The Instant Pot is a great kitchen appliance! It’s hard to believe it’s a new “craze,” when pressure cookers have been around for a long time now. But once you have an Instant Pot, you’re going to want to have the right Instant Pot accessories to make cooking even easier!

The Instant Pot is a great new treasure in our house. So many recipes can be made quickly, like our favorite Instant Pot chicken noodle soup recipe made from frozen chicken!

Now that we have the Instant Pot, I needed to start to look at what accessories would help even more. And, these would make great holiday presents for friends who have Instant Pots. Take a look at these Instant Pot accessories.
