Okay, I admit it. I’m not a big fan of football. Anyone else?

I grew up in a sports-loving home, and I will gladly watch baseball, hockey, or basketball.  But football is a different story.  Mostly because I have never really understood all of the rules and terms.

What is a down, anyways? Off sides? Forget about it. I know what a field goal and touchdown are and that’s about it.

But, like most people, I do enjoy the Super Bowl for the commercials and the halftime show.

And of course, the best part of all is the food that comes with it! Ooh, there’s a break in the commercials. Let me go refill my plate with chips and dip.

Instant Pot Party Foods

Sometimes preparing party food for a crowd can be a lot of work when you add it all up. Appetizers, dips, something salty, something sweet, etc. etc.

One way to simplify party food prep is by using your Instant Pot! There are so many tasty options of party foods that can be made in the pressure cooker.

Whether your oven is already in use for other food or you just want to save some time, I’ve rounded up some great ideas for Instant Pot party foods.

    I have visited the back roads of Georgia where folks make boiled peanuts to sell in iron kettles in the side yard. And they are delicious. But, I will say, this recipe is even better. I made mine today in an 8 qt. IP using medium grind Himalayan pink sea salt (that is the only sea salt I had on hand – don’t judge me please). I used a springform pan weighted down with a heavier dish inside it to submerge the peanuts because the springform pan covered the peanuts entirely. I cooked them at the suggested heat and length of time. I will say that I waited…and waited for the red button to show that the heat had been released and, finally, after a couple of hours, couldn’t wait any longer to taste the result. Not surprisingly, all pressure had been released. And, OMG, these peanuts taste amazing. They are less salty than those I have tasted before. And, this is terrific because it allows some of the natural sweetness of the peanuts to shine through. The blend is the perfect blend of salty/sweet taste and a wonderful tender/creamy texture. If you love boiled peanuts and make this recipe, drink lots of water and don’t check you weight for a few days. They are so worth it!
