The winner of the InstantPot is Doris B. who said…

  1. I do not own an instant pot, but have so many recipes that I would like to try. It would be nice to own one.
  2. I would love to get something on the table fast because I rarely make anything that takes too long. With an instant pot I would be able to try some things that I would not do the traditional way.
  3. Tonight, I am making chicken fried steak according to Marlene Koch. It is WW friendly, but time consuming, but it is one of my husband’s favorites.

Congratulations Doris. Please send an email to support@simple-nourished-living.com to claim your Instant Pot!


Confession: I still haven’t learned to use my instant pot (affiliate link) with regularity. So I’ve decided to devote what remains of 2020 to overcoming my resistance with a Challenge!

It’s been nearly two years since I assembled this list of 50 WW Friendly Instant Pot Recipes in response to requests from readers. At the time I admitted that while I have an Instant Pot, I used it mostly for it’s saute and slow cook functions. I promised myself I would learn to use all its other functions, especially pressure cooking. 

I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve made virtually no progress.  I know it would make life easier, especially with meal prep. But what they say is: A goal without a plan is just a wish.

So, I’ve decided to take the Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything (affiliate link) approach: I’m setting teeny tiny goal(s) for myself. 

Tiny Habits Instant Pot Challenge

  1. Learn something new about the Instant Pot every day (right after I read my morning devotional)  and record it here on My Getting Started with the Instant Pot Success Guide
  2. Use my Instant Pot once a week (Sunday afternoons) and share the recipe on Simple Nourished Living. 
  3. Celebrate these accomplishments. 

To kick things off I’m giving away the  Instant Pot (affiliate link) Multi-Functional Pressure Cooker I purchased several years ago:

  1. 1) I would love to win the Instant Pot because I’ve heard good things about it so…I’m curious to see what all they hype is about!
    2) I’m hoping an Instant Pot would help making meals throughout the week a little easier – it’s always a struggle at the end of the day.
    3) For dinner last night, we had our WW Zero-Point Homemade Chicken Vegetable Soup.

  2. 1. I would like an Instant Pot to ensure that whatever I take out of the freezer will be cooked the same or next day, and not wasted. I often take something from the freezer, and by the time it is thawed I don’t feel like cooking it. It winds up in the fridge, and often gets wasted.

    2. Meal prepping is a goal that I set, but have been very unsuccessful at accomplishing it.

    3. Leftover corned beef sandwich.

  3. What a great opportunity.
    I would love an Instant Pot to make meal time just a little easier. From what I hear you can have dinner on the table in a matter of minutes. Tha
    Would love to attain a weight that is sustainable, and realize if I ate a little healthier, that happen.
    Dinner last night was a healthy fish with vegetables.
    Thanks for this opportunity!

  4. I want to cook healthier foods in the Instant Pot. I am also about saving time. Beef Barley Soup is the last meal I made.

  5. I LOVE THE CONVENIENCE. I HAVE LOST 100 POUNDS AND WOULD LOVE TO HAVE AN INSTAPOT TO COOK HEALTHY MEALS IN. LAST NIGHT HUBBY TOOK ME TO WAFFLE HOUSE AS NEITHER OF US FELT WELL, BUT WE HAD TO HAVE SOMETHING. FELT YUCK AFTER EATING. WOULD LOVE TO USE IT AT LEAST 5 NIGHTS A WEEK

  6. 1. As a senior citizen, I would like to be able to cook without turning on a flame since I have twice forgotten to turn off the stove.
    2. I’d like to make healthier foods.
    3. Supper last night was leftovers from the restaurant the night before.

  7. I would like an instant pot because I used to use a pressure cooker and enjoyed the results. Roasts come out so tender and everything cooks faster. An instant pot would be better because it times the food for you and has more features to make cooking easier! There are also many more recipes to try than ever before.
    Can’t wait to start!
    I have tried to do more exercising and movement but with little progress! Still trying to think of good enjoyable ways to do it!

    Last night I made Beef Barley Soup for dinner.

  8. 1. I want an Instant Pot because it is a fast way to prepare food.

    2. One thing I have been wanting to accomplish with little progress is doing my taxes.

    3. Last night, I had turkey & white sweet potatoes & carrots.

  9. 1) I think I would use it because it would cut the cooking time down significantly to make things like winter squash and black bean recipes.
    2) I want to lose that last 10 pounds and keep my weight stable
    3) A green salad and weight watcher baked eggplant parm
