Adventures of a Nurse | Instant Pot Recipes
Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Every year we buy a Butterball Turkey it seems to be much juicier than any other Turkey without any extra work like basting or brining the bird.
Butterball conducted its first-ever consumer survey this year for a pulse on Thanksgiving preppers’ expectations and realities when it comes to one of the most important meals of the year. The survey found:
- Two-thirds of Americans rank Thanksgiving as one of their favorite holidays.
- Two-thirds of Americans like to incorporate new traditions into their celebrations…many of which include cooking up new and different recipes for loved ones to enjoy.
- Out of all things Thanksgiving preparers cook up, they’re most proud of the turkey. And 88 percent prep it the old-school way: in an oven.
- 84 percent feel excited about preparing the meal, and 74 percent of Americans don’t expect Thanksgiving to be perfect.
- It’s the turkey! Despite the overall positivity around the holiday, first-time millennial preparers are still feeling the pressure. Eight in 10 first-time cooks worry about cooking the turkey correctly. This number drops among experienced preparers, but still 43% worry about getting it right.
I have to say I agree. I make my turkey in the oven and I use my instant pot for my side dishes. Here is my top 10 Thanksgiving Instant Pot Recipes. This year Butterball wants me to help spread the word and give one of my lovely fans a free turkey! Enter below by commenting what your favorite Instant Pot Recipe of mine is.

Thanksgiving is definitely my favorite holiday because it’s food, family and gratitude. I love Christmas but not the materialism that retailers push. This will be my first thanksgiving as a “pothead” and I’m so excited. My speciality is deviled eggs and my magic pot makes it so much faster and easier! I will be trying some of your recipes, too. From another nurse…happy holidays!
