Oatmeal can be made in both the slow cooker and the Instant Pot. I especially like the way that steel cut oats turn out! Here are a few recipes that you might like to try:

I’ve been making breakfast casseroles in the slow cooker for years. I recently tried my hand at making one in the Instant Pot using the pot-in-pot method. It worked so well!

I want to make the sausage gravy but I will use “hot”, loose Italian sausage and add a few finely chopped jalapeños and serve it as a hot dip with fresh fried tortilla chips. What do you think?
Sounds like a winner to me!
Will your spiral bound cookbook for Instant Pot ever be back in stock? I really wanted a copy but can’t find one anywhere new or used!
