By 13 Thanksgiving Recipes You Can Make in an Instant Pot
The biggest obstacle I face on Thanksgiving is my limited oven space. As soon as I start roasting my big turkey, I have about one shelf left to devote to the many, many sides and desserts I know my guests will be expecting when they arrive. In the past, I’ve relied on my slow cooker to help me get dishes on the table when my oven is occupied, but this year I have another partner in crime: My Instant Pot is going to help me save oven space, pick up the pace, and get all of my favorite classic T-Day recipes on the dinner table.
If you’re wondering if there’s anything an Instant Pot can’t do, the answer is no, and these 13 Thanksgiving recipes prove that. Here, you’ll find quick and easy ideas for all of your Thanksgiving favorites, whether you’re a big fan of sweet potato casserole, or mashed potatoes are your thing. Heck, there’s even a super speedy recipe for a turkey—instead of four hours in the oven, it only needs one hour in your Instant Pot. With some help from this gadget, you might even finish cooking everything before your guests even show up.
