I don't have an instant pot, but I make something similar to @Dani4Hedgies but using heavy cream instead of the evaporated milk, and low carb pasta

I just bought an Instant Pot, I got the 7-in-1 6 quart model. I can't wait to try it out. I need to clean the kitchen out first... it has gotten really, really messy since I have been dealing with the cancer - surgeries, doctor appointments and radiation treatments every weekday. And working full-time; or as much as I can. It has been taking up too much time and energy.
I want to try Mac and Cheese in my Instant Pot. My DH likes the blue box stuff, it gives me a gut ache when I eat it.

Sucks that you're dealing with all that.
But, I hope the instant pot helps you out! I love mine!

Lol, I've been using an instant pot for months here, and didn't know that's what it was called. We made a big roast in it yesterday for company. We really like it. My son brought it when he moved some of his stuff here. We like it a lot.

Hello! 
I have had the instant pot for about 6 months now. I mainly use it for making plain yogurt - which we use on or with everything. Our dogs eat a spoonful a day and I use it with fruit or as a replacement for sour cream.
I have also made lots of other things - chicken from frozen, pot roast with potatoes, lasagna, etc. I love it.
The only thing is that there is a learning curve, so I have to continually look at recipes - but generally I do that when making new things.

Hi @LadyBugg , welcome to the group! I haven't tried making yogurt yet, but we eat a lot of it too.

It is relatively easy. I think I messed up a few times and it still turns out.
I like a thicker yogurt, so i strain it once it's done.
