Some of the delicious easy vegan recipes have been made in an instant pot. I love either the 6 quart Instant Pot DUO or the 8 quart Instant POT Lux. The 8 quart is perfect for cooking for a large crowd or meal prepping large batches of food and it comes in handy during holidays such as Easter and thanksgiving.
I use and highly recommend the 6 quart Instant Pot for daily use. It’s perfect for a family of 4+, stainless steel insert and has 14 smart program settings.
