Pressure Cooker Loaded Mashed Potatoes

Last Christmas I gifted myself a Crock-Pot Express Crock Multi-Cooker because I wanted to get on the pressure cooker bandwagon that has been all the rage for a few years now.

At first I was a little apprehensive about using it. it. One Sunday afternoon, I sat on my couch for a few hours reading the instruction manual over and over again to make sure I didn’t miss a step.

The very first recipe that I made in my Crock-Pot Express Crock was beans. Dried beans, water and a pinch of salt and now I am never going back to canned beans again. Not when I can cook them in a matter of minutes and save money in the process! The best part? The Crock-Pot Express Crock Multi-Cooker can cook meals up to 70% faster than traditional cooking, so I get to spend more time enjoying my friends and family than cooking in the kitchen.

So, when Crock-Pot contacted me about doing a couple of recipes using their 6-Quart Crock-Pot Express Crock (they also come in 4-Quart and 8-Quart sizes too!) I jumped at the opportunity to share some Crock-Pot Express Crock recipes with you all. With the a blog name Crock-Pot Ladies, I have been hesitant to venture out of the slow cooker recipes for fear of losing interest with you dear readers. But I have faith that Crock-Pot Ladies’ fans are loyal and are even open to the occasional Crock-Pot Express Crock recipe.

I think I am going to do more…
