I asked my email subscribers what slow cooker or Instant Pot recipe they made the most often. I received over 250 answers. It was so fun for me to read what you enjoy making regularly. Sometimes the recipes I make the most often aren’t the most exciting but they are important, basic staples that I can’t live without.
I’d like to share the results of my survey with you today. I think you might find it interesting and maybe you’ll gather some new recipes to love at your house.
