Enjoying time with family with traditional dishes such as homemade cranberry sauce is what memories are made of. In this list we did not sacrifice flavor for nutrition, rather they worked hand in hand. Keeping it simple, easy and fast means more time spent together.

It's a busy time of year for those in the kitchen. It seems like lately everyone has dietary restrictions for one reason or another. The last thing a host would want is for a guest to go hungry or worse, get sick from something you fixed. It can be stressful figuring out what dishes will make everyone happy and full. There are plenty of options out there to satisfy the variety of needs when friends and family come to the table. So here are some Instant Pot vegan recipe ideas to help you out in preparing your menu.
