfect every time
- Potato soup turns out perfect every time
If you don’t have an Instant Pot yet and you’re shopping for one, I have the 6 qt. 6-in-1 version and it was plenty big enough and had enough bells and whistles for my family of five. I know others who swear by the 7-in-1 version solely for making yogurt. I’m not a huge yogurt fan, to begin with, so I didn’t see making it from scratch anywhere in my future. 🙂
