YUMMY! Use ground beef or ground chicken for this recipe. You can also have the option to add potatoes for a full meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground meat
- 1 chopped onion
- 1 egg
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 small can drained mushrooms (I like to chop these)
- 1 cup milk
Options
- Thick sliced potatoes (about 1/2 ” slices) Sea salt and dry garlic grinder
Topping
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 4 TBSP brown sugar
Directions
Spray inner pot with non-stick spray.
Mix Meatloaf ingredients, shape into a round loaf and place inside pot, forming to fit.
I like to form meatloaf more to one side of the pot and add thick potato slices stacked up in the remaining area next to the loaf. (If you decide to add potatoes, season them now with sea salt/garlic.)
Make your meatloaf topping and add to the top of your loaf.
Close and lock Instant pot lid and make sure the Steam Release Handle is in “venting” position. Choose the Slow Cook key and adjust (using – or +) for time. Then adjust for Temperature (using the Less/Normal/More keys – Less=Low/Normal=Med/More=High)
Cooking Time:
- LOW 6-8 hours or on HIGH 4-6 hours

Fast (frozen to ready to serve in 35 minutes) Delicious Healthy
If you divide the chicken to make four servings, the chicken alone will be 215 calories a serving.
Ingredients
- 1 pound frozen chicken breasts
BBQ Sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 3/4 teaspoon McCormick’s Barbeque Seasoning (or any brand you like) • Dash red pepper flakes • 1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning • 2 teaspoons honey
Salad fixings
- Lettuces, spinach, tomatoes, pine nuts, walnuts, flax seeds, shredded cheeses, etc.
- Salad dressing of your choice (yogurt based dressings are especially delicious)
Directions
Spray the bottom of the Instant Pot with nonstick spray. Place the frozen chicken breasts and 1/3 cup of water in the pot and put the lid on. Press the steam button and set the time to eight minutes. (The pot will come to pressure in about eight minutes and then cook for eight minutes.)
While the breasts are thawing in the Instant Pot
- Prepare your salad fixings and place them in into serving bowls.
- Mix together in a separate bowl the BBQ sauce (ketchup, BBQ seasoning, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning and honey.) 3. Taste the BBQ sauce and adjust it to make sure it is the way your family prefers. We are a fairly low sugar family, so you may want more honey.
When the Instant Pot beeps that it is finished, throw a dish towel over the top and do a quick pressure release. Remove the top. With the chicken still in the pot, use a large fork and long sharp knife to slice the chicken into 1/2 inch strips being careful to not touch the sides of the hot pot. The chicken will be raw in the middle but easily sliceable. Pour the BBQ sauce over the chicken and mix with a heat safe spoon. At this point, it looks like chicken in a watery tomato soup.
Press the sauté button and set the time for 18 minutes, which will likely be too much time. This will come to a good boil, but will not splatter on your kitchen because the Instant Pot insert is so deep. For the first 10 minutes you can work on other things in the kitchen and just visit the pot, stir a little, turn chicken over, etc., as you monitor the progress. However, as the sauce thickens, it is important that you stay with the pot and monitor the sauce. So, for the last five minutes, you move the chicken around in the pot a little while the sauce thickens and sticks to the chicken. When almost all of the sauce has stuck to the chicken, remove the chicken to a serving tray. Turn the pot off. IMMEDIATELY pour 2-3 cups of water into the Instant Pot to keep the remaining sauce reside from sticking and burning to the pot.
Lay the chicken on top of the salads and serve. It is so good.

