First Time Instant Pot

Yesterday I tried using my new Instant Pot to start cooking our own beans instead of buying the cans. It was definitely a learning experience but I felt so proud of myself for choosing another step towards a healthier eating approach. I can see that this will also be much cheaper than buying canned beans.

My main learning point: dry beans will expand a ton. I ended up with probably 3 times as much as I had expected to make. I just froze the rest which is great! We will see how they end up when we defrost them.
