Slow Cooker and Instant Pot
Dinners that cook while you do something else. The slow cooker chicken tacos are the current anchor: chicken, salsa, and spices, done in 4 hours on high or 7 on low, ready to shred for taco night.
Every recipe gives both timings where they matter, slow cooker hours and pressure cooker minutes, so either machine works.
This collection is just starting out. Every recipe below is complete and checked, and more land here every week.

Questions cooks actually ask
Can I convert any recipe between slow cooker and Instant Pot?
Mostly yes, and the recipes give both timings. Lean chicken does better on low in the slow cooker, and dairy goes in at the end in either machine.
How long can the slow cooker stay on warm?
Up to 2 hours without quality slipping. The recipes say when to add delicate ingredients so nothing turns to mush.
