Good Morning Friends! I have been having all kinds of fun with my Instant Pot. If you have been checking out my Instagram or Snapchat you know I've been cooking a TON with it. I am shocked that so many people have been checking out my first post "Meal Prep: Instant Pot Edition" that I wanted to create a part 2 with more healthy, tasty recipes you can use throughout the week!
All these recipes below will be used as breakfast and lunches for me throughout this week. I'm on my last week of Country Heat and want to make sure I am using my containers 100%. I know the more tasty clean foods I have prepped in my fridge, the more likely I will do just that!

All these took about 90 minutes total to make! As one was cooking I was cutting, prepping the next recipe. I had a good factory line up going and let me tell you my kitchen smelt amazing!

I wasn't sure how this next recipe was going to go. I had to give myself a good pep talk to make this. I wanted to make this to use as breakfasts for the week and took the plunge and went for it.
I am SO happy with the results...
