Are you busy? Like, REALLY busy? Like “picking up takeout is a nice dinner” busy?
I get it!
Most people I know I hardly have time to eat let alone cook a two hour dinner! Nowadays meals have to have a prep time of less than ten minutes or they just don’t happen.
Introducing…

When the instapot came out on the scene it changed my life!!! I wasn’t a believer at first. I received my insta for Christmas and thought, oh boy another kitchen gadget to gather dust. I have never been so wrong in my whole life. I mean it can cook a whole potato in 4 minutes!
#GameChanger!
Here are the best instapot vegan recipes for those days where all you have is 10 minutes to cook a healthy delicious meal. You’re welcome 🙂
