[quote=Anonymous]Do you have an instant pot, or an oven with a timer? My main oven doesn’t, but I have a countertop convection oven / air fryer that does. In that or the IP, I can start something on a 40-minute timer, and it’ll turn off and keep warm until we get home. The oven works well for many casseroles - lasagna, baked ziti, shepherd’s pie, cheesy potato/sausage dish, enchiladas. They’re fine, if not better, sitting on a keep warm setting for 10-20 minutes. The IP is great for pulled pork/chicken, curry (have rice pre-made and ready to microwave for a minute or two), pork chile verde, braised beef. Add a bagged salad, sliced vegetables (cut ahead of time), or steam in a bag green beans / broccoli (2-4 minutes), and maybe a bag of dinner rolls, and dinner is on the table within 5 minutes of walking in the door.[/quote]
