INTRODUCTION

Not one, not one, of the healthy pressure cooker recipes in this book is more than 350 calories per serving! Think about it. That means you are able to keep your calories in check without having to constantly tally up! If you want dinner in an instant (which is what the Instant Pot and other electric pressure cookers make possible) and wouldnt mind also being thinner in an instant (which 350-calorie dishes can help you achieve), you have come to the right place.

The recipes in this cookbook range from a low of 120 calories per serving to 350 calories per serving. Now, thats not just for a small serving of lean meat or a bowl of veggies thats meat and potatoes, one-dish meals, meatless entres, desserts etc. Get the idea? They never exceed 350 calories period!

Calories, if you dont really pay attention, can escalateand escalate fastbefore you even realize whats happening. But who likes being told they cant have something they want, like something substantial and fillingand tastyfor dinner? I certainly dont.

So I figure out ways to have it, and have it within the boundaries. Thats my job to deliver great tasting recipes within calorie boundaries, ones that are fast, high in flavor, easy, and, by the way, economical!

ARE ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKERS REALLY THAT GREAT?

Electric pressure cookers can keep you from using the excuse But everythings frozen or Im out of time to cook at home. Those excuses will pack in the calories when you call for delivery or go through a drive-thru. Learn to rely on your pressure cooker instead. For example, you can

Start a recipe using frozen vegetables

Thaw and cook frozen ground beef and turkey in a matter of minutes

Cook solid-as-a-rock frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts in minutes that are t-e-n-d-e-r and juicy without any stringy, chewy, tough resultsseriously

Cook a dish that normally takes hours in a hot oven, or on a back burner that has to be monitored, in a fraction of the time

Cook dried beans without soaking and serve them in about 35 minutes from dried to table

Make quick pressure cooker croutons and hardboiled eggs to include in a fresh green salad for a meatless entre (with the promise of easy-peel, zip-off egg shells)

Bake potatoes that actually have the same flavor as those baked in an oven for more than an hour in a fraction of the time

Those are just a few examples to show that electric pressure cookers really are that great!

TYPES OF RECIPES IN THIS BOOK

The varied recipes here include some protein/vegetable combinations, some protein with pasta or rice, while others can be served over veggie spirals, sauted veggies, or riced veggies as a base, as well as soups, stews, and desserts. No matter what you choose, though, the calories will not exceed that 350-calorie cap!

Theres a wide range of recipe typesfrom Mexican, Italian, and Asian to Middle Eastern, Southern, and all-Americanthat includes traditional beef stew and the popular ancient grain bowls!

The recipes in this book are designed to serve four. I felt there was a definite need to go that direction with so many smaller households just starting out or downsizing a bit. I found that the majority of electric pressure cooker cookbooks on the market include recipes designed to serve more. There are some recipes in this book that serve more than four, but only those that can freeze successfully so you can have them for another meal down the road and they are tagged to let you know that.

SIMPLE INGREDIENTS, SHORT DIRECTIONS

The electric pressure cooker is designed to make cooking fast and more convenient, and to help retain the nutritional benefits of your food, which is all great. But I went a step further and did not include long ingredient lists or complicated, laborious directions to help keep it simple.

The ingredients in these recipes are all mainstream and easily available. There are no special trips to special stores for anything at all!

Ive written the directions in a way that will make cooking with an Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker less intimidating. I was overwhelmed at first (probably like most of you), so I promised myself I would keep that in mind when writing the directionskeeping the recipes simple to follow and even simpler to prep!

Since I dont know what type of electric pressure cooker you own, Ive created healthy, low-calorie recipes to work in any standard electric pressure cooker. So whether you have the basic model or the latest and greatest, you can make these recipes with successful, delicious, and healthy results!

Im not taking you into every button on the pressure cooker, because each brand is a little different. But they all have a Manual button and a Saut/Browning button of one sort or another. Since I want to keep things s-i-m-p-l-e, thats all Im using throughout this book for your cooking functions the Manual button and the Saut/Browning button only (and the Cancel button to switch between the two cooking modes).

Im keeping this simple for you, so youll be able to make these recipes again and again; after all, isnt that what its all about? I always say, if a recipe is difficult or time consuming, youll make it once in a while (maybe), but if its easy and fast, youll make it and want to make it again and again and that is what helps you enjoy staying on a healthy track!

TIPS, TRICKS, AND HACKS FOR HEALTHY AND LOW-CALORIE PRESSURE COOKING

This chapter provides helpful Did you know? bullet points on shopping, ways to add free flavor, when to add that free flavor, and how to pack more nutrients into your dishes. It also includes pointers on which kind of small and inexpensivebut importantkitchen items will be very useful in making pressure cooking work for you!

EXTRA (VERY MINIMAL) EQUIPMENT NEEDED

Trivet (generally comes with your pressure cooker)

Collapsible steamer basket

4 (6-oz, or 170 g) custard cups for desserts

8-inch (20 cm) nonstick springform pan for desserts

Food scale for accurate weights of ingredients

Ruler for measuring /-inch, /-inch, and 1-inch (1, 2, and 2.5 cm) cubes

Aluminum foil for slings

1-quart (946 ml) resealable plastic bags for degreasing

Paper towels for skinning chicken legs and thighs

POINTERS FOR FAST AND HEALTHY COOKING

When purchasing bell peppers for stuffing, choose the wider, fatter variety rather than the narrower ones. Theyre easier to fill and keep their balance better while cooking.

Watching your carb intake? Pick up a package or two of frozen riced veggies or spiralized veggies or thinly slice low-carb veggies, such as zucchini, yellow squash, or snow peas, and cook a couple of minutes in the microwave to use as a base instead of rice, pasta, or potatoes.
