I have a 3 qt . If all the ingredients stay within the 2/3 line of the pot liner, you can use the recipe as is without having to make adjustments. Just make sure you do not go above the max line inside the liner.

Hi Joan, yes, I believe most of the recipes are for a 6 quart. Usually, the recipe will specify if it’s for the smaller pot. I don’t have the 3 quart so I can’t say for certain, but I do believe most of these can be converted by simply using half the ingredients. The only problem might be if that reduces the total liquid too much so that the pot won’t come to pressure. Just make sure that when you cut the recipes in half, it still leaves whatever the minimum liquid requirement is for the 3 quart.

Hi Shellie, I didn’t search for recipes that were exclusively freezer dump meals so not all of the recipes in this menu will work that way. However, Once a Month Meals has awesome one-month menus of Instant Pot freezer dump meals. Check them out here.

I do not, but I’m adding that to my to do list right now! I think a lot of readers would find that helpful. Thanks for the suggestion.

Typically recipes for chicken thighs have longer cook times since bone-in chicken takes longer to cook. Cooking time for breasts can vary quite a bit depending on the size of the breasts. If you’re using large breasts, only reduce the cook time by 2-3 minutes, if small or tenderloin size, reduce cooking time to 8 minutes total. The chicken breasts will be drier than thighs so only do this in recipes with plenty of liquid and/or a sauce.
