    Could this be converted to the instant pot with a 3 pound roast?

      Yes, definitely! I would cook the roast on high pressure for 15 minutes per pound. You could even brown the roast on both sides before pressure cooking if you want, although that's an extra step. Great idea Rachel! Thank you 🙂

Hey there, I'm Kori.

I’m a culinary school trained chef specializing in holistic nutrition and wellness. I’ve always been a major foodie, and as I’ve aged, the full impact of my love of food—and not-necessarily-healthy eating habits—caught up to me. In an effort to make positive changes in my life (and hopefully yours, too), I created this website where I could share great-tasting, craveable, healthy recipes.