I used to simmer chicken all day to prepare this recipe. With my Instant Pot, it comes together so much faster! These are very mild (not spicy), creamy chicken and corn tortilla enchiladas. If you like your enchiladas spicy, you will need to kick it up a notch by adding heat to the chicken mixture – that’s what the optional peppers accomplish. These reheat well, so you can make them early in the day and then reheat at mealtime.
Ingredients:
Makes 12 enchiladas that are 250 calories each.
- 1 pound frozen chicken breasts
- 2 cups water
- 1 10 ounce can Green Chili Enchilada Sauce
- 1 8 oz package of Neufchatel Cheese or reduced fat cream cheese
- ½ onion, green peppers, hot peppers (whatever you like to spice it up) optional
- 1 cup chopped spinach (optional but highly recommended for nutrition)
- 12 whole grain extra thin 6 inch yellow corn tortillas (Mission brand is 80 calories each)
- 3 ounces of grated cheddar cheese (or as much as you prefer)
Instructions:
- Place frozen chicken breasts in Instant Pot with 2 cups of water. Put lid on, press poultry button and set time to 30 minutes. When beeps finished, either let sit or release pressure immediately based on how much time you have. Pour off liquid and save to use as a weak broth for other recipes.
- With chicken still in pot, shred chicken with two large forks and then add the package of Neufchatel cheese, the spinach, any onions or peppers you might want and 2 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce. Press the Sauté button and use the heat to soften the cheese a little so you can easily combine the contents of the pot. You are not really sautéing anything, so don’t walk away or leave on Sauté for more than 60 seconds.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a shallow baking dish that is large enough to hold 12 enchiladas with nonstick spray. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling into the middle of each corn tortilla and roll the sides up to form an enchilada. Place seam side down in the baking dish. (Don’t worry if the corn tortillas crack a little in the process.)
- Slowly dribble the rest of the enchilada sauce over each enchilada in the baking dish, making sure to wet the top of each tortilla completely. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Place in the preheated 400 degree oven. After 15 minutes, remove the aluminum foil. Continue to cook in the oven until bubbly and cheese is melted (about 10 minutes).
I serve with a side salad, but Mexican rice or black beans would be yummy.

- When beeps that finished, allow to depressurize normally.
- Remove lid. Using two forks, shread chicken breasts as much as desired in your soup. (Chicken should shred easily and be thoroughly cooked. If not, replace lid, push poultry and cook a few more minutes.)
- Stir the soup a little, but not too much or you will mush the vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste. Replace lid and let sit on “keep warm” for about 30 minutes to fully integrate the flavor in the chicken.
- Serve with freshly baked whole grain rolls. Yummy.

- When Instant Pot signals that the chicken is finished cooking, remove lid and place chicken on a baking sheet. Then place chicken in oven or on the grill for 15 minutes or until skin is crispy.
- Remove chicken from oven or grill and set aside in a baking dish to keep warm.
- While chicken is in the oven or on the grill, strain the chicken broth into a bowl, place broth back into the pot, push SAUTE button.
- Add honey, Balsamic or Cider vinegar and seasonings to the chicken broth. Stirring occasionally, simmer the sauce until it thickens and coats a spoon like syrup, may take from 10-15 minutes.
- After sauce has thickened, turn pot off, adjust seasonings to your taste and pour the sauce over the chicken, coating each piece evenly.
We serve with multi-grain rice and a salad or vegetable.

Ingredients:
- 1 Chicken (cut up or you can use boneless chicken breasts and thighs)
- 1 tsp. Coriander seeds
- 1 Yellow onion (Spanish)
- 1 tsp. Fresh grated ginger
- 1 tsp. Garlic powder (or fresh garlic)
- 2 tsp. Garam Masala powder
- 1 tsp. Chili powder
- 1 or 2 chopped Tomato
- 2 tbsp. Oil
- Salt to taste
- Cilantro leaves for garnishing
Marinade:
- 1 ¼ to 2 tsp. Chili powder (depending how hot your chili powder is and how hot you want the dish)
- 1/2 tsp. Turmeric powder
- 2 tsp. Ginger powder (or fresh grated ginger)
- 2 tsp. Garlic powder
- 2 tsp. Coriander powder
- Juice of 1 whole lemon

