1 MINUTE INSTANT POT CHEESY POTATOES

QUICK RECIPES

I love any recipe where I’m able to set my Instant Pot to 1 minute. It’s magic happening in there!

USE YUKON GOLD POTATOES

I prefer using Yukon Gold potatoes for this recipe because they are naturally creamy and buttery inside, perfect for cheesy potatoes. Also the skins are very thin so there’s no need to peel them.
