The Instant Pot is the best thing ever when it comes to your weekly meal prep because you can cook things in half the time and have yourself organized for the work week without having to make a whole bunch of different recipes on the weekend.

You should actually consider getting a second Instant Pot if you already have one because it makes it that much easier to make two different recipes at once and have a little variety in your lunches each week.

Lately, I've also been using the Instant Pot to meal prep my dinners so that I can focus on working some extra overtime hours in the evening. There's nothing better than getting through a whole day of work and knowing that you have your dinner all whipped up and ready for you to microwave.

I know this way of cooking can be ideal for both single people and families as it lets everyone pick and choose what time they want to eat and accommodates for different schedules.

You can also use all kinds of fun garnishes to make these Honey Garlic Chicken Bowls even more delicious – just add some green onions, hot peppers, peanuts, sesame seeds… the sky's the limit!