Directions:
1) Mix the marinade ingredients then smear all over the chicken. Cover and keep in refrigerator for 15 minutes to an hour.
Note* I rub the marinade mixture all over the chicken and then put into a vacuum seal bag and vacuum seal on moist setting. Then I put in the refrigerator for an hour. This does a really good job of marinating the chicken.
2) While the chicken is marinating, chop the onion, measure out the spices and chop the tomatoes.
Heat oil in InstantPot on Sauté setting.
3) Add coriander seeds to heat and let some of them pop. Then add onion and sauté, until they turn translucent.
4) Add ginger and garlic powder, garam masala, coriander powder and chili powder and sauté for a minute.
5) Add tomatoes and cook, until they become soft.
6) Add chicken pieces and sauté for a minute.
7) Add 1/2 cup of water and salt. (No water required for boneless chicken)
8) Put lid on and set to chicken setting and adjust to 10-15 minutes. If using boneless chicken you can cook for about 8 minutes.
9) Place chicken on plate, spoon up the tomatoes and onions, and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with Chipotle style rice.

My parents came to Canada in 1948 from a war torn, impoverished country where they only cooked with the vegetables they grew and ingredients they bartered from neighbours. They made a wonderful life for my brother and I in Canada and Cabbage Soup was our weekly staple food. Much of anything can go in it but I will present it the way we had it. They wasted nothing. It was always served with mashed potatoes (if potatoes not cooked in it) or with rye bread from the local bakery! My mother is now 94 and unable to cook for herself. I now provide her with meals and thanks to the electric Instant Pot, I manage to cook a wholesome cabbage soup and many other soups for her in a very short time. It took Mom hours to make it.
I first of all make the broth:
Ingredients:
- Chicken Carcass and or chicken bouillon or chicken broth
Weekly I purchase a rotisserie chicken from Costco. We use the meat for fresh sandwiches. When the carcass looks like it has had it, I break up the carcass, still have the wings and place it into a pot I have that goes into the pressure cooker – looks like a sieve but in pot form. I use this pot so I do not have to strain it when done. If you do not have this pot (used to come with the stove top pressure cookers) you can just put everything into the interior pot of the pressure cooker and cover with water.
Pressure cook the carcass for 60 minutes. When done just strain through a sieve. You now have your broth. Throw out the cooked carcass and bits.
If you do not have a chicken carcass to make the broth, you can use broth from a can or powdered chicken bouillon mixed in water. At any rate I have about 8 – 10 cups as I make a large amount for our family. I use both the carcass, covered with water and also add powdered bouillon because it has salt in it….therefore I do not add any extra salt. It is not an exact science. Use as much or as little broth as you like.
If you are using premade broth or bouillon in water , of course you would not be pressure cooking it at this time….no need, only if you are actually using a chicken to home make the broth with.
Rest of Ingredients:
- ½ of large onion diced
- 2 stalks of celery, diced
- 4 cloves garlic smashed and diced
- 2 large baking potatoes, peeled (some like to leave the peel on), quartered lengthwise and sliced into ¼ inch slices. If you do not eat potatoes, just leave them out….still delicious
- 1 clean tomato from the garden – cut up
- 1 bay leaf
- Around 3- 4 cups Fresh cabbage – shredded – depends on size of your cabbage
- 2 – 3 cups of drained and rinsed sauerkraut. I use my own that I make, but I know you can purchase it anywhere in jars. If you want the soup more or less ‘sour’ you would adjust the sauerkraut accordingly.
- Ham or garlic sausage, or a smokie, or leftover cooked pork/chicken cut in small pieces….or no meat if you are a vegetarian. Still tastes good. Sometimes mom diced bacon, fried it and put it in. Like I said, they used what they had and wasted little.
- Carrots diced – as many as you like.
Method:
- Put a couple of tablespoons of oil into the pressure cooker pot.
- Press sauté function
- When heated up, put in the onion and celery and sauté until onion is translucent and soft – to bring out the flavour. It takes just a few minutes.
- Then add in the garlic and sauté, but careful not to burn as it will be bitter then.
- Put broth back into pot with the onions/celery and garlic and add all the rest of the ingredients.
- Choose the soup cycle on the pressure cooker and cook. When done, serve with parsley garnished on top!
Absolutely delicious, full of fibre and flavour and very easy and economical to make. Takes no time at all!
Enjoy!
