recipe rut....looking for non-slow cooker ideas

[squaretaper LIT AF PE]

We have reached a recipe rut with dinner ideas.  Any non-slow cooker favorites out there

I've been going to town making cast-iron pan pizzas. I make a quick and dirty no-yeast dough (I use 1 tsp baking soda), let it rest in the fridge for a couple hours (ideally overnight, but not required). The cast-iron makes an amazingly crispy crust. *drools*

Easy Korean ground beef:

-Cook your beef and drain grease

-In separate bowl, mix green onions, red pepper flakes, 6 cloves garlic, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 cups soy sauce, 2 tbsp. sesame oil. 

-Combine and let the sauce reduce and thicken.  Adjust brown sugar as necessary.  Serve over rice.  I like to add snow peas to mine.

A little late, but over the winter I made a ton of congee. Unbelievably cheap to make and easy to mix up toppings.

So you can track your cooking progress in the comfort of the other room!

I think it's kinda funny that they have BT as well. LOL.

Haha, I guess that makes sense for people who live in a home that bigger than three rooms plus a bathroom, and more than 850 sq ft!

Actually the yogurt feature is kinda neat!

 

[squaretaper LIT AF PE]

But can it brew beer?

Agreed! I've never made my own yogurt, but eat Greek yogurt regularly.

This. Having come of age in Davis, I don't think I've started a day without yogurt and granola in almost two decades!

Uhh, they come with Bluetooth? Why the heck do they need Bluetooth?

The one I ordered appears to be without Bluetooth.

But seriously, why does it need Bluetooth?

Of course! This KFoxPC approved! Which one do you think I purchased?

Or from work given the correct application of adapters that connect to net. And no, I'm not worried about someone hacking my Instant Pot.

I had to see it for myself.

C'mon MA, everything has BT now. Even my electronic cat feeder!

And Yogurt! And so much more. I have quite a few saved recipes for it already too that I could share.

Please do!

A food blogger I've been following for years also got one some time a year or two ago, so I'm finally going to check out her instant pot recipes that I mainly ignored before.
