Today I’m going to show you three easy instant pot recipes that will reduce how much time you’re spending in the kitchen preparing meals for yourself and your family. Let’s get started.

Breakfast – Protein Pancake

I love the idea of being able to sit down with my family and have a wonderful breakfast, but that’s just not my reality. With this recipe, I’m able to mix everything together, put it in the instant pot allowing me to spend more time with Garrison as we get ready to start our day.

Ingredients/Prep:

2 1/2 cups of protein pancake mix
1 1/2 cups of milk
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 eggs

Whisk together
Open your instant pot and spray cooking oil. this will ensure your pancake won’t stick to the pot when it’s finished
Pour in pancake mix
Set pot to manual setting on low for 40 minutes
When the pancake is ready get your spatula and go around the edges of the pot to loosen it so you can take it out
Add a garnish and or syrup of your choosing

Lunch – Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Most days my lunch consists of chips or whatever food Garrison has left on his plate. But I can’t survive on that, nor can you survive on whatever you’re nibbling on. You need food guys and with this next recipe, you’re going to get something that’s not only a quick fix but healthy too.
