Does anyone have any good pressure cooker / slow cooker / instant pot recipes?

I've tried to use a slow cooker in the past a few times but everything was just bland and watery.

I love my slow cooker and use it daily. These are some of our favourite recipes.

Aw thanks @Moongirl69 i do love my slow cooker like

you’ll need less liquid @GladiatorReady I make all sorts, casseroles, chilli, pasta bakes, bolognese, fajitas, enchiladas, curries. Just put veg at the bottom and rest meat on top like pork chops or a roast chicken is even lovely. When I first started using it I just got the sachets to get used to them but even if you look on the back it tells you what herbs are in the sachets so I just started buying the herbs and doing it myself!

if you have Facebook search for UK slow cooker recipes, tried and tested!
They have some good and original recipes

and the bbc good food have good recipes too xx

I use my Instant Pot every day and get recipes from youtube but mine are vegan and veggie but there are loads of meat ones. Google recipethis.com she has loads of tips and recipes for Instant Pot and Slow Cookers.
