Comfort food, by definition, provides contentment. It's associated with a sense of home, and it often brings people together. But there's something else that always seems to tag along with those hearty, comforting meals: a sink full of dishes.

Well, we hate to sound like a broken record, but there is a solution to that problem, and it's the Instant Pot. Yes, that slow cooker, pressure cooker and stove-top stand-in can also add "dishwasher-putter-out-of-business tool" to its list of attributes. (Maybe not; that is kind of a long one. But you get where we're going.)

Sunday Sauce

If Sundays in your house typically involve a big pot of meat sauce and a table full of family, you're in luck: Using your Instant Pot means you'll have more time to spend with your actual family. This sauce is fully loaded with pork, beef, sausage and meatballs, and it doesn't require frequent stirring.

Chicken Adobo

Let the pressure-cook setting on your Instant Pot prepare this simplified version of a traditional Filipino comfort food. Juicy chicken thighs cook in a tangy-sweet sauce the whole family will love. Best of all, there's only one pot to clean up.
