Make Using Your Instant Pot Easier

Accessories can make a big difference in how you use your Instant Pot. Here are some of my favorites:

• Extra silicone rings (because I goofed and made my original ring smell like salsa – forever).
• A glass lid for when I use the Instant Pot as a slow cooker. I like to be able to see inside the pot while things are cooking!
