Dietitian Approved!!
I purchased this book for myself for Christmas, and I thoroughly enjoyed thumbing through it Christmas morning! I marked lots of recipes I want to try (see pic above). I am such a fan of Maria Emmerich—her style of Keto makes the most sense to me based on my own health goals as well as what I know about others—which is why she gets my “dietitian seal of approval”. ♥️I don’t have an Instant Pot <yet> but do have a pressure cooker. I thought I would try some recipes in it first, and then purchase an Instant Pot if needed. In looking through these recipes, I love that there are directions included for slow cookers for many of the recipes as well. This style of cooking also makes sense for busy families (especially if they will be gone all day and want to come home to a meal that’s already done) so I’m glad she took the time to adapt recipes for both. As with all of her recipe books, there are some consistently great things to note. For this book, there’s a nice introduction which explains the difference between the Instant Pot, pressure cookers and slow cookers as well as many other useful Instant Pot tips. The recipes are nicely organized and include pretty pics plus nutrition information. There’s a visual recipe index at the back of the book which includes a tiny snapshot of each recipe; there’s also an allergen index, which is so helpful in today’s world of folks with one or more food allergies. I’m super excited to try these recipes and see if my pressure cooker will work. I did see a number of recipes that require Instant Pot gadgets and accessories, so it’s quite likely that I will need to acquire additional items if I wish to fully use this book. In the meantime, though, I can always use my slow cooker. It’s win-win really. I have other slow cooker recipe books but they aren’t designed for Keto (so I don’t use them). With this book, I have a Keto slow cooker book at a minimum, and a source of inspiration to step it up with an Instant Pot if I want to take it to the next level. :)

Best of Maria’s books- and most time saving
I’ve been a fan of Maria’s for years. Her recipes taste great and also keep me feeling my best. I have an Instant Pot but I knew I wasn’t using it to the max. I was really looking forward to this book. I have all of her books - and now I think this might be my favorite.I have endometriosis. Eating keto keeps me healthy and pain-free. This year I also had my keto baby girl. I finally able to conceive, but things have been very busy. We haven’t had a lot of time to have home cooked food since I started back at work. I love to cook, but I don’t have time. The cookbook has both slow cooker and IP directions. We can make IP dinner and prepare something in the slow cooker for the next night.Our family has a lot of food allergies, some sort of unique (dad’s onion and basil allergy). We are all allergic to gluten (I have an epi pen). I sent one to my parents and one to my sister. The recipes and directions are so easy my teenage son wants to start making meals from it. He’s starting to use the slow cooker too, so this is a good book for him to have at the house.Finally, we had all been sick this past week and had the immune boosting soup (page 132). My husband isn’t keto but he smelled it and said it was irresistible. Our daughter had some of the broth and absolutely loved it. Came together quickly and was easy enough to make while the baby was distracted for a few minutes.Thanks to Maria and her family. They’ve done so much for us, and they don’t even know us.

Just what I needed for my new Instant Pot
After reading several posts by friends on social media about their love of Instant Pots, I decided to gift myself one for Christmas. One of the justifications I used for the purchase was due to the publication of this cookbook. As a keto dieter, I wanted to have the convenience offered by pressure cooking but without the carb-laden recipes I was seeing online. This cookbok by Maria did not disappoint.As always, Maria explains the methods, tips, tricks, and some of the science behind the diet and ingredients in an easy-to-follow and beautifully illustrated way. The recipes are perfect for novice cooks or novice instant pot cooks. For experienced cooks, the recipes serve as a great base which allow for customization or modification as well. Detailed macro information is included for strict keto adherence, as well.My only regret, at this point, is that my larger Kindle fire tablet refuses to charge and I'm stuck using a 7 inch tablet in my kitchen while trying to cook. Even Maria's magic touch isnt going to solve that problem.If you want to try an instant pot, keto dieter or not, this is a great tool in your kitchen. I am looking forward to the coming publication of Maria's Air Fryer cookbook to add to my library, too.

Exciting!
I look forward to trying some low carb recipes for the instant pot. I’m a fan of Maria’s recipes from a nutritional standpoint, as well as ease to make, and flavour. I wanted her Instant Pot book because I want to get better use of the appliance, and stay low carb.

Excellent book
Every single recipe we have tried has been great. It goes fast, ingredients are easy to find, and everyone is happy! I was surprised at how well cabbage works as a pasta replacement!

Perfect for a new instant/slow cooker user!
I received a slow cooker for christmas so was looking for a good book for a newbie to slow cooking and this was recommended to me as I have been low carb for over two years.The book contains a lot of useful information for a beginner around the use of your pot, and specific instructions on using a slow cooker, rather than instant pot, for each recipe. It's obvious that thought went into making this an all-in-one solution for anyone looking to get into low carb slow/instant cooking.I cooked the ham and cauli au gratin the other night and it went down extremely well!My only negative would be the use of cup measurements rather than metric, but that's just me being a picky european!
