Instant Pot Lid

Did you know that your Instant Pot has a slower cooker function? It does! You can use this lid, instead of having to throw on the bigger clunkier top in using the slower cooker function. It’s just what you need! {order here}

Vegetable Steamer

This little steamer basket is pretty fabulous. Yes, you can totally steam some amazing vegetables or tuber roots in it, but it’s a great tool for when you want to cook two things at the same time to give it some yummy flavor and to multitask. Potato salad? No problem! Put your potatoes in the bottom of the pot, and then put your eggs in this basket. Done. {order here}

Pressure Cooker Steamer Baskets

This an accessory that’s sure to win you over! It’s a 2 tier steamer basket set to where you can steam cook 2 different things at one time. You can have your fish or chicken in one basket, and your veggies in the other, or whatever two food items that you want to cook simultaneously. This is almost on my must-have list of accessories. {order here}

Replacement Rings

Please take my advice and JUST BUY THESE! The one major complaint that you will always hear from people is that “My ring smells”! If you keep these on hand, you change out the rings certain types of food. For example, you can use one to cook all of your savory dishes in and the other to cook your sweets. PLUS you never know if you damage your sealant ring. {order here}

Instant Pot Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

If you want to get into the world of sous vide cooking, which happens to be a fantabulous world, then you’ll totally want this attachment for your Instant Pot. It helps to make the most succulent meats, and delectable fish you’ve ever experienced. I got a Sous Vide as a Christmas present for Derrick last year. {order here}

Beer Can Chicken Holder

I find this instant pot accessory to be simply genius. Anything that can hold a beer while cooking is genius! Cooking with a can of beer in the process helps to flavor the chicken (or turkey or meat) and keeps it nice and moist. Just think of all of the different flavor profiles you can create with the different types of microbrew beer out on the market! {order here}

Yogurt Cups

If you’re starting out on your Instant Pot journey, then you’re totally gonna want to make your own yogurt! People are making gallons of it, and these yogurt cups are just the perfect thing you need to store your freshly made yogurt. {order here}
