This Instant Pot recipe for Pressure Cooker Turkey Lentil Taco Filling<\/strong> is the perfect dinner solution for Taco Tuesday!<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This recipe is adapted from a slow cooker recipe in a wonderful\u00a0new cookbook, Fast to the Table Freezer Cookbook: Freezer-Friendly Recipes and Frozen Food Shortcuts<\/a>, from my good friend and fellow Utah blogger, Becky from Vintage Mixer<\/a>.<\/p>\n An Instant Pot is one of the most popular brands of electric pressure cookers. They are easy to use and your Instant Pot can help you create this delicious Turkey Lentil Taco Filling!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The cookbook doesn’t contain any pressure cooker recipes, but many of the recipes could easily be converted\u00a0into pressure cooker recipes. If you need help learning how to convert conventional recipes to make them in a pressure cooker, check out my post –\u00a0How To Convert A Recipe Into A Pressure Cooker Recipe.<\/a><\/p>\n The reason I’m excited to share the cookbook on Pressure Cooking Today is the great freezing tips at the front of the cookbook. Freezer meals make dinner prep so quick and easy!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I like to use the Divide and Portion Method Becky elaborates on in the cookbook. Then I use Ziploc freezer bags to freeze things in individual portions. When I made the Instant Pot recipe this time, I divided the pressure cooker turkey lentil taco filling into single serve portions for quick lunches and dinners.<\/p>\n Becky also talks about freezing in other containers, jars and rigid plastic containers. I know many pressure cooker enthusiasts freeze their stock<\/a> in round containers that fit easily in the pressure cooker so they can pressure cook the stock without thawing. Pressure Cook Recipes uses ice cube trays to freeze\u00a0their pressure cooker stock<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’d love to hear your tips for freezing the great meals you’re whipping up in your pressure cooker.
