by Mia Bachmaier, Mike McColl

Fast, no-fuss (and quick clean-up) recipes for the millions of people who are obsessed with the new pressure cooker that Bon Appetit says “will change your life—no joke” Pioneered in Canada, new programmable electric pressure cookers, like the Instant Pot, are safe, easy to use and so popular that they are quickly becoming a staple in kitchens around the world. Food cooks more quickly—soups are ready in minutes, not hours, and still have that long-simmered flavour. One-pot meals are a breeze and weeknight dinners are fast and simple without the morning hassle of a slow-cooker. Plus, everything tastes better because with a sealed pot and no little evaporation, flavour stays in your food. Instant Favourites features more than 100 recipes from morning to night including soups, sides, mains, pasta, desserts, sides plus vegan/vegetarian options for Meatless Mondays. With stunning photography, Instant Favourites also has tips and tricks from two professional chefs (and busy parents) for getting the most out of your pressure cooker.

A nice range of recipes from the quick and easy to the more labor intensive/fancy. I liked that there were optional building block recipes, like the garlic confit which is now sitting in my fridge to be used as needed, but not required. The notes at the bottom of many of the recipes (you can substitute ___ or this goes great with ___) were also nice.
